Citigroup Plans March Layoffs for Managing Directors

https://www.peoplematters.in/news/strategic-hr/citigroup-to-cut-managing-directors-and-senior-staff-in-march-after-january-layoffs-48158

Citigroup is preparing a new round of job cuts in March. These layoffs will primarily affect managing directors and other senior employees. This follows approximately 1,000 roles eliminated in January. CEO Jane Fraser is leading a multi-year restructuring effort. The bank expects workforce reductions to continue into 2026.

A new report details global tech industry layoffs in 2025. RationalFX compiled data from various verified sources. Worldwide, 244,851 tech jobs were eliminated that year. Approximately 69,840 roles were cut due to AI and restructuring. Amazon, TCS, and Accenture recorded the largest AI-related job losses.

I’m curious if anyone else has thoughts or concerns about the recent update regarding Year End conversations.

Leadership just communicated that YE discussions are being pushed back to the first week of March.

I know delays like this can happen for a variety of reasons, but the timing and the shift to a single conversation feel unusual.

Is anyone else reading into this? Do you think this signals anything bigger, like restructuring or broader cost-control measures, or is this simply a logistical change?

Would love to hear your perspective and whether other teams are experiencing the same thing.

Kristi Moody, the legal brain who said it was OK to spin off the REIT, and that we'd win the lawsuit that we actually lost and put us into bankruptcy.... Has left the building.

A casualty of restructuring the department.

Adios Kristi. Best of luck in your new endeavors.

The U.S. unemployment rate has risen to 4.6% since early 2025. Total layoffs reached one million in 2025, the highest since 2020. Artificial intelligence and company restructuring are major causes for these job cuts. PeopleFinders and Stacker identified 12 large metro areas with significant unemployment rate increases. Cleveland, Ohio, saw the highest increase, rising 0.8% between July 2024 and July 2025.

Blue Cross of Idaho Cuts Staff Amid Restructuring

• Blue Cross of Idaho confirmed recent staff reductions. Less than 90 employees were affected by these layoffs. The company cited organizational changes for efficiency and cost reduction. This follows 135 layoffs from a lost contract in April 2025. Blue Cross of Idaho is also considering moving its headquarters.

Citi’s stated goal of reducing headcount from roughly 240,000 in 2022 to about 180,000 by 2026 cannot be reconciled with the headline figure of ~20,000 layoffs. Even allowing for normal attrition and divestitures, the numbers imply that a far larger reduction is occurring off-headline—through hiring freezes, role eliminations via restructuring, automation, and business exits—suggesting the “20,000” figure significantly understates the true scale of workforce contraction.

1. Part of messaging to analysts that OpenText is continuing on its promised transformation as announced when MB was fired. This says, we mean business, we are pulling out people in, we have control over their output. When business declines, pretending to change the dynamic of a component of that failure is part of telling analysts your recovery story.
2. Attrition: Attrition is expected and welcome. There is a stat on this as part of the planing. Any employee contributing at high value or in a niche way is absolutely not on the handpicked RTO list.
3. The list is VERY deliberate. You will note that today's employer communication underscored sales teams are exempt. Sure they gave reasons, but the reality is, OT is in the business of SELLING not INVENTING. OT can and will easily replace any employee who Isn't selling and that includes sellers.
4. This is a preamble to the entrance of the new CEO. More control, more expectation, more oversight is the message.
5. Stay tuned. Several more big announcements coming including restructuring and leadership exits through the fiscal year.
6. Big carve out Q127
7. Big change coming for one of the "core" business units.
8. 1-6 are all part of the process of reducing headcount through voluntary exits (non executive) and golden parachutes for senior leaders.
9. Followed by a HUGE WFR.

This was online this morning. It says layoffs to continue through March.

T-Mobile is undergoing significant layoffs across multiple departments, with recent cuts confirmed as of January 2026. Employees in sales, business units, call centers, and engineering have been affected, particularly supervisory staff—reports indicate 75% of supervisory roles are being eliminated. The Dedicated Experts team experienced a wave of layoffs from Monday to Friday, with leadership and hourly employees impacted.

These changes are part of a broader digital transformation strategy driven by new CEO Srini Gopalan. T-Mobile is aggressively pushing its T-Life app, which now has over 90 million downloads, and integrating AI-powered customer service via a partnership with OpenAI. As a result, roles tied to in-person or phone-based support are being reduced.

T-Mobile has not disclosed the exact number of layoffs but confirmed "some changes" while continuing to hire. The company is also restructuring retail operations, with rumors of new "Consumer Account Executives" in stores for small businesses and increased pressure on staff to use T-Life for upgrades and sales.

Layoffs are expected to continue through the end of Q1 2026, with no official hiring freeze confirmed despite earlier rumors. Employees in Washington state, including Bellevue, Bothell, and Snoqualmie, were impacted in a prior round affecting 121 workers starting October 2025.

Tim: we are broke, you had fun, but there is no money. We will restructure and apply industry best practices of paying you nothing. Meanwhile let’s all go to LA we will party!

Welcome to corporate America. They call it ‘restructuring’ when profits are protected and people are discarded.

Heard that some restructure happening in some teams, are there layoffs expected?

There seems to be an exodus of iGaming executives leaving in the last several months. Is this part of the business restructuring or is Dylan at Aristocrat Interactive poaching execs from his old team?

Beginning May 3, the company will implement one of the largest structural changes in its history, driven by the adoption of Oracle software and a shift toward a more siloed operating model.

