Thread regarding Oracle Corp. layoffs

As The Oracle World Turns, Week of 10/23

With CloudWorld now over, up next is the long, slow ride to additional layoffs. In between Gartner MQs for some products, there isn't much to look forward to for O employees, is there?

What's the scoop this week and who's got bets on layoffs and more hiring freezes?

And they think they are safe in apps. SMH What kind of real investment has Oracle made in them. Still look like despite Redwood what they were when acquired years ago. Definitely functions the same. Oh, but we share the data model. That only matters when a customer is going all Oracle. Might as well choose best of breed and applications that were designed cloud first.

Travel freeze was a bad sign. Major cost cutting means nothing will be spared. There are no sacred cows.

Never thought I would say this, but I’m very glad I’m in apps and not OCI!

Industry teams may be more effective, but they will certainly lead to duplication of roles among the teams.
