#layoffrumor

Was anyone in engineering impacted? It seems like this was mostly a retail layoff.

As if Oracle needed any more weight added to the anchor around it's neck that is OpenAI.
This is sooooo bad, like devastating.

Overheard leaders discussing lack of meeting business needs is hurting SDS & heads will roll. Anyone else hear this?

Any layoff in 600

Any more left?

I've heard talk about RIFs later in the year. Any talk about Early Retirement being offered?

MO advised that the company will commit to providing a date by the end of July to confirm whether roles are impacted by the new organisational design. Has anyone heard any intel on numbers, percentages, or which parts of the business are mostly impacted? It all seems very quiet… the calm before the storm.

Word from any Virginia stores?

What about Fios managers? Are they safe and is Autullii safe?

Just received an invite to a team meeting for H&CC in my region for next month which is very rare, could this be something we are all dreading:/

Any layoffs confirmed for Verizon Business Group?

Did Synopsys give a voluntary layoff option? I rather take this instead of being here and rob someone else of being here. If I send email to HR will this back fire?

Heard rumors days prior but haven't heard much, out here in the west coast down in the SD team????

What’s up with the story about a liquid selloff in Dell over the coming months?

I'll say somewhere between 50 and 60.

Welp... 20 years in, have a 15 minute meeting with my Director in 20 minutes... VCG Ops

is there any new data about this topic?
we are waiting for several month to be laid off or sold and it really disrupts the work flow and motivation, everyone is waiting so everything is very slow and unmotivated......

I heard a rumor in November that management had no decision in the personnel that were fired and that it was all determined by AI. Can anyone with HR intel verify if that is true and how are layoffs being determined for the next round?

Did anyone get notification today?

I just feel even tho stocks crashed, they will just keep us lol as I don't see any layoffs happened in recent years

the whole thing su-ks and it has been going on a long time. heard rumors that it is mainly going to impact frontier any thoughts on that?

How realistic is it? How big? Who's safe or not?

Looks like another round of layoffs recently based on the open to work posts on LinkedIn. Anyone know how many?

Just be aware, your people time trash already has a list of names for people being terminated come February

Sounds like Evanko wants to start his tenure off with a layoff this Thursday. Good luck!

I hope they are not publishing this unless it’s from a credible source? Like a band 4 or up.

Any word on Value layoffs? I have heard about a reorganization of people. But, no specific details on how people will shift around in the DK organization. I suppose with the departure of Ken this was inevitable, and with the serious reduction of resources and capex we have alot of “strategist” and product managers not really doing anything.

I wish leaders would remember how this anticipation made them feel. Please comment anonymously. Do the right thing.

I've seen people starting to relax because they think the layoffs are winding down. That's a mistake. If you look at what's actually happening, it's pretty clear that we're not done yet. Anyone who thinks we're close to the end is going to be very surprised.

I'm trying to find out if we're looking at cuts in August. Anyone hear anything?

Managers in SLC, UT have stated that either August 4th or the 18th will be the day for a big displacement, especiallyin the QA department. Does anyone have any solid/confirmed information on this information?

One manager said for certain it would be the 4th. But can they know for sure and able to truly provide such information about displacement dates?

I can't believe anyone is falling for the "I got notified today!!" bullsh-t. You literally saw a massive layoff in November.

Just a refresher - 15 minute meeting scheduled the morning of by your leader, over around 11, all hands for the survivors. No meeting invite goes out for the all hands, you just get a ping with the link (or at least that's how it went in my department).

Anyone who says they know they're getting laid off as early as today is a liar and nobody with any actual knowledge is going to post it here. You will know Thursday. Period.

Surely, Oracle knows where the next round of layoffs in September are going to be? Probably Cerner, maybe Sales, maybe OCI, other places, if I had to guess from my uninformed internal location. So, why is management letting 150k people just generally wonder about if they're going to be next, and give current employees some sort of heads up? It's ki-ling all internal workflows with letting everybody think that "they're next", when it doesn't have to be that way.

Was there any indication there'd be cuts today?

Please comment updates on 7/16 layoffs as of today.

I recently saw a post mentioning that another round of layoffs is scheduled to begin on July 27th. Has anyone else heard or received any information regarding this?
