VBG here and I was told next big notification for most groups will be 3rd week in November with December 19th off payroll and 2 weeks per year with a cap.
RIF will hit non directional centers worse than three main campuses as the march to have those be the big three plays out. If they haven’t named your center explicitly as directional your time has come.
Bumping this to the top for info. OP is @z5+1k7jqjqqb.
Since the onset of COVID-19, Dell has undergone significant changes that have made it an increasingly difficult place to work. Leadership appears indifferent to the strain and exhaustion employees are experiencing. The ongoing rounds of redundancies have created a sense of instability and mental fatigue, while the workload remains relentless. Employees receive little recognition or appreciation for their hard work or the personal sacrifices they continue to make.
The implementation of upcoming projects next year is expected to result in further reductions to the workforce, exacerbating an already challenging environment. This is no longer the company I once joined with pride; it has become an organization that seems to have lost its regard for the well-being of its employees
Are other sectors just as bad ?!
Curious about the age of everyone who was recently let go.
After announcing major layoffs and the transfer of operations from Calgary to Edmonton, John Whelan has been completely absent. No follow-up email, no public address, and not even a presence in supervisor forums to discuss the impacts of the decision. Employees are left in uncertainty, while leadership has gone silent. It’s disappointing to see the person responsible for these major organizational changes disappear from view. Maybe he is busy setting up that "advocacy office" in Calgary....
Please someone share what kind of severance is being offered. This time, a$$hole leadership is not even showing any humanity, just to make sure their a$$ is not targeted. What a bunch of shameless folks! If you love your friend and family, never refer them here.
Accenture is the definition of burnout. Same outdated systems, same empty promises, no real path forward. The layoffs are just the cherry on top of a very stale, very bland cake.
Will there be more this coming week?
Who else thinks it’s a bad idea? We are releasing skilled knowledgeable people, reducing possibilities to rotate to other areas, cannot serve all markets. Is this just an excuse to drive people to quit?
Even if you’re one of the best, even if you know this place inside out, you’re not safe. These layoffs aren’t about performance. It’s just about saving money, and that means cutting the higher earners, even if they’re the ones keeping things running. I’m not trying to freak anyone out, I just don’t want people blindsided thinking hard work and experience still count. They don’t anymore.
New DOL Project Firewall is "rebuilding our workforce and ensuring American Jobs go to AMERICANS FIRST!" Nice to know this while our jobs are being sent overseas.
Full disclosure, I am one of those people who was cornered by the cool-aid drinking Supervisors of Imperial Oil, and had to leave the company to keep my sanity and self esteem.
I am curious to know, with all the worker bee jobs moving to Houston and BTC, what will the Supervisors do in Canada? Shouldn’t their jobs also move out of the country??
It feels like working in limbo. Everyone’s just waiting for the next round of cuts, going through the motions. It was never fun here, but it used to be friendly. Now nobody talks, everyone’s just waiting for the other shoe to drop. It’s so draining that getting laid off almost sounds like a relief.

I was so proud to say I worked at Cisco. Now I just change the subject when people ask where I work. The place has turned into such a train wreck I can’t even defend it anymore.
That's my biggest issue right now. I can't afford to lose my job because I desperately need my health insurance. Do we get anything as part of the severance package?
Every time I think we've hit rock bottom, they find a new way to stress us out. The constant changes, PIPS, the fake pep talks, the micromanaging, layoffs, AI... It’s draining everyone. Do they want to have a completely demotivated workforce that only does the bare minimum? Is that the goal here?
I'm asking specifically about the US.
2026 Q1 layoff list is being prepared.
This is real talk!!!!
Ilumina keeps beating its head over with useless PLM and MRP tool upgrades that neither add value to the company or increase the speed to get products to market. The only group to benefit from these activities is the workforce in India that has substantially grown ever since Jacob has taken over. Consequence will be our competitors taking over our market share and making us irrelevant, an afterthought. These useless initiatives are being spearheaded by our clueless leadership and middle management that neither have the best interest of the shareholders or employees, only their determination to maximize their own paychecks. Management teams like those that fester at Illumian are the ticks that ruin a company's value and culture. If there was a way to replace Middle management with AI, sign Illumina as #1 customer.
Lot of commercial work has just vanished in aero. I am looking for charge numbers without a lot of opportunity. Bracing for the worst. Cut all of my expenses and cancelled a vacation over holidays to build emergency fund.
Anyone else feel the same?
6 years in S&T/legacy IT. What a mess, we are sc--wed. Mass Offshoring coming soon, especially with the new “role tagging exercise” that occurred a couple weeks ago, a “right sizing” will happen, leaving much more leaner US based teams.
New RTO policy for anyone within 90 mins of NYC and SF offices.. anyone hear anything about forcing employees elsewhere back? Or anything about laying off international workers?
Same stories as the Trane posting. Leaders want you to keep quiet.
Any rumours on the upcoming layoffs in Cambridge?
Had heard some chatter for US Thanksgiving and AutoFair time line.
Any management got laid off or just regular folks?
I just hope no one still here is taking this place seriously anymore and that everyone’s looking hard for other options.
The city of Rocky Mount has initiated layoffs for about 100 city employees, a little more than 10% of its full-time workforce. The city said it is a necessary step to address its financial crisis.

Great. That’s really going to do wonders for morale.
We don’t need extra stress on top of looming layoffs. Some might find it amusing that people are reading too much into that org chart, but they should also realize many are genuinely terrified about their jobs. For some, losing it would have serious, life-changing consequences. I understand people panicking. What I don’t understand is how those paid to run this place can’t handle something as critical as layoffs more competently.
What happens if I’m on PTO the day they do layoffs? Will they call me on my personal phone, or wait until I’m back in office the next week?
Are layoffs going to continue? So many folks were let go, and yet no official communication whatsoever.
In a third round of layoffs, Newmont Corp. plans to let go 65 employees at its headquarters in Denver, bringing to 107 the number of recently announced staff reductions.
Newmont, the world’s largest mining company, notified state and Denver officials Wednesday that the layoffs are expected to occur around Dec. 14. The announcement follows one in August that 19 employees would be laid off and one Oct. 1 that 23 positions, primarily in its headquarters, would be terminated on or around Nov. 30.

Anyone have any ideas what departments will be hit?
COP will soon layoff significant numbers of hardworking and skilled personnel with significant institutional capacity and knowledge in its efforts to become as per McKinsey Focused Future Proof….
What does this new COP really look like and at what cost?
Or are the management consultants correct in that COP is rudderless and need of institutional retooling.
Last one for this year - another 5 to 7k to Let go, Majorly in US, Silent announcement will follow in the next few Business Days = Thanks Giving Reward for the Employees (Rember next 2 to 3 years there will be a Huge Reorg is going to happen, that will be beyond what we have seen this year, this is just tip off the Ice berg)
The next position to go will be people leads.
If you've tried automating or using AI for this company you will know just how painful it is to try and push innovation. Multiple tiers of leadership, so many boundaries to break down, etc. Etc.
I find it funny that the company is choosing to use AI and technology advances as the message for headcount reduction. In my experience those outsourcing moves just adds to the body count while doing nothing to automate. There is no future in technology for this company because it continues to distance itself from the people who can offer those options. I have been pushing a solution that would reduce two entire departments, instead or pursing they just keep adding bodies to the BSC's.
XOM will be left in the dust by its competitors as they choose to advance technology while XOM looks to outsource and reduce its expertise.
Watch and see.
