Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

Next LR date or are we moving toward PIP factory?

I’ve heard the new my performance thing is a way to speed run the PIP because they can use AI to summarize your history and check if it can justify a PIP.

Want to get out of here via LR not PIP preferably. Anyone know if there’s gonna be one in November?

Please only respond if you’re a super official person that heard it from G2 himself

@fn

funding they need for AI

really? Why Cisco has so many LCAs for 2026? its not funding they just want your job for replacement.

Because Cisco and other high tech companies overtired and now layoff are to come up with the funding they need for AI. The reason for layoffs is not that AI is replacing employees!!

@OP G2 said LR is needed to pay for AI token cost.

It will definitely be in 02/2027, but would not rule out one in 11/2026 which may be limited in scope.

There you have it! 🤣🤔

This would not surprise me at all. I suspect they will have a LR or two before legal is comfortable with AI tools calling the shots on PIPs. Thus the AI will probably be utilized to analyze the next few LRs.
