If a person has been treated unfairly, whether an employee, a customer, pushed out of the job, laid off unfairly, etc decent companies address these issues. Those that aren’t, like JLL-Corrigo, instead do everything to try and remove the truth. Not a good company to work for!

How do you find out what level your position is?
I’ve seen posts saying N4 and below are getting laid off
I don’t know what “level” my role is. Is there a place in workday to see it?

This was already discussed in 2025, but wanted to get people's thoughts on how this would impact the Siemens Healthineers business?
Is it because Siemens AG doesn't see the Healthineers business as very promising? Would this move potentially lead to budget cuts/lay-offs for Healthineers folks?

We lack vision and long term planning. We opt for layoffs because it's the easiest option to free up capital when our stock is going down the drain. We forget that the employees that we let go have context and knowledge domain expertise. By the time we realize, we're going to try and patch it up with rehiring but getting ramped up and onboarding takes time. At the end of it, we would have lost capital, opportunity cost and market share. I genuinely want to know who is driving our transformation and strategy? Are there not any business case studies we can look at? How many companies have successfully pivoted away from third-parties to DTC? Even Apple sells their products at other stores. How many companies have succeeded in GC? For a company of this caliber, I would have expected that we have some risk-based assessment when making these plans. I'm sure Nike would have its own Harvard business case study one day at this point.

@kp+1krea8g33 hits the nail on the head.

The news comes in an especially delicate context for tech employment. In just five months of 2026, companies in the sector have accumulated nearly 140,000 layoffs worldwide.

I'm new here, I'd like to know what I'm facing.

you do not want to work at dell and you dont want to invest here. get out

I am consistently astonished to observe that during every layoff at Walmart, none of the leadership seems to be affected for an extended period; they often return to the same position or role at Walmart after being impacted.

Positions such as Directors, Senior Directors, Group Directors, VPs, and SVPs are rarely affected here at Walmart. Additionally, their employer benefits could potentially save hundreds of jobs for individual contributors who genuinely provide significant value to the organization.

Ultimately, it is the individual contributors who truly bear the brunt of these layoffs.

The calls to stop spending money and the pain continues..... our customers and our network continues to suffer, let's not get into how much the employees are suffering. What is Stinky doing to AT&T...?? We are told to save a dime, but then he spends millions on stupid cr-p.

Why is he still around?
Why hasn't the board asked for his resignation...?
Are the stock holders and board members as blind and as stupid as he is..??

We are definitely in a spiral downhill... sad to see how much the company and upper management continue to fail us all.

The deal is underwriting with fine details. The mobility part of the company will be fully managed by two well-known companies from India

So any action before they announce?
Usually this month is supposed to be last month we see any action...

My site is pushing hard on metrics for client facing phone roles in brokerage. They are putting any below the national average on key metrics like CPH on an “unofficial” PIP. So, lots of people getting put on a PIP.

I’m hearing from other site leaders this is a strategy to push reps up or out, documenting everything and focusing more on tenured reps.

Anyone else affected by this or seen this play out before?

I am from India, but went through the University -> H-1B -> Citizenship route a while ago in Tech space. At that time, there was no fraud or offshoring, and very few select people got an H1B. I really appreciated the opportunity provided to me.

Now I am seeing all these young kids from the US are being short-changed with offshoring. Any US layoff or attrition is being filled offshore. That mandate is coming way, way above. If you don't provide opportunities for young kids, what will happen to the next generation? This is 100% wrong. I want to take someone fresh out of school and mentor them with what I've learned - but all goes offshore. Almost like seeing Manufacturing going offshore in the 80's and 90s.

I am not sure why nothing is being done... I feel like people here are more subservient and submissive than in other countries. (sorry)

I am hearing rumors of another round in DGE later this summer... If that is what is going to happen, I assume those layoffs will happen by the end of July. that way there is 60 days of WARN notice before the end of the fiscal year.... good luck everybody.

If you're smart enough to read between the lines,

More people are going to be cut next quarter where people remaining have to adjust to the new normal

Why tf they can't just tell us directly??

No longer can get a masters degree? Are these clowns really continuing to go down this cost savings route? We already have zero job growth with no new positions anywhere in finance (and other depts). Whatever, the company su-ks now and I’ll just do the bare minimum until I find something better

A new Mercer study reveals 99% of surveyed CEOs anticipate AI-related job reductions. These cuts are expected within the next two years. Entry-level workers face the highest risk of displacement. Some companies like Meta and Amazon have already cited AI for recent layoffs. However, consumer AI usage remains low, and some firms find AI implementation costly.

Gaston County Commissioners unanimously approved $10 million for Gaston County Schools. This funding addresses a shortfall and prevents up to 400 potential layoffs. Superintendent Morgen Houchard had warned of immediate layoffs without the money. The school district previously eliminated 174 positions months ago.

Pittsburgh Public Theater announced the elimination of 11 staff positions on May 19. This decision follows the theater's board vote to merge with Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera. The merger is set to finalize in January 2027. Financial constraints and foregoing a traditional fall season necessitated the staffing changes. Former managing director Shaunda McDill's contract was also not renewed days prior.

Bay Area tech companies continue to announce significant layoffs. Oracle, Meta, and LinkedIn are among those reducing their workforces. Despite these job cuts, recession fears remain low in the region. The current pace of layoffs is slower compared to 2022. Many laid-off tech workers quickly secure new employment opportunities.

So I heard that we’re not retaining any non tenured Rosemont employees except for one of the Veeps. How is this a merger? Sounds more like a real estate transaction.

massive layoffs this Thursday.

Has this been confirmed?

I’m genuinely curious. Why are you clinging to a company that no longer wants you?

I was an IC that took initiative and did impactful work that improved the performance of my entire team many times but my manager’s actions showed that they didn’t appreciate me or value me so I volunteered to be laid off and I was.

Actions speak louder than words and I think many of them look down on their underlings. So why are you clinging to these arrogant a**holes?

Do year end reviews have any bearing on the upcoming layoffs ? Do direct managers have any input ?

Is it all cost related ?

Just saw a post on LinkedIn that was

Excited to share my next chapter at Xerox! And then the post went on to share that this person moved into a director role and how they will continue to help Xerox on the transformation journey.

What wasn’t said but I bet is true: 1) this person is part of the 20% moving up at Xerox 2) while others whine about no pay raises this person created their pay raise 3) this person will continue to change Xerox for the better.

Congrats to another 20% worker changing our company for the better. Yes this was posted in the last 24 hours and this person moved into a new position after a round of lay offs.

Anymore layoffs coming up soon for WIM/Ops?

We’re only moving forward with automated eligibility for their DSNP plan you won’t have a role anymore.

Appreciate your business over the years.

Question for the people who were laid off in May, did you get your match true-up contribution last Friday ?
