Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

11/2026 or 02/2027 LR

Is Cisco going to layoff people in 11/2026 or 02/2027? Which one is more likely?

Margin pressure and AI cost will be the primary factors.

5% in Nov. Murmurs about Feb as-well. Assume it will be quarterly unless stock reaction is positive post earnings

@ax so the list is already set and ready to go? Wonder if any VP+ (or someone in the know) can confirm!

11/26. The AI backstory is already starting to falter, even among well established AI related firms. I fully expect a significant labor cut announcement to juice the stock in November this year.