Citi should be the last company to discuss or bring awareness to mental illness. For the past 3 years employees have been on the edge seeing fellow coworkers especially within the United States get impacted and their jobs being outsourced overseas. It is a never ending cycle that this company is causing. When will the “restructuring “ end? They are blaming Ai which might be a small percentage but the jobs are being shipped to other countries. Look at their career page. They don’t know what they are doing and that’s why there is no stability. As a matter fact Jane will never be Jamie Dimon if that’s what she is trying to pull.

Verizon to Eliminate Up to 15,000 Roles by 2026

https://www.thehrdigest.com/verizon-layoffs-to-hit-15000-roles-in-2026-as-automation-takes-over/

Verizon plans significant job reductions in 2026 as part of a major restructuring. Between 13,000 and 15,000 roles could be affected. New CEO Dan Schulman aims for greater efficiency and cost savings. The company expects $3 billion to $4 billion in annual savings from these changes. Automation and a competitive market are driving these decisions.

Watching the recent T-Mobile layoffs has been brutal. So many genuinely talented, hardworking people let go—people who did everything right and still got swept up in a decision that feels cold and mechanical.

What makes it harder is that many of us saw this coming. Large-scale layoffs have a long history in corporate playbooks, and when the signals start flashing, the outcome is rarely a surprise—just deeply disappointing.

The most difficult part to reconcile is who stays. It’s hard to watch strong contributors lose their roles while certain directors with long-standing HR complaints remain untouched. Complaints that have been raised, documented, and somehow consistently minimized or buried. Leadership that relies on yelling, belittling, and intimidation shouldn’t be protected—yet here we are.

It says a lot about an organization when toxic behavior survives restructuring while good people don’t.

My heart goes out to those impacted, and to the teams left behind under leadership that hasn’t earned their trust. You deserved better.

On Wednesday, Jan. 14, Noridian Healthcare Solutions announced a reduction in force that affected about 7% of Noridian's employees.

That's according to Cailin Shovkoplyas, communications manager for Noridian, who added that the change is connected to an organizational restructuring that "aligns staffing with current federal funding levels" and positions the company for long-term competitiveness.

CarMax is moving forward with large-scale layoffs that will hit its corporate workforce, particularly in the Richmond region. The job cuts represent a notable downsizing of the company’s corporate operations. Workers based in CarMax’s corporate offices near Richmond are bearing the brunt of these reductions as the company restructures and looks to control costs.

Hi everyone,
I'm wondering if anyone has heard about potential cost-cutting measures or layoffs affecting contractors at Charles Schwab? With the current economic climate and many companies restructuring, I'm curious if there are any known plans to reduce contractor workforce or cut contractor-related costs. Has anyone heard anything from their teams or managers about this?

GoDaddy is undergoing significant layoffs that cut across multiple functions — sales, engineering, and leadership. This isn’t just a small adjustment; it’s part of a larger restructuring that reflects the company’s current instability and shifting priorities.

Employees across different levels are being impacted, from quota‑carrying sales reps to technical engineers and even senior leaders. The breadth of these cuts suggests that GoDaddy is not simply trimming excess headcount, but rather redefining its operating model in ways that will reshape the culture and future direction of the company.

For those inside, the environment feels uncertain. Compensation plans have been changing, transparency has been questioned, and now entire teams are being reduced or reorganized. These layoffs are hitting both revenue‑generating roles and product‑building functions, which raises concerns about how GoDaddy plans to sustain growth and innovation moving forward.

Externally, GoDaddy continues to present itself as a global brand with strong market presence, but internally, the reality is different: morale is low, trust is eroding, and employees are left wondering what comes next. The fact that leadership roles are also being eliminated underscores that this is not just about performance management, but about a deeper strategic reset.

If you’re considering opportunities at GoDaddy, be aware of the current climate. The company is in transition, and while it may still offer brand recognition and scale, the risk of instability is high. For current employees, the message is clear: prepare for change, advocate for transparency, and recognize that the company’s priorities are shifting rapidly.

Project Managers rebadging. 90% and 10% stay as GW (for now).
Consolidation under one VP + mass rebadging + downgraded benefits usually means cost restructuring and positioning the company for a transaction (sale/spin/outsourcing). Whether the “sell off” is confirmed or not, the pattern is consistent with that kind of move.

Developers.

They are once again letting go of tenured employees in good standing without providing any explanation, instead of allowing them to relocate within the organization. This is not in line with the HealthStream culture or vision!

Leadership indicates a need to reset and focus more on areas that matter. Growth has not been happening as fast as desired.

In the last year, AI-related layoffs have started to feel routine, showing up nearly every week in corporate announcements. Businesses in multiple sectors are increasingly citing “efficiency improvements” from artificial intelligence as the reason for workforce reductions. While companies frame these moves as innovation-driven, many workers see AI being used as a cover for cost-cutting and restructuring.

Can anyone say: More Layoffs/restructuring coming?

Hearing rumors of something big coming 2Q26 - refining specifically, possibly selling refiner(y)ies or a big restructure. Anybody hear anything big?

This Would Make Sense. After Q1 2026 earnings announcement. I think the global corporate role renaming from fall 2025 will Result In OffShoring and/or duplicate role cuts. Very Specific S&T roles were grouped into More General Roles. Campus hires happening in much higher headcounts at ICC than Purchase (“global HQ”). The Labor is Cheaper overseas, and the stock is almost Flat Over the last 5 years.

Putting this up for visibility. Found at @ah+1ken6hm4m.
