lay offs
Massive lay offs “restructuring” in May 2025 in all locations of Innovage. Poorly communicated & poorly planned. In 2024 & 2025 , they were hiring a lot of people & even giving referral bonuses, but only to be layed off. Up until a week before the lay off , they were hiring therapists. Suddenly they rescinded the offer, then maybe After a week, they laid off PT’s/OTs, rehab aides, etc. Why did they even hire so many, then lay them off.
Severance check date
I can’t find info on when we will get severance check.
Layoff on 12/3 before the tree lighting?
Is there any legs to the rumored layoff on 12/3 before the tree lighting?
CEO News
She was challenged several weeks ago on this board to go on CNBC to be interviewed and by golly, she did ! Albeit a soft ball interview with Sharon Epperson for DEI reasons.
Let's be honest here, if she interviewed with Jim Cramer, David Faber, or Sara Eisen, she'd be eaten alive trying to defend her missteps. It is ironic that even Roger Ferguson has appeared on CNBC as a contributor more times in the last year, then Duckett has appeared on CNBC in 5 yrs.
There are rumors and whispers she is losing internal support. All of a sudden, we see a flurry of activity from her lately in an attempt to save face and her job. So many speeches and public appearances that she has no real time to run TIAA like she is supposed to and this begs the question; who is really running TIAA ? She is paid millions and the company is chaos and no one is at the helm. She collects hundreds of thousands of dollars as a Nike Board Member & a pair of Air Jordans.
Instead, they have Jay Leno headline the TIAA FutureWise conference with the CEO laughing herself all the way to the Bank while many long term TIAA employees are being laid off. Shoot, maybe is she ran AI to run the company, it would be in much better financial shape today. It's funny how she criticized AI, but sold out to Accenture as they promised us the world with AI driven solutions which have not materialized.
TIAA FutureWise Conference (November 2025) In a discussion with CNBC, she advised that retirement investors should focus on building diversified portfolios and guaranteed income streams rather than worrying about an AI
Only GC TAC team has QA?
Why so many QA rules in TAC team? They just focus on case update timely or not. They don’t even have any technical knowledge! Even layoff BB QA and they can re-join TAC team as RB then keep audit TAC cases… So rediculous
What do you guys think the realistic numbers in FEB will be for WFR?
I'm thinking less than normal because NDA was pushed back a quarter.
Core sales field
How’s morale for you? I am exhausted from the layoffs. Wish they would just get the firing over with already. This place su-ks now.
Larger load Multiple Directors telling everyone they need to take on more of a load
I saw in previous post same thing was stated .Being told we need to carry a bigger load now.Im relieved to survive the rif but I’m just not sure it’s fair we now have to carry an even bigger load!I mean why should we be expected to carry our own load plus now everyone else load that was let go.Does anyone agree or should we just deal with the bigger load
Health insurance after being laid off?
Do you get health insurance benefits after they lay you off?
EV Battery Industry In Decline
What is RA's exposure to the EV Battery industry and how will it react to the reduction in demand? Is RA still using AlixPartners as consultants?
From a recent automotive news article:
Overcapacity Ahead
AlixPartners speculates that global production of EV batteries will be roughly three times greater than demand for EVs in 2030. By that time, EV battery production capacity in North America is expected to roughly quadruple.
According to Nikkei Asia, many manufacturers are already scaling back their ambitious battery production plans. Ford, one of the most aggressive investors in U.S. battery manufacturing, is a prime example. The company is building a $5.8 billion facility in Kentucky with its partner SK On, which is expected to employ about 5,500 people by 2030.
However, the Blue Oval already reduced its planned battery capacity by 35 percent. It also recently halted production of the F-150 Lightning indefinitely due to dwindling demand in North America.
General Motors has also been forced to make changes. It has been confirmed that 1,550 workers at the battery plants it operates alongside LG Energy Solution in Ohio and Tennessee will be sacked due to “slower near-term EV adoption and an evolving regulatory environment.”
