Too many old-timers have been hit. I wonder if there's grounds for an age discrimination suit.

It’s just about money, and more money. Which, in reality, means we’ve been disproportionately shedding talent.

Was at this org in the mid two thousands. Worst environment I've ever seen. When I left on my own after 8 months, I was the 9th person to leave. Upper mgt here are sc-mbags.

I know it's still early, but I'm taking the lack of chatter as a good thing.

The anxiety had been building to a peak by the time I got notified. And at that moment, I realized I didn’t actually want to work here anymore anyway. Not a coping mechanism, just a sudden, clear realization that not only had I stopped caring about... — read more 

I heard one coworker tell that to another who'd just been laid off yesterday. He was actually trying to comfort him. The guy we lost has 12 years experience, the one who said not to take it personally has been here for a year and to say he still can... — read more 

I know layoffs are far from over, but what about this week?

When Oracle bought Cerner, they tried to convince us that there wouldn't be mass layoffs. That was enough to prevent a mass exodus. 3 years later and they've gutted the company. All of the buildings in KC are empty, even the campus they kept is a... — read more 

This is going to continue through October. Buckle up! This can't be true, right?

I wonder how Oracle will meet their targets for the DoD/VA, and the other two federal clients. Teams that were already short on people and missing deadlines are even worse off now. Cerner has been called before Congress for missing targets before... — read more 

Got laid off Sept 2 in Fusion apps just days from my 25th anniversary.

hey everyone! does anyone know if EMEA Apps will be impacted and what the timelines would be? I am sure that being in Europe it takes a bit more time to do the paperwork, but I am curious if anyone has any info. thanks!

Have layoffs started in EMEA for NetSuite?

Yes I was laid off on Sept 2 , part of the fusion team in that US . It happen , but I was a top performer and I never seen this coming. I seen there was a lot of people’s in my team that was acquire from other team that was probably not needed. This... — read more 

Is that still the best option to continue with or are there any good alternatives?

Sep 02 layoffs estimate for the 24 hours: 3430 jobs lost Methodology: $general slack channel participants count change. So those are people who lost access right away.

It looks that only numbers matters. It's now a CFO driven company. I've been told that no-one wants to join Oracle now, as can be fired in 1month, 1year. Or low paid jobs for intern/early guys. Even Gartner magic quadrant won't support, people hate... — read more 

There seems to be lots of layoffs in Fusion development, solution engineering, HCM, CX. Does anyone know of ERP ISEs affected at the IC level?

Any team, anywhere in the US?

Can we trade Def Leopard for Presidents Club? Pour some Sugar on the people who earned it!! Bring it back!

How the he-l do I even start a job search after two decades? I was convinced I'd retire here. I was given zero indications that I wasn't safe. I gave Oracle my all for so long and this is how they repay me.

Kicks off next week. I hear leadership is not going to be as stringent on hitting participation goal numbers. I wonder why! Layoffs, no focal. But don't worry folks, we listen, develop, and take care of our employees...

Any credible news about GBU layoffs in JAPAC today?

The irony that on layoff day O posts on Linked In that they are having Def Leopard play at O World in October. Maybe take care of your employees and READ THE ROOM.

Surprise Surprise Surprise today. Early morning call from manager & September 22,2025 made as my last day. YAP! came out of blue. But, no regret. Started as a rookie. Oracle got me on H1, processed my Green Card. Seen all in 30 years of service how... — read more 

Those folks would survive a nuclear bo-b...

By law we should have be given 90 written notice. Some states also have similar laws and require payments to the employee.

how do you track layoff totals real-time? the easiest proxy I found is #watercooler slack channel. it was over 40k participants at the start of the day. it's 39662 now. so it reflects ~1% global workforce reduction in 8 hours any better ways to... — read more 

Who all got impacted in Sambit Nanda / Angappan Ganesh’s team ? They said that entire team has been let go

The old boys club of Ric, Adam, Rob and Glenn getting rid of anyone that challenges them!

Any credible news about GBU layoffs in JAPAC today?

Laid off this morning (US). Outstanding performance reviews, raise last year, RSU's, etc. At least they gave us a month on payroll for the RSU's to vest.

A great deal of NetSuite(some very tenured, some high performers) were let go in the last round a few weeks ago. Any updates on NS and this latest round today?

Am I cooked? Czech Republic, EMEA, NetSuite

5 years+, top performer on the team. Was expecting a promotion and raise after this past review cycle, but promotion to “customer” is not what I was expecting.

Isn't this supposed to be done today?

It makes no sense. Oh well. 5 years as a system engineer gave me some great experience. Hopefully I can find something soon.

I’m hoping that’s it. Does anyone know if, when a team is hit like ours was, we’re safe for the rest of the week?
