@b5 also current employees spreading rumors. There are a lot of Karens, older Kens, Rajs and Jens and Laxmis that have no work and spend time here spreading rumors.

@b5 You must be a manager or director, hopefully not a VP. Why else would you be on this site if you think it is unreliable

@b7 People always post here the day of RIF. It sounds like a smaller action today (which is probably good news) but that doesn't mean some RIFs haven't been delayed.

@b8 If you don't believe in healthcare, it probably isn't the right fit for you.

@ac When I was RIF'd, the very last thing I felt like doing that day was coming to this site and telling everyone. In the layoff script I was told I wasn't allowed to tell anyone that day (not even my own team.) I was allowed to communicate the news with my coworkers the following day. It will take a day or two or longer for people to come forward.

@ap I am OI as well and have not heard of any layoffs on our side. I was kind of surprised to be honest. That is why I was asking what departments.

Lets be honest here.

India isnt getting RIFFED.
Its only just gone 930 central. Most, if not all the calls will be happening now.

They are calling it downsizing. Its not, its moving.

If there were layoffs today, than people would share the info - like department, location, how many in the group were cut, etc. since they have nothing more to lose.
