Heard from grapevine that between Oct to Feb, another round of axing going to happen across the board. How true is this?

@1mg 100 percent Rajat needs to go. Forget the race, as a leader he is an entitled and elitist. How he treats people and demanding is unacceptable as an EC member. On a power trip and needs to fall off that train
@OP 2 rounds. One this week, one in Feb.
this company’s quality has gone down the drain, code ai generated , large prs with tons of ai related comments and descriptions that make no sense bugs everywhere in the code and logic no human is properly reviewing it or understanding it and pushing it out anyway, rajats mandates which again leads to more AI slop to answer them , release process has gotten worse, more metrics to track engineers from PRs, to lines of code to , times spent reviewing this ai slop , cant wait for the next dizaster where leadership instead of taking responsibility for their choices and adoption of AI decide to blame engineers who they have constantly ignored and then lay them off
@1aj agreed... forget culture. this is straight up white-collar crime. body shops are faking job titles, running fake payrolls, and importing cheap labor just to push Americans out. it is bleeding this country dry. there is a reason why housing is insane, and educated Americans are literally living in their cars right now. it need to be cracked down now. it’s not a race thing, it’s just a giant scam. These nonsense will deliberately try to divert the h1b corruption topic towards racism.
@1cd Dont think so that h1b has any pro.. The program can be debated, sure. but you're arguing the wrong thing. this is not about race. its about body shops using the visa to bring in cheap labor, lie about job duties, and push Americans out. that is not a culture thing, that is breaking immigration law. it is literally why DOL just suspended PERM for a bunch of the big IT firms.
and Americans have every right to be pi---d about it. this has hurt millions of Americans who did everything right. if you want to debate the program, debate it. but don't act like the fraud is not real just because some people bring race into it.
Yes big layoffs in the next few months. Looking forward to it.
@yp And people need to keep in mind who at Visa allowed this to happen.
@c6 : The cuts are needed, but not for the reason you think. You're talking about people taking long coffee breaks. I'm talking about a system that the Department of Labor itself has flagged for 'displacement of U.S. workers' and 'inadequate recruitment.'
H-1B is a temporary visa. It was never meant to be a permanent pipeline for outsourcing firms to flood the market with lower-wage labor. The government's own Project Firewall exists specifically to investigate this. The DOL is auditing companies for 'misrepresenting job duties' and 'giving preference to H-1B workers when qualified U.S. workers are available' .
If you want a lean organization, start by cutting the fraud. The feds are already doing it. We just need to help them by reporting what we see.
@ne lies
Yes it is happening now. I heard some news and some NDA’s
100% happening - Feb supposed to be bigger than Oct
Who knows, but they are hiring back people from the last layoff cause VATC is overhyped trash.
Let's be honest, the cuts are needed. An awful lot of people in my office seem to be having a nice time not doing very much and going on endless coffee breaks. As an employee and shareholder, I want to see a lean organization, not just giving people jobs for the sake of it.
More grapes from the vineyards
Yup heard it from above
