#layoffs

Can anyone confirm if the goal is to reduce the work force to around 30k employees? That would mean a major layoff compared to the current staff size. I came across a comment about this and wanted to see if anyone senior here can confirm this information

I'm out. Oracle Health. So much for loyalty.

2 weeks notification, separation date is 9/22
Last working day is today; official exit in the books on 9/22
COBRA for 4 weeks from 9/22
Severance dependent upon service, appears to be 2 weeks per year.

Have heard multiple reports within ISG at least of folks having 1x1 meetings put on their calendar last minute for today. Hope it’s not too large of a group this time around. 2H budgets must be tight

One of my teammates has a skip-level meeting for later today. I thought people were being notified by their direct managers, is this wrong? Could his meeting be something else?

Specially OHAI , OCI and other analytics teams ?

Has it started? Any 1:1s yet? Please share.

Been seeing for days on here, fishbowl, and reddit that layoffs are anticipated for today (9/2). Is it happening? Is it big? What time will we know if we’re in the clear?…… at least for this round :-)

big news coming out on 10/31/25 for anyone associated w Dell Technologies

So what was the fall out on the Atleos side of things?

A social event scheduled for 3rd Sept over in the London Walbrook office has just been cancelled. Could be ominous.

Until when? Just so we can stay extra stressed on a daily basis forever?

Which departments are affected? Good luck to all of us.

However the dice might fall for me. The stress is unbearable.

The job reductions come despite strong financial results for both companies. Cisco reported $14.7 billion in revenue for the fourth quarter, up 8% from a year earlier, and $56.7 billion for the full year, while Oracle posted more than $12 billion in profit in its last fiscal year, further adds the report.

Hi y’all
I hope you had a good weekend. As we look to start this week in our new reality, I feel so energized and proud to see our progress that we made in the last 6 months. We’ve managed to cut away less useful roles, brought in people that we love into those vacancies despite their lack of competencies. We expect these people to exercise growth mindset to continue our progress. We managed to find savings through these layoffs which will definitely add to my bonus next year. I am just glowing after finding those valuable $. As you know, money is my god! 😉

Lastly, for folks that are still having difficulty adjusting to this new reality, remember that I am with you in this journey. Please drop by my secret garden to enjoy the tranquility and the peace it provides me every day. I know I’ve benefitted greatly from those moments of silence. Off to my tailor as I get ready for the GP meeting to charge up those that are thinking of voting me out.

Have a great week!

Are you on “the list”?

At least it's not just us.

Layoffs? Realignment? Other info of relevance?

Imagine being told your job as a director is being eliminated before the holiday weekend.

Are layoffs in ACS in the roadmap? Asking before they were heavily before the hiring freeze

“Benioff called the first eight months of 2025, during which an estimated 10,000 jobs have been lost to AI, “eight of the most exciting months of my career.”

When it comes to layoffs there is no finish line. Just Do It? Apparently that only applies to cutting headcount. Always chasing the shiny objects while the basics get benched. Somehow MD still has a job, and HR is running around like it’s a team-building offsite. Help us.

Florida Coca-Cola reducing workforce in September 2025 and not due to financial instability. Adding to the already high unemployment rates in Tampa Bay. Heartless criminals. Sickening!

I don’t want this significant event to go unnoticed. Many of those laid off were lured to FSP with a bunch of lies of long term work. Didn’t matter that the client wanted to keep them on. If you are US based, with older and more experienced being a bonus, you are doomed.

When will we know about benefit changes and when will layoffs begin? Some of us will base our futures on this information!!

Virginia and New Jersey have been hit especially hard, a Stateline analysis shows.

I can’t keep up with all these rumors anymore. If it’s true, which department’s turn is it this time?

With Tuesday being the big day? Just want to make sure I’m understanding this right.

When is it happening for GT EMEA?

After getting the RIF in Nov 2018 (65 age, 44 yrs service, only one in my position) I have realized there is no rhyme or reason.
My best opinions are;
1) It’s not business, it’s personal
2) The ELT always look out for themselves
3) What you know means nothing. Who you know means more.
4) It can and will happen to anyone at anytime.
5) Be loyal to your family, never a job. The 60’s and 70’s are gone and not coming back.
6) Trust and respect are a 1 way street and not from leadership, so don't give to them unless the earn it.

I've heard that the layoff process canbe brutal. Can anyone shed some light on what ctyally happens on layoff day? (Looking for answers, not drama from some troll.) How long do you have to sign the separation papers? Is it before you leave the room or do you have some time before you HAVE to sign?

Retiree here who lost all subsidies. Premiums on individual marketplace plans set to spike. Mercer says employer based premiums set to rise 10% for 2026. Will this huge spike lead to more job losses at the company or will benefits be reduced even more ? Got to believe it will lead to more layoffs for those over age 50 and a combination of benefit cuts and price hikes this Fall. Many companies are laying off already because of this and higher interest rates. GLP-1 dr-gs are killing the system leading to bat schit crazy panic setting in with CFOs. 50% of all costs go to overhead w/insurance companies who pay C-Suite Execs millions. Something needs to be done.

It’s always pi---d me off looking at those people that immediately have 30,000 steps at midnight. Ain’t no way you’ve covered 30,000 steps. Also those that have 30,000 steps everyday of the challenge

Those are the people with no integrity and ought to be the ones let go.

Penny’s internet watchers putting their lists together trying to figure out who we are since we don’t believe in their reimagining. Get on the app and take note there.

Expect another month of silence on both sides of the fence whilst the AVPs circle around the cauldron cooking up the next hot mess just in time for Halloween.

If you can get an exit do it now or keep logging evidence of misdemeanours and ‘managerial’ behavior to strengthen your position if you get the tap on the shoulder.

The toxic dial is being turned up daily.

Tesla has unexpectedly terminated a contractor’s contract at Gigafactory Texas, resulting in the layoff of 82 workers who were supporting the automaker’s production at the giant factory in Austin.
