#rumor

there's been a lot more rumblings about layoffs this month along with more reorgs. the chatter this week has been pretty heavy especially with aop planning going on. anyone else been hearing things?

Any possible impact on the existing contracts? Heard from a trusted internal source that WPP has been awarded the AOR. How true is that? Seems more job cuts are on the way

It’s shameful that layoffs are funding AI and surely will continue before ELT jumps the sinking ship...What groups / roles are suspected to be up next?

I heard there are last dates scheduled for H1b visa holders across US for many positions. Even with valid visa not expiring for 2 more years. How true is this. My friend got impacted but I want to see if someone else can shed more light.

Any layoffs next week ? When will the org changes be finished

Does anyone know if Leo Brito has left? If anyone could confirm or deny this it would be great. Thanks in advance.

They are behind the schedule.

CUMMINS SHARE PRICE WENT UP TO OVER $700 AND TODAY IT THE SHARE PRICE IS JUST OVER $500 IS THERE SOMETHING THERE NOT TELLING US

Is anything coming?

Or will it continue throughout the week?

What has this leading edge CEO done for Intel, I don’t see any documented progress other than this rumor, that dinner, another rumor, some focused laser, sushi, rice and everything nice. This dude is another fake a-s poser it appears, a one trick Asian. They had been zero factual outcome that shows any measure of advancement out of the ditch.

Heard the company is letting everyone who put in for the offer are being accepted? True or false?

Okay, we know more layoffs are going to happen for sure, but do we have any idea when? This month? This year? Later?

Here we go again!

Does anyone have any insight of what is to become of freelancers. Last year majority were wrapped by year's end. Wondering if it will be the same this year?

Rumor mill is churning today. We know they’re already tracking how long you sit on an IP in office. I’m hearing murmurs that requirements are coming soon. I just can’t decide if it’ll be at the start of the year or if it’ll be the next few months so they can use it to sh-t us out of bonuses/raises.

Any update

Anyone hearing of additional layoffs coming this month? Wondering if it’s corporate again or divisional?

There has been a rumour about layoff for around 4000 employees by next year's start. I overheard it from discussions in the office. Looks like some employees might be in loop or getting their info from somewhere

Could it be true or a rumour?

Rumor has it HCSC is going to push the Health Spring brand nationally and ditch the blue association.

Thinking people trust HCSC over the cross and shield.

So the gossip is high but what do people here feel likely.

Neo Next Plus is 100% for ETAP but do they want more.

Shell want FPSO Glen Lyon.

So who wants Clair area?

You know what to do. Over and out.

What’s happening with this BU they all seem to be busy. Does anyone have real insight the rumours of a sell off keep circling. Their performance tool is world class loadrunner. ALM is used by all TOP 500

Any new insight on where potential new sites might be located? Have heard rumors of Warwick, RI as a new space for Smithfield, any others?

Following layoffs in Asia this week, are we going to be hit next week?

All we're doing is guessing and people are getting more and more stressed. True leadership would tell employees what's going on if nothing else to stop rumors from escalating and creating panic. Sadly, who we have in top management are as far away from true leadership as they can be.

Lists are being created. Don’t know how widespread but GT associates are on it! Probably a result of last weeks meetings in India
No scheduled meetings yet to justify our existence..
Is the rumor still Christmas?

The WBD folks don't seem to use their page as frequently as we do. When do we initiate them in our ways?

I see someone has already spread the Caribbean employee gag on the most recent post

Well, turns out we in DXC did know what we were doing after all.

We just landed a massive customer contract. The kind of deal that makes the “they’ll never sign” crowd in DXC suddenly very quiet.

Months of work.
Serious $$$$$$$$$$
10 year commitment.
A big BIG customer.

To everyone in DXC who doubted us: thanks for the motivation.
To the competition: we’d say “better luck next time” but judging by how this one went, you may need more than luck.

Contract signed. The team is celebrating. Champagne is flowing. Competitors are panicking. Shareholders are calling.

And then…

None of it happened. Congratulations to everyone who made it this far before realizing the entire post was complete bullsh-t.

It is just another perfectly normal day in DXC.
No contract. No customer. No work.

I heard someone talking at McDonald's that Intel don't have enough people to make chips anymore. Only way to lead is to buy the competitors to make chips for it to lead.

I was told yesterday thathI could be laid off in March. I'm a coordinator btw.BTW. So this is no rumor mill. It's happening again....

Any idea if we will have October RIF 2nd Tuesday of the Month?

That really bothers me: I asked if our team was impacted by the upcoming October rifs. They said that the answer is no but the model is changing to more of a monthly cadence rif going forward.

Does not sound reassuring. People cannot work while continuously looking over shoulder my guess is this way they don’t have to make any media announcements

PepsiCo to buy Chobani Yogurts? Hearing deal is nearly done. Any one else heard this?

Heard there are talks for Q1 ent pub will take k-12, hi-ed healthcare, and slg and combine them into just pub. Any confirmation here?

I can’t believe how far Evicore technology has devolved. Two senior directors leaving - one of his own free will and the other pushed out by poor leadership. Potential (likely) sale of the company, projects slashed, additional layoffs looming. Nothing will be done because why fix the ship you are setting out to sea. Get the life jackets and rafts ready if you haven’t already.

Rumor on the street is that Apollo is going to sell off the HED business to get back their money. Looks like another round of firing is coming. Brace for impact everyone!
