Thread regarding Northwestern Mutual layoffs

7 replies (most recent on top)

@rq - Yes, each layoff cycle targets approximately 200 to 300 positions. I was included in this most recent round, which affected over 200 employees. The standard protocol allows those impacted to request a detailed report showing the total number of roles and those eliminated. Given that these reductions of roughly 200 FTEs have occurred quarterly since mid-2025, a clear pattern is emerging. The biggest wave will be after the data center migration where the top-heavy and useless VP/SD/AD brass will be cut.

@mv are there even 1400 tech roles to cut?

TG handed a mandate to BR to eliminate 1400 tech roles in 2026. Last week, I heard that bigger cuts are coming in 2027.

They will never be over.

Forge is all about getting rid of hundreds of people. The new way of working is all about working with fewer of us.

Seems like a new Quarterly tradition to keep everyone on their toes, I know GE likes to do this
