Within my org, it was mostly the managers and the directors that were let go for now
@bs You. Know. Nothing.
@bp Don’t be so naive.The CEO and McKinsey absolutely have a future operating model. You don’t undertake a transformation of this magnitude without a strategy for restructuring, eliminating redundancies, and flattening the organization.
@a7 "it’s about whether the role is essential to the future operating model."
What the actual fu-k are you talking about?
What "future operating model"? There's no "model", there's just more of the same desperate headless cocking about that we've had for the last 10 years.
You're clearly one of them.
"add unnecessary layers between execution and the C-suite," - Christ what an a--hole.
Managers are absolutely at risk in this transformation. If their responsibilities duplicate another team’s or their positions add unnecessary layers between execution and the C-suite, they become candidates for elimination or consolidation. The goal is a leaner organization with fewer handoffs, clearer accountability, and faster decision-making. Ultimately, it’s not about title or seniority. it’s about whether the role is essential to the future operating model.
I believe they are the main focus of this round. Rumors going around were Directors and managers with 3 or less people reporting to them were top of the list this time around.
Yes. Absolutely
