it was said in the quoted report that 700 out of 800 Mio cost saving due to HGST/WD integration already achieved. Please correct me if I read it wrongly.

This would mean just 1/8 of previous lay-offs? Sound like good news to me as long as my job is not part of the 100 Mio cost savings left. but I am sure that WD achieve more than targeted.

@OW5Q2WB-4ppl Let's just say a recent experience with WD leads me to believe that at the very least, they will not be hiring any time soon.

Translation: WD believes that it can improve its bottom line by cutting personnel from its payrolls. :-P
