Thread regarding VMware layoffs

Carbon Black laid off 40ish front line sales only

Don’t know how someone got 4,000 employees, but for the Carbon Black side of the house, it was around 40 sales managers that were given 2 months notice or offered a package. It’s all based on territory realignment now that CB is it’s own BU and doesn’t need to align to the core anymore.

The number was 300 or less than 1%. That's what we were told at meeting yesterday. And it'd over/,done now. Not performance based. Consolidation etc ..

They don’t have to issue a press release about layoffs if they give people enough severance. I’m not sure what that number is but I bet 2 months is more than enough to cover the gap.

There's so way lol. 4k is more than 10% of our workforce. It would hit the news.
