#layoffrumor

Heard from someone close in Galway, that the office visit wasn't a normal check-in. Leadership flew in (higher ups haven't been to office in forever), held a handful of closed-door sessions with site heads, and apparently the word "consolidation" came up a lot. My source says there's a plan to cut operations roles across the EU offices, not just Ireland, and that it kicks off in January 2027. Supposedly the timing is meant to land after year-end peak and Q4 so it's "clean." No idea on numbers, but people are saying it's big. Take it with a grain of salt, but I'd start updating your CV.

It looks like NIO was excluded from any layoffs today. Does that mean Lori's org is spared from this round of cuts? or could it happen in the coming weeks

express scripts anyway. tons of employees on my team just got scheduled for 15 minute meetings today and thursday all at different times, people starting to ask about it

Get ready folks. Guessing most know what’s in store later this week. Layoffs and more layoffs! If you’ve been a bottom feeder this may be you chance to get a nice package or not. Go seent a previous post of SWN layoff dot com about the layoff tips and tricks. Saved some dignity for sure. Good luck, everyone. May the layoff not be with you and stuff.

Hiring Freeze
Fixed Cost Reductions (Riff/Furloughs)
Layer Removals

Who knows what’s in store for the near future ?

My manager said there are no more layoffs planned for the remainder of 2026, but she's said that for the past year and clearly doesn't know what she's talking about. Do you all know if there are any more scheduled layoffs, or if the DCG/CCG was the last of it?

As most of know the next big layoff is slated for November being dubbed as Red November. It starts towards end of Oct and ramps up in Nov till Dec 2nd week.
I doubt October will be Red, not more than typical atleast, compared to November.
Has anyone heard anything else from higher up connection?

I am panicking

Spain had a major backlog over the last three years compared to other European countries when it comes to the Pekka cuts plan... Are you seeing any actions to catch up and close the gap in these final months of 2026?

I've been here for five months and my pay is among the lowest. I'm assuming I'm not exactly the type of employee they'll be targeting? Or am I wrong?

WNY claims dept is combined with bluecard home and host claims now. All employees in this department are cross trained. Rumor is union meeting the end of the month to advise of reduction in wf in this dept by half...can anyone confirm or deny this?

If true, who is the deep throat? I encourage everyone who hears a rumor to contact the speak up line and report who said what, when and where.

Only HR and VP+ are likely under the tent. If roles were reversed there would be no mercy cast on you.

Any updates on the rumoured risk layoffs that supposed to be getting announced imminently.

Or was it all just bullsh-t rumors?

Do we think the amount of layoffs over the last few months amount to 400 million savings.

Next earnings call will be interesting 🤔

I haven't heard anything myself, but if it happens I think it will be this week. I hate living under this omen of layoffs. The last weeks of September and first of October seem to be a waste while everyone waits to see if it is them this time. I think a lot of people want it to be them so they can just move on.

I'm asking about October.

Layoffs on the horizon for sure. Managers have been asked to identify their most vital team members over the past couple of weeks.

I heard before that managers have no input when it comes to layoffs. Has this changed?

Is this true?

Are we expecting additional layoffs or not?

Somebody must know something. Please share.

Is that when we think layoffs will start?

Well-founded rumors have it that management has finally decided to close the site in Cluj, Romania. Some employees have already been kindly advised to start looking for jobs elsewhere.

Does anybody have any details?

I'm not sure what I hate more: when there are all kinds of rumors going around or when it's completely quiet, and I can't help but think it's the calm before the storm.

For those positions with optum whose jobs are being offshored in ECS, specifically care coordinators in pre and post acute the first round of layoffs may occur on 10/14 with more to follow.

Does anyone feel like the “beyond” timeframe was just to cover themselves to lay more people off year round and into the next few years without giving any more notices?

For those who have posted that there are additional layoffs in October can you please elaborate more. What market your in? Is this across the company? I get it that there are always layoffs happening in this type of company but I thought we would be good for at least a year. I get people like to cause fear as well but is there actual proof of late October layoffs?

It is awfully quiet in Plano and on this platform. Anyone has new info?

See post from someone in HR saying they got layered off Friday. Small targeted layoff or impacts other groups?

Do we think they will ask for people to volunteer and get a package or just be hacking away next year?

Lots of rumblings about 10/6 for IT. Good luck out there.
