#rumor

Are we safe this month or is that too much to ask for? Does T usually have layoffs in December?

Heard a rumour that the whole all employee call this week is going to be created by AI to show everyone what it can do…can’t wait to see if this is true

Any confirmation if managers got the okay to stell associates?

Heard over 300 more stores will be sold off to agents in the coming year. Polish your resume and get out while you can. They'll either pip you out with these high quotas or you'll be working for an agent.

Is it true that KKR is working on a deal to sell Omnissa? If so, who do you think the buyer will be? Does anybody know? Any hints?

I want to revisit a question someone once posed: Who is/was Frank Kosd??

The rumor is that he was one of Frankservs buddies and got installed as an EVP with next to nothing in experience.

His linkedin confirmed this with really no previous roles listed, which is odd for someone who is an EVP at a major company.

Now I don’t even see him in Workday, and I saw him there as recent as last week…. was he freshly let go as of this week?

I’m surprised he continued for this long after Bisig left… it was always bizzare that he didn’t have any profile pictures anywhere, considering his level with the company.

Can anyone confirm he’s a real person?

It looks like another round is starting at Hughes this week.

Anyone out there know how bad the layoffs will be on 12/18? Which locations?

Is it true?

There is a rumor every month to bump up stock by 10%, all from an Asia analyst. The latest is rumor with Apple, the previous is rumor with AMD. None is real, all fake news.

Is Intel asking analyst to send out rumors?

Is there any layoffs in Jan 2026? Many rumors going on in my team.

WARN notices for January (google it)
They’re getting through the holidays and then tossing the rest of that 29 from the slack channel leaked. 13 gone 16 to go.

Starting another thread about 2026 and the future of AES. There are so many rumors about what's next: sell company to Blackrock, split renewables and sell off Indiana or Ohio utilities to Duke, new senior leadership & board, etc. Any of these paths will ensure funding is cut and "they" force more work with less resources. Again. Let's hear what other rumors are out there.

It’s here, go time. No guesses or speculation. What’s our organization going to look like at the end of next week and who’s impacted?

I've heard both rumors and want to know if any of you have heard either month cited directly from a manager

Saw that RIO plans to sell the mine. Any idea who the buyers will be? Any layoffs?

I hate hearing more rumors about layoffs. Does anybody know where this came from? Any chance it's true or am I just getting stressed over nothing?

Any ideas?

Noticed some stores are not staying open as late this holiday season. Is that a sign they are on the chopping list? Seems to be quite a bit of overlap between that and the earlier closing stores, at least in the DMV.

Hey everyone, was just wondering what happened here. Before i was able to check this and get all the latest rumors. Lately, there are weeks with almost no topics and no new comments. Just heard a lot of big news this week and i am checking every day to see if someone will post something but nothing. Regarding the news, have confirm a lot of people were let go this week and there were talks i. nCR Voyix about having a 5 days office as mandatory from 2026, so that decision should have more people just quiting. Not sure at all where we are heading, both Voyix and Atleos.

That's it. That's the post.

Any leaders who can confirm a rumor? I heard that there is a requirement that at a certain level (team, department, or other) where a % of associates must be given a 1 rating. No other info and hoping it’s just a rumor. Looking for someone with more info.

Cause they will never ever have layoffs.

Oh BTW said no one ever.

Layoffs January 2026. Book mark this thread

I've heard ADS is planning cuts next month, is it true?

Does anybody know anything concrete about the rumored end-of-year layoffs?

Heard some rumors that another round of "restructuring" is happening before the end of the year for the KC teams

Apparently our wonderfully absent tech leader feels that "AI will make our delivery teams obsolete"

We keep hearing that more cuts are coming, and the rumor mill is nonstop at this point. If anyone has anything even remotely reliable to share, please do. It’d help a lot of us figure out what to expect instead of stressing over every random whisper.

Whatever you want to call it is not over.

For certain, all Retail Senior Managers are actively being stack-ranked and your fate will be determined in the near future. So for you lazy store managers, you've already made your bed, and they know.

Rumor is that some of the folks in the stores that are being converted will call in sick on Black Friday. Anyone one hear about this?

I’m hearing December 1st, 8th, 15th, layoffs have already started, re-org is coming, 1NA is coming, sending jobs to Russia, sending jobs to Mexico, 3000 layoffs, he-l somebody even said 20%+ which would mean 60k+ employees and would be the biggest layoff in American history for a single company.

Does anybody have any solid information on real December layoffs or restructuring and what groups are impacted. Frontline? Managers? Division, HQ? Etc.

Is Shankar out? Will there be a reorg in VGS?

I’d heard he left. Looks like he got a job with a wallet - maybe he will give Elliot a run for their money and just buy us.

So on a local level in field can only go by what we see and know.What we saw was low level low pay first line bosses getting riffed .While not very useful they might actually have some use!Yet we saw no upper management like 2nd or 3rd liners who actually do nothing but make misery along with Tons of money!!So what we see is this is all a joke .Dan just needed a bit more cash flow from the bottom of the pile.This just means our next contract is gonna be really fun with Dan since he really loves to Rob the lower paid working groups .While moving in all his over paid paypal buddies!!!

I heard this rumor many months ago, and it recently came up again.. SOVA is going to become lead for VBG wireline sales in 2026. Has anyone else heard anything similar?

I heard that there's going to be a big layoff coming either just before Thanksgiving break or December break. Specifically in HiL labs, as there was not much output last year.

H1B next target?
