10/26 Layoffs Tracker - Let’s keep everything in one place rather than 20 different threads. Post information you’ve heard/experienced here. Please be detailed (anonymously of course) if possible, IE position, region, etc.
Good luck to everyone today.
@ck the meeting was added an hour before the call from our VP and the subject was Business Update. Our Director had it on his calendar 45 minutes before our. The VP was on with HR and the director (all laid off) telling our team.
@cq If you make it to your severance date in your paperwork you will get paid out your severance. If you severance date is 12/31/26. You need to stay in your current role until then to get paid out if you want your severance. If you get another job before your severance date, you likely won’t get your severance. Make sense? From my experiences of 3x lay offs each time got my severance and then got a new job.
@f9 was trying to put this as a reply to another post, to explain the vagueness
@cq tried to reply to this, but must have replied to another post. i got laid off in '23, had another job shortly thereafter, severance continued.....and now im back :)
@cq does not stop. i got laid of in '23 and had another job a month or 2 later, but severance continued. now im back...
Finance professional are in charge.
This will boost the earning by atleast 10%, thus improving the debt/equity ratio for the spin off companies making them both investment grade.
@ck in California, the construction leaders that were impacted got an invite about 2 hours before the call. Then the leaders that were staying had a call 30 minutes after that.
Then the NPMs that were impacted had a call right after that.
“Organizational Update” is the subject line.
Sorry for the d-mb question but how does severance work? If you get a new job does your severance pay stop?
How and when are these notifications being sent? Is it a last minute meeting invite? Was the meeting added to your schedule early in the morning? Give us more clues to look out for
Our HQ teams in Customer Experience and TTX were impacted with lots of teammates getting the notice. No rhyme or reason to who they were picking it felt so all over the place.
This has me feeling like I should’ve just taken the 2025 layoff. Most of those folks are now in stable, secure jobs. Meanwhile, we thought we lucked out getting jobs but come to find out, we’re not and just facing more anxiety this year AND then again in March 2027. At least the folks that left and have jobs have job security and certainty. So who was actually better off?
Heartland here, we had 2 of our construction teams hit this afternoon (2/3 gone including there supervisor) Our team is still complete. Do we know if there done with the reaping for construction?
@bz I want to make sense of it too. In my dept alone high a mix of high performers and low performers were let go. Newly hired people stayed. Oldest people to the dept stayed. There seems no rhyme or reason.
@bz no one is safe
For groups not totally axed, any word on how people were chosen? It's definitely not just low performers, some look like people who were newest to that department, or even some who were with the company the longest in a group.
@b3 I'm guessing to avoid contact with those being let go
Has anyone heard about the non frontline or operational jobs that are more people-centric like social impact, government affairs, and public relations groups?
I just got pulled into a meeting today and a couple managers, (including my direct manager) was laid off. Im in TPX CONNECT. we got reorged around and its managed chaos by the same people. This one wasn't any different than the last one. Just targeted critical leaders
I have heard bunch of people got their notices today in Comcast Technology Solutions I know atleast 7 of them, note sure how many besides that
@bf not all of them but as soon as the cuts started happening today there were many job postings put up on the job boards straight out of the ciec just not right
PNR (WA/OR) Region Construction / Construction & Engineering. Happened today 10/26. 80 people including frontline construction NPM are gone after 12/31.
@ba would you give us a hint on the team? Eng or product or construction?
@be i doubt anyone would divulge much info here :-(
@OP construction in heartland was just impacted. Design as well
@bc I don’t think it would make sense to add another long term liability while company is cutting cost here at home. One more thing people need to know is that labor laws are way more favorable in India compared (for employee) to ours at will employment, laying off people is not as easy. Even with reduced cost, it will not allow company to show that they are trimming long term cost, sure they will continue to hire in CIEC but not necessarily replacing all the people who they are laying off here.
Those who are impacted, can you please post some high level details on your role?
@as job go straight to the CIEC board?
@ba what time were you on? So sorry.
Half my current team, My manager, My director. Last day 12/31
Absolutely unreal that company leadership can't be bothered to publish a memo. It would take no time to type out a short notice stating the number and scope of people impacted, and that the path forward for those being laid off versus remaining is XYZ.
Basic decency costs nothing, and yet I continue to be let down.
Fu---n pick me bro
some really good people have been let go already today.....hear it is going to get worse.
@b3 what group are you with?
@b2 i think this is exactly it, those who had the badge “issue” they submitted our deactivation date ahead of informing us. check your SAFE profiles, end date 12/31/2026 likely you are laid off too (this is just a guess)
Was just told by our manager that SLT is ordering us to WFH for the next 2 days.
Has anyone checked safe.cable.comcast.com/start ? Under My Profile > My Access Areas, some of us have "activation date" 10/19/26 (the date the card readers had an "issue") and "deactivation date" of 12/31/26. Others have a random month/day but it's a year gap, so 06/01/26 - 06/01/27, for example.
@b0 I think we're just going to be on edge for the week. I doubt I will hear anything at all unless we get the axe. Hurry up and wait unfortunately...
@az think our direct leaders will be told when all they layoffs have concluded? or is everyone who's safe just gonna have to be on edge the rest of the week?
Be nice to your direct leader unless you report to a VP+ . Lower management doesn't know anything. At least I don't, and my direct leader, and skip level leader don't. I guess they could be lying, but I don't think they are.
