Bryan has the energy of a used car salesman. He seems very untrustworthy and incompetent. They just talk a lot without saying anything substantive. What is happening with the company? What is HISs future? Why do they even do quarterly calls to tell us we are doing well and then pull some bs like this. Bryan is taking home a gigantic paycheck compared to the size of our company. The greed of shareholders is really insane. Every company lays off thousands of employees like it’s nothing just because the profits were 1 or 2 percentage lower.

Seems like many of my go to resources adjacent to my account team has been retiring this week. What's going on?

Per Floods call yesterday the smb new branded group was 3k below forecast. I still am unsure of what’s going to happen with us as a segment of the group as a lot is transition over to i2B but i will say it’s brutal out here.

Have a great weekend everyone,

100% be cautious of this.. You’ll read a lot of people say something like “oh I got a job during those 60 days and kept the severance”. I did this. Lost my severance. Then got laid off two months later at my new job. 8 months later im back here. In a role 3 levels lower than when I left.

Remember those 60 days you’re still employed. If you accept another role. You aren’t laid off. You’ve now quit.

It’s a notice of potential employment loss due to layoff. If you accept another role during that time you quit your job and took a new job. These companies have automated systems that notify each other. Especially with workday.

Very much do start your job hunt immediately. It’s a long drawn out process with multiple rounds of interviews.

Just don’t accept the role until day 61.

I beg of you - listen to my advice.

Any news on Buckeye Health Plan?
Vsp people or leaders who know something?

Howard Stern's show has undergone significant staff reductions in two separate layoff waves. At least 50 employees, comprising two-thirds of the total staff, have been terminated. These cuts occurred in February and again in July, impacting both behind-the-scenes and on-air personnel. The layoffs follow Stern's contract renewal with SiriusXM, despite his earlier comments suggesting job security for his team. Some affected employees were reportedly offered severance packages with non-disclosure agreements.

The company is implementing another round of layoffs. These job cuts coincide with significant changes in its executive leadership.

I have heard september but anyone has any new info? I also heard it can be labour day weekend like last year

Layoffs confirmed, just after earnings

I work for the most incompetent and delusional human being I’ve ever met. That he has reach a high level is truly astonishing.

Anyone hear anything about Dell Canada layoffs?
Heard rumours for Friday, we’ve had like no layoffs so far, at least in sales.

How many workers jobs had to die for this all time high stock price? The motive behind every decision the MC makes is this number in order to pad the stock options they are given.

Capone pronounced like the famous chicago gangster... this is more appropriate that pronouncing as cap one. Corrupt, corrupt, corrupt. Sad, sad, sad. I have seen so many new posts about the new RIFs this week, and just as many, if not more celebration postings on LinkedIn about new job acceptances, promotions, and brand new job postings. This company is The Worst.

Closure End Dates for NYC are 9/10, 9/12, and 9/30 for layoffs.

I did not take VSP, but after what I have witnessed in the past week I truly wish I had.

Some people being told they cannot tell people they took VSP when some are. Teams finding out their People Leader is leaving via the rumor mill before they are told by them because "We want to be able to tell them where they are going to land", two weeks later they have no idea who they will report to.

High level VP's in charge of hundreds to thousands of people not seeming to have a clue what the new org structures will be or are doing a really good job of playing d-mb.

Get your s--- together, lock yourself in a room until you have a damn plan for those that will be left.

So many about to be blindsided by ISP next week from Mon-Wed that truly think they are safe because they did not take VSP.

Best of luck to all of you who chose to leave and to those that did not chose to leave but are on secret lists out there. You will be OK, and better off after what our leaders have shown us this past couple of weeks!

I just went on Facebook and typed in Centene in the search bar and quite a few people’s posts came up showing they were recently laid off. This was in the last week or two. So it looks as though things are happening behind the scenes and they are not going by a specific date like we all think for next week.

when you or someone you knew, earned the att life insurance benefit and someone claims it when you are finally laid off (dead) there is a posting in the obituaries that used to occur every month. either they have exhausted the life insurance fund or they have laid off the person who posted the monthly updates. nobody has died since last may according to the site. wtf.

Does anyone know which departments have already been impacted or might be impacted? I've been hearing a lot of rumors, and it doesn't sound good. Has anyone heard anything?

The Plainfield Public Library's Board of Trustees has explained significant reductions in operating hours and potential staff layoffs. These measures are a direct result of a 17% municipal budget cut, which effectively translates to a 34% reduction for the remainder of the fiscal year. The library's operational funding is not eligible for grants, necessitating municipal support. The board is actively working to preserve services despite the financial constraints. The city council is currently deliberating its final budget.

Lisata Therapeutics has significantly reduced its workforce by approximately 72% following the termination of a merger agreement with Kuva Labs. This drastic measure aims to lower operating expenses and conserve cash for the company's strategic future. The biotech is also pursuing legal action against Kuva Labs, alleging a breach of their merger contract. Lisata is seeking damages and a previously agreed-upon termination fee. Some laid-off employees may be rehired as consultants.

Anyone know what grade levels are targeted for the next round? I’m new in my career and don’t know if I should be worried

I'll start:

I'll paraphrase because I can't remember the exact sentence but it was a director that said something along the lines that he will "get more involved" again after being a total no show for the least 5 years and later when the culling started fu---d over hundreds of people.

Hindsight is 20/20 but I really wish I'd asked him on that call what the fu-k he actually ment.

Do we know what the expected timeline is for the layoffs? I wanted to clarify if they are projected to happen just during August or if they will continue through the rest of the year.

The solar panel manufacturer Heliene has initiated layoffs at its Mt. Iron facility. Employees were informed of the immediate and permanent job reductions on Wednesday. Despite the immediate nature of the layoffs, the company will continue to pay affected staff until October 4th. The stated reason for these workforce reductions is unforeseen business circumstances. The exact number of employees impacted by this decision has not been disclosed.

Has anyone else had issues filing for unemployment, specifically in Texas? I have filed two claims now (garden leave ended July 6) and just got a call from the TWC telling me that TMO has not responded to their requests for information, including "reason for separation." What kind of BS is that?

I was able to sort it out by providing information and documentation that I have, but that's not how it's supposed to work.

This company is falling apart at the seams. They laid off thousands and don't have the staff to support the unemployment funds that are legally mine?

found out going to get cut this Friday.

Revol Greens is planning to lay off approximately 89 workers at its Minnesota greenhouse facility. This action is contingent on the company not being sold or securing additional funding by October. The company's first facility, located near Owatonna, faces permanent closure if these conditions are not met. Revol Greens has experienced challenges in the lettuce growing industry, including a recent drop in consumer demand. The company previously closed a farm in California last year.

Walmart intends to reduce San Bruno staffing mid to late August 2026. August has traditionally been a favorite month for Walmart to lay off associates.

No big deal, though. San Bruno is the leftover bastion from the failed merger, and this appears to be just more cleanup and wind down. There is some speculation, however, that other locations might be hit, as well. We’ll see as more info leaks.

Just curious

Anyone have any tips on upcoming layoffs or planned layoffs associated with the September 14 WPE tracking? There is usually a big one in March, we might have another one sooner. WF just had a big one earlier this week

Tulsa's KJRH TV station has significantly reduced its workforce as part of a strategic pivot by its parent company.
