I'm always worried about going back to work on Monday. Always wonder if this is the RIF week. I can't be the only person feeling this way. Comments

Well, here we go again. We are going to start a new narrative cycle with the street based on a magical restructure. Excom is counting on this holding up the stock and holding up hope for improved performance - "we just need to make these changes... — read more 

The next month will bring a lot of restructuring and layoffs. It is a harsh reminder that none of us are indispensable in the corporate machine. Remember that this job is not your identity or your measure of worth in this world. Best of luck to all... — read more 

Manager warned us in a team meeting that execs are taking RTO extremely seriously, and implied they’re looking for people to layoff because of it

I started counting when I got laid off. Two hundred twenty four applications. That's about eight a week. Eleven of those turned into actual calls with recruiters. Twenty eight interviews total across phone screens, hiring managers, panels. Four times... — read more 

Rumors swirling robotics will be spun out for IPO or private equity.

Group RIF'd today. 8-12 people over 3 shifts.

Sounds like years in the making. What does this mean in terms of greater company structure? Spinoff? Reorg? More jobs offshored?

This org structure and function is not sustainable. Layoffs inboard.

Something about HeADWinDs

Heard from upper management that vendors being laid off come FY27. Furthers the agenda of PCS in Galway Ireland.

All hands on May 20. What will we learn?

How did we get to this point where corporate America is a country club where we will never obtain membership. Years ago Medtronic was great place to work until the outsiders wrecked it with their paper MBAs. Everyone I know is a clock puncher now... — read more 

Word is that anyone who is non-compliant with this quarter's RTO workstyle insights will be layed off. Only recourse is an ex-com stay. Time to start badging in or get your sad story ready and hope for the best.

Adios Geoff! Reveal of new org structure.

Anyone else hearing the MIP is targeted to be 100% of payout? I'm excited !

That's the overall impression I have. When was the last time leadership came up with a strategic innovation and growth plan that actually makes sense? One we could get behind and invest ourselves in, because it would be in our own interest too? I... — read more 

No layoffs before May? Is that correct?

So, EM became a major shareholder of MDT and I would have bet the farm that GM had initially had discussions to come in to help with his agenda. Everything GM is doing now is exactly what EM would want anyways. But, the MDT position will be the worst... — read more 

I left 3 years ago, and man, I loved it at MDT. I had a great boss, great work, and just the best work friends ever. I was happy with my salary and benefits, too. I learned a lot and became a great professional largely because of my time there. They... — read more 

Geoff transformed a strong healthy Oak into a decaying hollowed-out tree. TIMBER!!!

Are there layoff expected in Minimed to return to profitability, to boost share prices? Any thoughts

If leadership insists that work is most productive within office walls, I’m happy to lean into that philosophy. Moving forward, my office hours are my only hours. The 'after-hours' emails and evening catch-up sessions from the couch are over. If the... — read more 

The top people here don't actually do anything. They just collect checks while toxic behavior runs wild. It's changing everyone. You watch people turn into versions of themselves you don't even recognize. It's honestly frightening.

With the average cost of gas is $3.32/gal , and no end in sight with the war with Iran, will the RTO be loosen especially when gas prices continue to skyrocket the longer we stay in the war? We’ll soon be losing money just to go into the office to... — read more 

Priced below the proposed offering, ended the delay below the IPO price, and took Medtronic down almost the full value of the spinoff. Man Geoff, Que and the whole gang are hitting on all cylinders. This is the flywheel of innovation at work i... — read more

Once I stopped obsessing over the highest possible pay, I found tons of opportunities. I want a place with actual culture and job security, all things Medtronic lacks. Less money, sure, but 15 percent less is worth it for my sanity. Interviews are... — read more 

My source is never wrong. And feels like this year will be big. That second part is an opinion.

I talked with a friend in private equity (He works at Blackwell) and he says that CST will soon be spun off to private equity. So just like Diabetes, folks that work at CST - you can expect to soon work for a spin off. Also FWIW, the company name... — read more 

Regarding layoffs, at least Jack Dorsey (CEO of Square, CashApp, Tidal) is being transparent, while Medtronic is not: “we're not making this decision because we're in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to... — read more

The next round of layoffs is expected on April 7th, 2026. WARN letter in California states it will happen this day for Minimed folks. The rest of us are on notice. Expect layoffs every quarter folks. Are you on the bottom of the totem pole?

PSA ... if your manager is a good guy/gal Try not to sc--w them with poor scores ! Save them for Excom members !

Management talks to us like we're machines, not people. The pay doesn't come close to matching what peers make elsewhere. Add in the constant pressure and zero respect, and it's getting harder to remember why I stay. The only thing keeping me going... — read more

Congrats to all. Looks like layoffs postponed for now.

Anyone else here feel like their manager is constantly throwing work your way just to seem busy so the manager can appear like they had accomplished a lot of goals for the quarter??

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like we now work in an alternate universe? It’s like a new operating manual has gone out to a select few as to how we all should behave and function in our roles and interact with others and none of it makes any... — read more