Nikkei Asia also reports that Panasonic opened a new battery factory in Kansas in July, but has yet to say when it will reach full-scale production. Initially, it was expected to hit this mark by the end of the 2026 fiscal year. However, as a major supplier to Tesla, it has been affected by the fall in demand for EVs as well.
Slowing EV sales in the States have led to the cancellation of some endeavors entirely. T1 Energy was planning to build a battery plant in Georgia, but has since canned the project.
ADP - Private Cos Are Eliminating 13K Jobs Every Week
ADP data shows private companies cut an average of 13,500 jobs per week in the four weeks ending November 8, signaling faster layoffs.
The latest ADP Pulse contrasts with October, when private firms added 42,000 jobs.
U.S. companies eliminated more than 150,000 jobs in October, the highest October total since 2003.
Economists are relying more on ADP reports because federal labor data has been delayed by the recent 43 day government shutdown.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics will fold some missing October data into the November report and will not release an October unemployment rate.
HP to cut up to 6,000 jobs: CEO talks AI push
HP Inc. (HPQ) reported fiscal fourth quarter earnings results after the close on Tuesday, which topped Wall Street estimates on both the top and bottom lines. The company also announced it is pursuing new AI initiatives, which include reducing "gross global headcount by approximately 4,000-6,000 employees."
Warn Notices? Where for art thou?
Have not seen any published yet, but I know there have been layoffs.
Honeywell collapsing
BoA downgrade, split company.
Expect more layoffs in December.
The ship is sinking mates.
4k-6k global wfr
How many more people are they going to cut before they realize we are already operating at a bare minimum head count at some facilities?
ABN Amro to cut 5,200 jobs by 2028
ABN AMRO plans to cut 5,200 full-time jobs by 2028, it said on Tuesday, as the Dutch bank seeks to deliver on its cost-cutting promises and focus on its core businesses.
The reduction, equal to more than a fifth of the lender's workforce, will affect all business areas, including recently acquired Hauck Aufhäuser
Lampe and NIBC Bank, CEO Marguerite Bérard told Reuters.
Miami Value IT
Although it’s not fully cleaned up yet, it’s good to see a much-needed trim of the older friends and family brought in from the ‘fuel’ era. Hopefully the next rounds address the rest of the dead weight who managed to stay by simply playing politics. Keep up the great work, Mr. New CEO.
CIO RIF
If you can’t already tell. CIO is under increased scrutiny for headcount. They are looking to reduce costs/headcount by 10% across all CIO pillars for 2026 and achieve something called “reimagine work “ by 2027? I’m not sure what reimagine work is but doesn’t sound good. Especially if it’s following a goal to reduce costs.
New Orleans mayor-elect Helena Moreno warns of upcoming layoffs and cuts
New Orleans mayor-elect Helena Moreno warned there will be cuts and layoffs from city government as it battles a projected $222 million budget deficit in 2026.
Moreno posted a video discussing the deficit Sunday (Nov. 23). She vowed to prioritize essential services -- especially public safety -- before the Dec. 1 budget deadline.

Sour grapes
It seems that way too many folks, who were already laid off, can't deal with the fact that the company is finished with the layoffs.
Embarrassing display of envy.
I’m having a hard time dealing with all this
I’ve tried to accept that I could be cut any day and just live with it. I’ve been focusing on job searching, but that’s only made me feel more depressed. I can’t shake the spikes of anxiety, and I’m barely sleeping. This has dragged on for so long that it’s taken a real toll on my ability to cope. A couple of days ago I realized I can’t even switch off for an hour. Nothing holds my attention long enough for my brain to actually rest. How are you all dealing with this?

Layoffs
Thanksgiving layoffs
Got riffed back before 2010. Never looked back. Looks like management still taking the brunt of these hits

Massive outsourcing and layoffs in contact center planned
I’m a former employee and was having drinks with my friend (a senior manager who still works there). He mentioned there’s a big project under wraps to migrate most of the US based contact center to the Philippines next year. Thousands of employees are scheduled to be cut. Figured I’d share and see if anyone else wants to confirm or deny it and share details.
