anyone know if the recent round of layoffs were more senior individuals? In my department, the newer folks were retained

Of course it's seniors. Typical layoffs to recruit new ones paid less and justify weak performance to boneless management
From what I’ve seen, it doesn’t seem to be seniority alone...
There are some patterns around higher-cost roles and functions that may be easier to automate, centralize, or consolidate, but I’ve also seen newer hires affected.
I know the uncertainty is stressful, especially for people still waiting to see what happens. Hopefully we get more clarity soon.
Scalpel then the Ax. Some key SVPs got pink slips in last few weeks. Next to get the Ax are their direct report VPs word is all blokes. What a shame indeed.
It’s mainly Seniors.
I’m in the London office. I do senior sales and we’re all sh-t scared. Our senior regional director got laid off apparently. Obviously no transparency either.
@OP how are they determining who gets laid off?
