Layoffs in Q4 2025

Rumors are getting strong that there will be big layoffs in Q4 2025. HR is preparing the lists. Each VP got a target number for their department. It will be a sad Xmas season for a LOT of people.

Sounds like it is going to be a quarterly thing from now.

Glad they are finally addressing the problem with all the under performers.


Missing targets for biggest customers

I wonder how Oracle will meet their targets for the DoD/VA, and the other two federal clients. Teams that were already short on people and missing deadlines are even worse off now. Cerner has been called before Congress for missing targets before. Give it a year or two and it might happen again.


How they can get so many things wrong is beyond me

If management had to spend even a single week working under the same strict rules they’re pushing on us, they’d see how unrealistic and counterproductive they are. It’s easy to make policies from an office far away, but when you’re the one dealing with constant pressure and impossible targets, those rules just don’t hold up. Maybe if the people making these decisions actually experienced them firsthand, they’d think twice before rolling them out.


Sell, Sell, Sell

Very strong focus on selling these days. From delivery partners to client partners: everyone has been asked to contribute to quarterly revenues. Looks like the old IBM days of shoving iron ( aka Z systems) down everyone’s throat and generate revenue.
