Does anyone take accountability at this company?
The chaos was understandable directly after the spinoff but what’s the excuse now? Processes change constantly, they’re inconsistent and inefficient. God forbid you bring it up to management, they just gaslight you into everything being your fault... — read more
What's the real reason for the employee survey and timing?
Will the CEO actually use them to make needed changes, including the ones that the last CEO wouldn't? Like replacing some leaders and managers (finally!)? Or could they be used to make layoff decisions?

It's time to warn others
Revenue is YoY down substantially, once again we have lost a substantial amount of customers. Existing account see little penetration of new offerings. The competition does not have this friction in the same or new account. Market share substantially... — read more
What's happening with cuts?
Any official news on a continuation?
Forced ranking
Is this what's been happening?
So long
After 13 years with VMW/AVGO/Omnissa I finally found a new role and left. It was a long time coming and honestly my only regret is that I didn't leave sooner. The management I was under was useless and my role kept getting worse and worse. I knew... — read more
New CEO, Different Caste, Trouble Ahead
KKR chose Amit Singh to lead the next round of layoffs. Which departments will experience the greatest headcount reduction, now "Shankar the Protector" is gone?
Quiet Quit
If you havent already please consider quiet quitting. People still take things seriously at this circus is laughable. It feels very similar to when Broadcom took over VMware, we had 2 years to spin out and now KKR is here to clean house. John Swaison... — read more

Predictions from mid-July revisited
this person was pretty much spot on: https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1kxe5swhw Q2 sales will lack both plan and the latest exec forecasts. Substantially. SVP of sales and several Director / Sr. Directors in sales will finally be fired in August. Not... — read more
The difference after leaving is unbelievable
My biggest regret is how long I stayed somewhere that made me feel like I was constantly doing something wrong. My new job pays better and I have actual freedom to do my work without someone picking apart my every expression or move. The constant... — read more
Atlanta meeting is such a waste of time
Bring a bunch of people here to tell them we such and are missing our numbers
More micromanagement and more toxicity in order to push people out.
With their ultimate goal to push people out, specially those who have been with the company for a long time, they are hoping to avoid having to pay out packages. This is now known as a fact. It also is now clear that management is now scrambling to... — read more
Big K's Linkedin posts
When is his last day.... his linkedin posts are quite telling
Why am I hearing about more layoffs?
What's going on?
Yay!!!
Ding do-g the witch is dead!!!
UNION?
Any workers looking to unionize and protect ourselves against layoffs and offshoring? As americans we have rights! BETTER CALL SAUL!
The main goal is to push people out and force them to quit
Micromanagement and fear tactics will continue... the main goal is to push people out and force them to quit. It is no secret what the management is doing, change people's roles to unrealistic expectations in order to save money and to make the... — read more
The cowards have risen
The sales manager cowards have all awoken from their coffins and have been unearthed - they cannot handle the pressure from the CRO and are funneling down the pressure. New VP nice guy but dud and already rolling out day 0 day 1 day 30 day 90... — read more
GSS redundant
GSS has had a steep consistent decline in new cases over the last period. How many customers have already left? I don’t believe it’s the AI solving the issues. If it is the AI — how long until support team is sacked
"Prediction" for the next 6 months
Q2 sales will lack both plan and the latest exec forecasts. Substantially. SVP of sales and several Director / Sr. Directors in sales will finally be fired in August. Not for missing the target, but for missing their own forecasts now several... — read more
Still no layoffs
Am I the only one getting nervous over the fact that we're still without layoffs? It's starting to feel like the calm before the storm - and the kind of storm that will be remembered for a long while. I hope I'm just being paranoid.
With all the useless Clari cr-p we’re rolling out
One would think our CRO has a relative that’s a Clari rep but that’s impossible because they all work at Omnissa. If you have to continue to repeat “this isn’t about micro management” guess what? It’s about micro management.
Who is buying Omnissa?
Rumors has it that is is happening very soon... I would put it be end of the year (perhaps sooner). The question is, who would be the buyer?
38 Trackers
Wow! Hope you’re blocking
Promotions but mostly for top management
The travesty of Omnissa continues under the disabled leadership of our CEO. Lots of folks got promoted at the top levels of management from directors to VPs whereas genuine promotions at lower IC levels were denied and sent back under the excuse of 8... — read more
How much longer until Omnissa sinks?
Given the current situation of our declining revenue and IP being less than attractive for an outside buyer, how much longer do we have until this ship sinks?
What kind of severance was given in the last layoff?
Was there any extended medical coverage included?
Focal review
Bonus and pay increases are in! What’s the general consensus?
Everyone is checked out
Never seen an entire organization all check out at the same time in my career like this. Nobody has confidence in leadership and I would estimate over 80% of people are looking for new jobs. Even new hires are skeptical, turn over the leadership... — read more
It is sinking deeper and deeper...
