Is it going be mandatory performance cuts in October like Meta or do we wait until winter? Ryan’s message indicated it will be in the “coming years and quarters”, which implies one’s definitely happening between now and next summer.

What about locations classified as data centers? Denver and Ashburn? SVPs in VASPD are located there
As the financial teams, regional leadership, country management, local HR and other groups move toward finalizing their plans, it’s expected that information will start circulating in various directions.
Even without leaks, management has been signaling quite clearly which offices are no longer in focus: reduced engagement, lack of events, no budget allocation, absence of senior‑leadership visits, VLT announcements centered exclusively on work location strategy, and a complete freeze on backfilling. For most of the impacted locations & teams, the implications are hard to miss.
Ironically, remote employees will end up remaining through the initial layoff phase, since they are needed to retain and transfer knowledge from smaller offices being wound down into the major hubs, some may survive as long they represent a small percentage of the department.
I can confirm it. There are leaks that non hub offices like Atlanta, Los Angeles, Munich and Poznan will be closed by FY30.
Non‑hub locations with technical staff appear to be disproportionately exposed.
There are persistent rumours circulating in Foster suggesting that the organisation intends to consolidate most technical roles into a small number of major offices, with remote employees and smaller sites facing cuts.
Additionally, there has been a noticeable increase in transfer requests from employees in smaller offices seeking relocation to larger hubs, indicating that something may be developing internally.
@2ch exactly the same peopl
@2f0 multiple people predicted the recent 7% and warned against it
Just out of curiosity, why does anyone think that people who visit this site actually know what's going on regarding layoffs and future plans? Aren't all of us here just the cogs worrying about our jobs?
@2b6 exactly the same people (ex-visa employees) that were laid off, or new people on the same position?
Idk if there will be layoffs. I’m seeing a few people being hired back that were part of the last layoff. I think VISA realized Ai and VATC is junk.
@18k People from other countries are not even remotely a problem. The id--tic upper management are.
Your racism is not welcome here or anywhere.
@18k Lol you seem frustrated. Breathe a little more.
Why feb? What your rationale?
Hope it never stops. Keep going until the last OPT, H-1B, H-4, L-1, and L-2 that came in through an IT body shop is gone. Maybe then Americans will finally get a callback.
Whats wild is all the new job postings listed on their Visa Careers site within the last 2 weeks upto today.... Letting go of folks all while trying to fill their reqs is... interesting.
lmao
Performance in October.
A bigger layoff, around 7% again around February.
today morning
