#layoff

I wish I was told before hand that things were this bad for me , instead of just things seemingly to be okay.

Now I have no job/ no income and the job market is not great.

I hate the fact that even a record-breaking game launch can't save us from layoffs. What does it take, then? What the fu-k does it take not to get shown the door?

laid off and cigna sends us to a help desk in india if we have issues? zero transparency , zero accountability . what a joke of a company CIGNA EVERNORTH

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 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.

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.

Hawaiian Airlines will eliminate 48 nonunion positions. These job cuts are scheduled for May and June. This marks the fourth round of layoffs since the Alaska Air Group acquisition. A total of 418 employees have been laid off across these rounds. The company is also hiring 800 unionized workers.

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.

Lake Worth ISD Superintendent Mark Ramirez resigned. District trustees also approved staff layoffs. These cuts are part of a campus restructuring plan. The changes focus on Miller Language Academy. This follows state intervention for poor academic performance.

Don't sweat it, there is life after a layoff.

Keep a positive attitude and you will overcome this minor setback.

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.

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.

Are there layoff expected in Minimed to return to profitability, to boost share prices? Any thoughts

so be ready for the big layoff starting Monday 9-16-26.

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.

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?

I know of 2 people let go today- not sure if they were riffed or just fired.

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?

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 biggest layoffs are coming in 2 months

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.

Has anyone who was let go on the 19th received the email with the info on their bonus payout yet?

I got an offer, but I'm a bit scared to leave my current job even for better money because, what happens if layoffs start and I'm one of the newest hires? I'm just wondering how often do layoffs happen and if I'm among the last to have joined, how much danger would I be in?

Any intel when next wave of S&T layoffs across locations will be announced? Before Easter?

Layoffs have not started yet. We'll all know full well when they do.

Ferrara Candy Company will lay off workers at its Fairfield site. Sixty-nine employees will lose their positions. This action consolidates administrative services at an out-of-state headquarters.

Oracle plans to cut up to 18% of its workforce. This move aims to reduce costs and fund AI infrastructure. The company canceled a major AI data center expansion in Texas. This project was planned with OpenAI. Oracle is reassessing its AI capital needs and operational priorities.

Morale is in the gutter, and leadership clearly doesn’t care about keeping people motivated.
It’s ki-ling my ability to concentrate. Everything feels pointless when your work could vanish any day.
For anyone who’s been through this:

• How do you force yourself to stay productive?
• Do you keep performing at a high level, or just coast until it’s over?

Appreciate any realistic advice—especially from people who’ve survived multiple rounds.

I keep seeing more and more Cisco employees on Linkedin with "Open to Work" on their photo. Looks like there is quiet layoffs happening.

I know there’s a lot of frustration about the layoffs at Nike Corporate, EHQ Tech, and recently Converse, and I’m hearing there may be another one coming in Tech. Layoffs are always tough on people.

But an honest question after 3000+ roles were eliminated, what major capability actually stopped working or broke? It feels like most operations have continued as before which suggests there was significant organizational bloat that likely needed to be addressed.

Ultimately, growth will only return when the product lineup improves. Not by avoiding layoffs.

Does IBM RA mean you cannot apply to IBM or its subsidaries for any role in the future ?
Does your profile get marked as non-hire once you are let go on RA ?

I'm hearing of another large wave of layoffs that were announced this week (also confirmed by LinkedIn posts). It looks like it might be hitting BID and maybe the Carlsbad site in particular. Can anyone provide more detail on who was impacted?

If BCG has been in already, Mgmt knows where they are cutting. Its if it when...

QA, DevOps, Internal projects are going to be affected massively. In India, there will be heavy layoff at management level (VP, Director)

I'm not seeing this in a post. If you already have the $2000.00 in stock and are laid off will you still have it or do you need to bank actively employed for tge 2 year waiting period. I'm on medical leave and don't have access to Worday. They cut my access as usual. I feel once I'm actively employed I'm going to be laid off. TIA
