OCI North America was just gutted

I was on the call with most of OCI's N/A division, and everyone who was on the call was laid off (including me.) Technically we're still employees until the 15th of this month, and we're still awaiting details of our severance, next steps... — read more 

Working through the uncertainty hanging around

Uncertainty is the worst. I've never been laid off before and it would be a big shock to me if I were affected, but in any case I would like to find out the bad news as soon as possible. When can we expect this round of layoffs to end?

Tuesday Update

Any new layoffs today to report? Do we have a headcount cut in your org?

The future of CX?

Speaking from someone in HCM... CX isn't a great product, but there were some great people in CX. They'll have to keep CX around, but I imagine they'll treat CX like they've treated the sunsetting of Taleo. The tough part is, what do you do with... — read more 

It's almost 'game over' for commerce

Any more layoffs in commerce and it will crumple inwards. Developers are spread too thin, and there’s too much legacy tech debt to overcome. Some teams have been good about getting rid of debt and transitioning, but most teams are clinging on to 20+... — read more 

Layoffs

Greetings. Although I have wished for better times I felt now as good as ever to extend a hand of friendship. At Cerner we’ve had layoffs for +3 years preparing to be acquired. It’s the not-so-secrete plan hatched after our founder died of Cancer and... — read more 

Is CX done?

I'm going to assume that areas that were already hit are done and the rest of the cuts will come from other departments/groups?

I might be paranoid

But the majority of people I know who were laid off so far are at least in their late 40s. At least. Most of them are in their 50s. Yes, I do know some people who have been here just for a few years who've been cut but they seem to be a minority. It... — read more 

Call in the morning

Just got a meeting put for my whole team of 100+ in the morning. I’m assuming this is more of the same tomorrow.

Explain severance pls

I just got the call this AM that “my position has been eliminated”. I’m still in shock so the .pdf explaining my package is all gobbledygook to me (I’m also neuro divergent so that prob factors in) I have 6 yrs at Oracle Someone explain how... — read more 

Where is the communication !!!

It is absolutely appalling that while the web is flooded with "unofficial" reports all about Oracle layoffs.  Not a word has been communicated from our leadership about what is going on and what they have planned around laying off employees. No... — read more 

It will get you exactly nowhere

Even if I survive these layoffs, I will do my best to leave Oracle as soon as possible. Because it will be terrible for the survivors. I already know what awaits them - more work than ever, more stress than ever. This has become a place where... — read more

Layoff Locations

From what I can gather today everything I am hearing is that Layoff's are being done in US. At time of this post (now 2 PM) on East Coast our offices are now closed in Europe and I haven't heard anything from teams over there about Layoffs. ... — read more

Severance

Any changes to the standard severance terms for the departing folks. Sorry to hear about the cuts, given all the rumors about big CX hits that we had over last two months I guess nobody is surprised any more. Let's see how this one ends up, it feels... — read more 

We have a long week ahead of us

Layoffs usually don't happen on Mondays, so the fact that we've already started means they need more time than usual to get it done. The number might end up being higher than we originally expected. I think we'll be seeing layoffs throughout the... — read more
