Anyone from Ops Sourcing been laid off? Do not think I have heard of anyone from that group get a notification?

Anyone else see a mass exodus on the horizon? I think they fumbled this one.

Just wondering if any of you have heard anything. Not sure if they've stopped for now.

I've heard that phrase thrown around a few times but there hasn't been any announcements on it through official channels. Is it a subset to the "roadmap to extraordinary" program that they're using to justify layoffs?

If my group was already affected on Tuesday, does that mean we're safe for the rest of these cuts? My manager is being very tight-lipped and I can't figure out why. If the answer is "no," then just say it. I'd rather know that than have to deal with... — read more 

Doesn’t make much sense from a business perspective. So GM supervises himself and evaluates his own performance? What could go wrong? Oh, yeah, the state of Medtronic today.

Has anyone else heard that the GI division is up for sale?

At what point can the ExCom be required to take responsibility? How much more do they need to fu-k up before they get canned? At what point do we say, okay enough....this fu----g a--hole doesn't know what he is doing? Medtronic is not Geoff Martha's... — read more

Is everyone getting it the day before? Or is anyone getting it the day of? Anyone just been pulled into a meeting? It seems like most people are getting a business update meeting notice the afternoon before?

Laid off yesterday and did the thing where I input my personal email for the severance package communications. Received my own but this morning I received someone else’s! Full of personal info, salary information, full severance documents, etc. How... — read more 

I'm hoping for the best, although I'm mentally preparing to hear that I'm no longer needed here. It is a big disappointment to give your best for many years and then get laid off in the end. However, I realized that these layoffs should not be... — read more 

Guys any news on CRM layoffs yet? Its awfully quiet here. Also its crazy startribune had an article on how the company was filing and all the layoffs. I hate that the company spokes person said that the lay offs will continue for months.. like is... — read more 

It's as if they did not care that we are feeling anxiety and uncertainty of whether we will lose our jobs or not. Their goal was to make the news of the layoffs resonate as little as possible in the public, and whatever happens to us, the loyal and... — read more

For those impacted, what was the severance package offered?

None of them do anything useful anyhow.

Will the layoffs continue at the same intensity or will it just be the people who, for whatever reason, were not readily available to notify? I know GM said that the layoffs will last for months, but there has to be a point where it goes from a major... — read more 

Like many of you, I have been checking back here more than I care to admit. I personally have not been impacted (yet), but I feel for all those that have been as well as the rest of us sitting on the edge of our seats. This is a great place to vent... — read more
