They're trying to get you to quit
The company treats us poorly and are cutting compensation because it costs a lot less for them if we quit than if they lay us off. They're trying to make it bad for you so you quit. Don't. Slack off and get laid off instead. Start looking for new jobs now and focus the next couple months on the job search before layoffs. Take as much as you can from them if they don't respect you. Make them pay you to get rid of you.
Layoffs/RIFs
Are there any upcoming layoffs/RIFS in IT departments, besides SRE?
Updated Department Specific Layoff
If you have been laid off recently, What department were you in and what band level? I see a lot of Evicore people are being laid off. I'm wondering if this applies to any other Cigna preauthorization department? Customer Service reps? IT teams? etc. Also, were you given any notice, or were you laid off immediately without notice? I'm just trying to see where Cigna is going with this. The suspense kinda got me what to just quit and go full force with my side business.
Count of people go got layoff
Like the post if you got a layoff. So we can get a count of impacted people.

I broke the news to my own boss I was laid off
Just in case anyone is wondering how organized this project is. But not to fear -- the packet confidently tells me I can ask my boss about any questions I have. I have every confidence she will be a great resource to me.
I wonder what they called it -- something joyful and upbeat no doubt -- Project Sunshine, perhaps?
Are you kidding me no bonus
This company has to be one of the worst companies out there. I was let go in October so my 60 day ls notice period ended in December, I’ve worked for wells for over 20 years and I’ve gotten a bonus every year. But nothing this year! This is a low blow even for Wf to take away a bonus for no reason to someone that worked for the company that long.
Cobra coverage
What happened to Crown continuing coverage throughout the severance period? I just filled out the continuation form and Crown is paying $38 and I am paying $2000 per month. This is my 3rd lay off in 25 years in the industry, its never been done with less respect and support than what Crown has shown. I will be surprised if the severance really shows up and I have no faith in the bonus actually being paid out. What do you expect from a company that allows unlimited drinks on the cooperate card?
When is the next round of layoffs?
March or later?
Anyone ready to give their notice...
Now that the bonus pay has been posted. Or is it safer to wait till Friday once it hits the bank account?
COSI Layoffs Reflect Broader Nonprofit Job Crisis
COSI and the Ohio History Connection recently experienced layoffs. These job reductions contribute to a wider nonprofit sector crisis. Eroding federal funding exacerbates these challenges for organizations. COSI laid off 15% of its staff due to attendance and funding issues. The Ohio History Connection also reduced 30 full-time positions.

Back on topic
analyst take on ROK:
One of the first companies to address industrial automation, Rockwell Automation (NYSE:ROK) sells products that help customers extract more efficiency from their machinery.
Why Does ROK Worry Us?
Organic sales performance over the past two years indicates the company may need to make strategic adjustments or rely on M&A to catalyze faster growth
Earnings per share have contracted by 1.5% annually over the last two years, a headwind for returns as stock prices often echo long-term EPS performance
Diminishing returns on capital suggest its earlier profit pools are drying up
My take. Layoffs will continue in low amounts. Leadership and the board are cautious leaders who value their options over growth. If you are good. Leave now. If you are less than good. Hang on. Most will hang on.
Performance Review - Layoff
Does my performance review increase/decrease chances of being laid off?
Enough with the layoff doomsday news
To everyone freaking out potential layoffs:
1) Ask yourself the question, would they really have another round after laying off so many people?
2) why spread the pain out over a long period? Most firms, just rip the band aid and get it over and done with in one go.
3) most of the fat has been trimmed. What's left is some muscle and bone.
4) our stock is through the roof, aliviating any pressure from Wall St. No need to take out any further costs
5) the only people served by all the layoff talk are disgruntled ex Vz folks or current employees who think we can cut our way to prosperity
Layoffs in India?
I joined last year only and love this company and people but I found this website. Here people are talking about the layoffs happening soon and im worried becaus I just started. Who is also in India getting laid off? Thanks
Constant layoffs - the American way
Whoever posted this on Reddit is right. This is why Unions in the United States are of the most absolute importance. If you did this in like let's say Japan? People would see this as a leadership failure and start to distrust the company entirely... In Sweden,? They'd be paying out these employees so long that the short term gains they might want to see before ramping up again in hiring would not warrant going through this. It is truly only in America that this sort of thing is seen as feasible.
How many are being laid off?
There have been a few posts or comments saying there will definitely be layoffs next week. Does anyone know the percentage of people being let go? 20 percent? 50? More?
