#layoffrumor

Word around town, next week is round 2.

What is the percentage of layoff completed in this round? And is there another round coming?

Anyone know how Bartlesville is fairing in the layoffs?

Asking because we're getting nothing our manager. Total silence.

heard rumors about more lay offs coming in December (including lower level) & a 5 day work week coming back. any confirmations?

Managers are currently in meetings after being asked to rank their employees. Not a rumor.

Did they have layoffs in Estero?

Hearing lots of rumors… anyone have any info?

I heard from a reliable source

If that’s the case, good luck to all of us.

Someone said Joe is gone? Is this true? Seems highly unlikely to me, he seems like one of the only good ones at that level.

I can’t imagine more cuts would come this year, anyone think otherwise?

Prediction of 70 employees will be laid off before Nov.

With impending layoffs at Verizon of ~15-20K on 11/20, it would be ideal for TMo to offer a special plan for former VZ employees. Easy way to win new lines!

Hearing Friday will be some layoffs. Anyone else?

Nancy Clark is gone from Value but got a promotion. So 11/20 may be right but what part of it will be wrong? I’m thinking it may not be a bloodbath.

So I suppose we’ll know something a week from tomorrow, 11/20.

We’ll be looking out for the email or mgr “can you step into my office?”

Is it true all ROC personnel CPM'd this week?

Now, I know this is all speculative but I wanted to see what people think if a layoff is coming. If yes, how big is it - 10%, 15%, 20%. I've heard different things in the office, people are freaked out and talking but it's all just rumors so far. Also, which groups will be affected and locations. Good luck all.

I like my coworkers and my work, but I live in constant suspense. Every quarter I’m wondering if I’ll be next. The job market isn’t helping, so I feel like I should start looking now before this company pulls the rug out from under me. It’s stressful living like this.

We're supposed to have layoffs on November 20, and yet every day somebody posts about this or that group being affected by cuts. Are people lying or is there really an ongoing pre-layoff happening, and if it is, what's its point?

Something is up. A few of my peers told me they stopped getting their usual invites for calls and meetings. Seems like the process may have already “unofficially” started.

My supervisor says I’m safe, and not to worry. He’s always been straight with me, but part of me thinks “what else would he say”…

Has anyone else been reassured that they are safe? I guess I will know for sure by Friday evening…

Anyone else stopped receiving as much email traffic, mtg invites or tasks from your mgr?

Ive worked here long enough to sit thru at least 5 strategic shuffles, and I’ve never seen leadership this tight-lipped... All this while morale sinks sooo fast.

Dan keeps talking about building a leaner company and bold changes, but all we get are buzzwords and MORE SILENCE. It’s the same canned lines on earnings calls & the same trust the process nonsense in internal metings... and meanwhile we’re supposed to act like we dont see the layoffs coming a mile away.

Everyone already knows something big is happening by November 20... the rumors are everywhere, not just this site.

Yet instead of addressing it head-on we get happy emails about embracing agility and AI transformation (what the fu-k is that).

People are anxious, scared, updating resumes on company time, and pretending to care about the future vision while half the teams are quietly being gutted.

If you really believe in being a transparent leader, prove it. Stop hiding behind corporate PR.

Tell people what’s happening so they can prepare. We’re adults indeed and we can handle the truth.

What we can’t handle is another round of fake optimism from execs posting champagne selfies on linkdin while the rest of us are bracing for impact.

If this is your idea of leadership, it’s no different from the Hans era - just with better lighting + fewer vowels in your buzzwords.

Are we done for w/in next 24 months?

Any ideas what this meeting is about?

Getting prepped for resume building and job interviews.

Months ago before Dan, my leader said we need to worry when upper management starts resume and interview prep talks come into play.

Mostly higher ranking, left on their own. I'm guessing this is a sure sign that we're closing?

ConocoPhillips is in the process of executing a huge layoff.
One thing they’re doing is offering Expressions of Interest for those employees interested in leaving voluntarily. This will give a number of employees the chance to stay that otherwise would have been laid off.
P66 could have done the same thing but that wouldn’t have caused near as much heartache.

Seeing posts discussing some of the orgs and rumors of how hard they are going to be hit, wondering what it's looking like for GN&T

If so, what orgs were impacted?

I have already asked my supervisor and he does not know.

I thought more layoffs were coming in November?

Buyout. No unemployment claims. No discrimination lawsuits. Improved morale for those who choose to stay.
But then, this is Verizon so…
Layoff. Unemployment claims across the board. Class action discrimination suits for each protected class (age, race, s-x). Fear and unrest for the employees not laid off.

So, what's the scoop and how many will be laid off? Who do they target.

Do you know if we'll have job cuts soon and whos affected? Also, are they planning to close any stores and what's the impact on Shake Shack corp?