Bloomington Layoff
I first asked my supervisor here in Bloomington Minnesota and learned that on December 15th we shall be informed that our office is closing. Most of us are very happy to be laid off because we are all so done with this $chitt-hole place and are looking forward to the awesome termination package we get per our union contract. We get up to 2 years pay for those of us with over 31 years service. We're already celebrating! Sorry to the managers who only get a tiny fraction of what we union members get. Funny how we've all watched as all of our work, piece by piece, has become automated or off-shored - and we can only laugh about it.
Layoffs(no java)
I heard Layoffs coming in December, 15th. i heard this from a regional, who heard it from his contact in corporate HR. Hear say but can anyone confirm? and no BS java rant please.
Feeling a bit better made it thru My director told me I should be good next round of layoffs
So we have all been stressed but made it thru .I am feeling better since my director told me I should be ok the next round of rifs after the frontier merger.He said we all may have to pick up the extra slack but it will show we are value.
Q1 cuts
So we all know Fido moves slowly but based on water cooler chats, the mind has been made up
They are just delaying the announcement until Q1 2026.
There's no Q1 planning for our team apparently this year so not sure what that means??
Remote Layoffs once new RTO is implemented
Currently, quite a few fully remote workers are still with the company. Once they got rid of promotions/job growth for remote employees, it seemed like layoffs are imminent. What are the chances that remote employees are let go once RTO 2.0 starts in Feb?
Use your time wisely in the upcoming holiday season
Shankar’s AMA session today once again confirmed that additional workforce reductions are expected within TPG in 2026. He also acknowledged that leadership was not able to complete all planned organizational adjustments before December, as had previously been anticipated. This round of impact appears notably smaller on the Ansys side based on empirical data collected through internal high-level communications, which now aligns with the delayed timeline because the leadership is still trying to figure out these legacy Ansys portfolios, e.g., under MBU, FBU, etc.
Given this uncertainty, it might be wise to use the upcoming holiday season to prepare for potential changes—refresh your resume, explore job opportunities, and take steps to strengthen your position for next spring. Taking proactive measures now can make a meaningful difference later.

Happy thanksgiving happy layoffs
It’s the time of the year again
Now that we flushed the toilet on 13 000 lets move foward
Im thankful for this weeks check had a nice bonus in it this week. I am thankful i joined the union 26 years ago and did not sway. I am thankfull for a no layoff clause thank you cwa
I feel bad for those about to receive 2's on your performance review in February
Its more than likely not your fault, its a cr-ppy tactic of using the bell curve and even if you have 15 members on a team all of which are good performers, management is forced by leadership to pick a handful to give 2's to. Then you are placed on a PIP, and put under even more scrutiny and stress. In the past a PIP mean you if you showed improvement you would be taken off PIP and put back to a 3 next review, now its a death sentence and only a tactic to RIF you, its despicable. If you are not a favorite of management you will be given a 2. I know the job market su-ks but I would seriously start looking elsewhere, layoffs wont stop.
Still filling out applications like its my full time job
Its been less than a week since layoffs and im conservatively at 300 job applications submitted and I live with Linkedin like its my mistress. I'm willing to do whatever it takes to be able to continue to feed my family. Stay consistent and we will come out just fine. Use your network and dont be shy about letting others know you need a job if yours was taken last week. Wishing you all the best
Layoffs Clorox
Clorox is laying off; they are being careful to keep under 50 so they don't have to announce it to the public. It's done quietly a few here and there throughout the month (some this week, others next week, etc.). It's unfortunate that it's mostly the over 50 and long tenure that are being affective.
The movie The Company Men
Just saw this movie and it’s about Verizon.
The gist of it is a company laying off employees and everyone is on the chopping block, even the ones who don’t expect it. And the ones who get let go get a small severance and struggle to find work.
