I heard from 3 reliable sources that the next round of layoffs will be for team leads and junior managers. I’m actually looking forward to this happening. Not sure of the timeline though.
Odds of being recalled (just in general and this company specifically)
My first layoff. The papers they gave us basically say it's possible they could recall laid off workers if they can expand business but that you should not count on it and you should consider the layoff permanent. Certainly not counting on that ever... — read more

WTI is now crossing 33 mark. I am thinking whether it was a hasty decision by HAL to cut all those experienced tech employees who may not return to HAL again if needed in near future.
Still waiting for severance package to hit my account
Its been three weeks already. Lot of water has passed through. On May 5 phone call, HR told me it would take 2-3 weeks to get the package. Didn't see anything yet. May be too much work to process by leftover people.
This was the start of the lose of good key personnel and morale
SAP “Start Adding People” slowed HAL to a snails pace. It handcuffed some great personnel and tied them to data input instead of what they should be doing. Some had to use additional methods of data collection to get equipment and materials to... — read more
