I received a layoff notice on Monday

I want to know if I will be pushed out the door before my last day with pay for 60 days. My official last day stated on my layoff notice is 60 days from Monday. I also want to know if there is any chance they will take back layoff notice and keep me around.


You are all in denial if you don't think layoffs are going to happen at Oracle. With that being said your best option is to

resign from your boring Oracle jobs and pack it all up and move yourself to West Virginia and apply to Coal miners' jobs there. Every coal mine is West Virginia is hiring coal miners right now. These jobs pay high wages and offer excellent benefits, and you can work all the overtime you want to work. You get to work with some pretty cool equipment as a coal miner. The only problem is you have to pass a mandatory and random dr-g tests. Let's face the music about that because a lot of you at Oracle, especially Gen Z's aren't going to pass a dr-g test even if you are d-mb enough to try and fake it.


Is this legal?

My role was eliminated in the last RIF wave with a term date of 2/6. I was told it was due to cost pressures and not performance as I have always had high performance ratings but did unfortunately need a couple medical leaves last year. However, LESS than 20 calendar days later, my exact role was posted internally at one grade level lower. I still had my work laptop in my possession and hadn't received my severance check. The role is now posted externally. Is this even legal? I'm wondering if I have a case to call employee relations due to retaliation.

Please be kind in your responses, this is traumatic enough.


Stratacache Reduces Workforce Amid Cost Challenges

Stratacache has laid off some employees from its operations. CEO Chris Riegel confirmed the workforce reduction. The company cited tariffs and global supply chain difficulties as reasons. The number of affected employees is below Ohio's WARN threshold. State officials have not received a WARN notice from Stratacache.

Wells Fargo Employee Replacement Pool?

I realize this site is a minute fraction of total active employee count, but I have an idea...

Wells needs to have a replacement pool. It would be made-up of laid-off people who are willing to return and swap-in for one of the worthless, retained people Wells truly needs to get rid of.

You would return with years of service, future severance based on prior years of service, prior earned annual PTO days, 401k matching, etc. Salary would be negotiable. People who actually want to work and who are truly competent,

I think I need to pitch this to Wells.

Mesa Public Schools Board Approves 50 Staff Layoffs

The Mesa Public Schools Governing Board approved 50 staff layoffs. This decision stems from declining student enrollment. The district anticipates an $18.3 million funding loss next year. Affected roles include teachers, specialists, and instructional coaches. Most positions will end after the current academic year on May 22.

Cordani and Evanko town hall

I’m still trying to unpack that strange farewell town hall Cordani threw for himself.

How could neither DC nor BE acknowledge the layoffs that happened less than 1 week prior to this event and that are still ongoing?

I don’t even know what I expect from this conversation. I think I just need to know that everyone else thinks it was eff’d up and awesomely tone deaf.


Layoff running totals based on Slack

Tracking participants count #general Slack channel in Oracle One workspace, as the fastest available proxy indication of ongoing layoffs.

  • mar01-mar10: 395 layoffs, and 358 additions (based on Slack regular tracking)
  • feb01-feb28: 943 layoffs, and 1143 additions (based on Slack regular tracking)
  • jan01-jan31: 1604 layoffs, and 1834 additions (based on Slack regular tracking)
  • dec01-dec31: 1031 layoffs, and 844 additions (based on Slack regular tracking)
  • nov01-nov30: 1614 layoffs, and 1327 additions (based on Slack regular tracking)
  • oct01-oct31: 2504 layoffs, 1762 additions (based on Slack regular tracking)
  • sep02-sep30: 6275 layoffs, 861 additions (based on Slack regular tracking)
  • aug14-sep01: 733 layoffs (based on Slack very few data points)
  • aug01-aug14: ?2900 layoffs in IDC (based on media reports)

Regions outside IDC and NA usually have a significant delay when laid off people are disconnected from Slack (e.g. 1 month in Pacific regions, perhaps longer in some EU countries), so this is a floor estimate with additions reflected immediately, but reductions lagging behind on average.

Layoff estimates are partially part of normal attrition, but the other part of normal attrition is already hidden due to additions and removals compensate each other when they happen at the same period of time.

I will post daily in comments on the count change and running current month total while this post is still on the first page.


Let go

Today was my last day in Enterprise Technology. I can't say I'm surprised, this position wasn't really right for me and I could see my own performance for what it was. Nothing unfair. I'm just curious if there's a trend going on in other parts of the company too.


Reminder email from HR,even after Docusign completed

I got Riffed recently, few days ago completed the docuSign, surprisingly today got a reminder email from HR mentioning that they sent the DocuSign, and there's an expiry date hence I should complete and send it within due date. Did anyone experience the same (after completing the docusign getting a reminder email)..anything need to be done in this case?


Anyone volunteer for a layoff?

Has anyone had any success "volunteering" for a layoff, knowing that layoffs are being planned? I'm so close to retirement that I would welcome being laid off, plus doing so would likely save someone else on my team from being laid off. If we can be fairly confident that layoffs are being planned, would it make sense to let your boss or higher up leadership know that you'd be open to a layoff package? Has anyone successfully done this recently?


FT contract

The contract will be revoked and all the people servicing FT will lose their jobs, that's how this farce is going to end. They keep firing experienced people for a bit of saving and hiring unqualified juniors in their place. This is not a valid strategy and both the clients and FT feel that, and it's already happening. I wish it wasn't so but it will happen sooner or later.


The waiting game

I'm so tired of this. People who want to leave, who'd love a severance package, are stuck here waiting for the axe to fall. The company drags it out like we don't have lives to plan. This was a good place once. Really was. Now it's just gray and empty and I don't care anymore. I hope everyone here lands somewhere better whether they stay or go.
