Uhh, note to @3cvt+1pi203ky, the number of drives shipped over that same period is down 500%, and shows no sign of stopping. Every year we ship fewer drives. Welcome to the hard drive business.

When will the layoff be announced? At least two months on the payroll afterwards?

expect revenue and eps to be in line with estimates, that cloud titan inventory digestion is lingering a little longer as they continue to focus on efficiency and allocate CSP to AI infrastructure, and chatter about the strength of our portfolio and products

The November layoff has a code name.
It begins with the letter V and ends with the letter a (no it is not va---a)

Layoffs are a definite. Will be losses. Eps will stink. Layoffs will not be shared on call. DG is shady and plays games on Layoffs and notifying. I would live to be a fly on wall at next BOD.

That one guy who said about layoffs in November also mentioned another detail that made me trust him/her because I heard the same detail from a VP. I'm not going to mention what that detail is because there were only a few people in that meeting with the VP.

Of course there is going to be layoffs. Otherwise how will DG get his 30 Million.

We will beat earnings. We will not announce layoffs. But mid November there’s going to be layoffs anyway.
