Interesting timing for Global Trading pres change out announcement ... Trading made lots of money last quarter ;-)

Any MC insider here?

Layoff, is it happening if yes when?

Since layoffs usually happen on Wednesdays, any insight into if there will be JDs tomorrow?

Anyone know if we’ll be part of the 4/30 exodus?

Seems like they are going to announce it on the 12th, this may be a formality for more some ppl, but 5 of us were let go, and more to come.

Mark this date-May 4,2026 It's going to happen

I've been hearing there are no more set schedule of when layoffs will happen. They can happen every week. Anyone know more about this?

Watch this space.

05/05

This is the time of the year. May or Jun.

SD just told me that on May 7th there will be a RIF and it will be 10% across all markets and bands, AI driven. I will be out on sort term for 60 days and wanted to know if I will have a job to come back to. My SD said I am good but their will be a 10% RIF on May 7th and a few co-workers might not make it so not to be alarmed when I come back. Good luck all, and May the force be with you all!

No emails, no notable departures, and now most thinking about it into next week. Poorly executed already. At least last year was done the next day. Typical step backwards.

Some outlets are reporting 20% or more in total for 2026.

I've heard that rumor one too many times. After all this preparation, couldn't they just rip the bandage off in a day or two? Why leave us hanging for weeks? Haven't we had enough stress already?

Hearing a rumor that there will be layoffs and notifications beginning the first week of May. Any truth?

Why did it take so long to officially announce Omar’s departure? Jeff has been in the role since February.

Florida will have cuts at the end of this month in a certain team. They just want all the work finished first, then May 1 there will be a 5 min outlook invite.

So here we are thursday and what nothing? I mean there is one more next week but still.

There’s a big discussion about May 26 big layoffs in my team. Have anyone heard anything about May 26?

Some people say June, others July

Which is it ?

Finance notification dates below. Off payroll date depends on your State.

April 24 - Band 5
May 7 - Staff

Lists of folks have already been submitted.

Layoffs right after Easter. Because why not. I hate this place.

Someone said there were rumors of a voluntary buyout, any truth to this? Timing?

Anyone know when pds process starts this year? Haven't heard a peep.

Doing layoffs on a Tuesday after a payday? I keep seeing it reiterated by people on Reddit

Source from HR 7K+ … March 26th

March is odd timing to communicate as well.

Looks like the February layoffs are complete & a reorg being announced this week in the TH. Any reliable info on if we’ll see another round of layoffs in 2026? Timing? What’s everyone hearing?

I haven't heard or noticed anything unusual. Which doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things. Not that I'd be surprised if it's real.

Anyone else find it sus that merit got delayed to 2/16? That aligns with multiple reports of layoffs on 2/16. People on my team are hearing the managers are going to deliver severance papers instead of merit to those who are being let go. Normally I don’t listen to rumor but the dates are lining up and leaders are very quiet lately and I think they’re avoiding having to talk to us. Everything was so rush-rush before OE but they’re silent now. Then we get an email that a bunch of people got forcefully moved and were supposed to work hard and feel safe?

Is that what we're looking at? Media reports mention 2,000 total. We all know they lay off on non-pay weeks. Apparently, it should all be wrapped up by the end of February. If it's true, tomorrow is going to get really bad. Oh well. Not like I expected anything better.

Wondering if any noise around layoffs coming before the common reviews are completed. I thought they were to be scheduled this week or next week? It seems so quiet and slow.

It seems that there have been more layoffs today, primarily on the account delivery side. Right before the 401(k) match payout. Not sure if this is widespread or localized. These do not appear to be rebadging events.
