Bonjour, certains d’entre vous ont-ils déjà saisi les prud’hommes après avoir été licenciés dans le cadre du PSE 1 ? La grille de critères et de notation du PSE 1 était-elle détaillée ? Si certains ont engagé une procédure, pourriez-vous partager les... — read more 

Je voudrais savoir comment les salariés concernés par le dernier plan de licenciement ont été sélectionnés. Est-ce que la sélection s'est faite strictement sur la base de la grille de critères et de notation ? Et surtout, qui a pris la décision... — read more 

On se tape encore une fois une sale nouvelle : 65 personnes sur la sellette cette fois, après une première charrette quasi identique juste avant. Notre CSE ? Une putain de mascarade, complètement inutile et totalement vendu à la direction, ils... — read more 

Everything seems quiet. Feels like the time before the earthquake.....

All the gains from Investor day are gone. The market doesn’t believe in the AI bubble anymore. The benefits are only minimal and the cost has been highly subsidized up to this point. Most AI providers have been losing billions of dollars.

It has only just started. Almost everyone I know is already planning to leave the company after multiple rounds of layoffs with no clear strategy. Now, with the push toward agentic AI, R&D teams are being asked to train AI agents to do their jobs... — read more 

Can AI get to a point where it can generate a GDS when it's given the specs ?

I am starting a new job after my role was eliminated in August. I got the severance but I also hope that my payroll is continued :) Should I let them know? Or just enjoy getting double-paid?

The number of people managing the work compared with the number actually doing it makes no sense. Early on, someone told me that a small fraction of the staff would end up carrying almost everything. I thought they were exaggerating, but I've watched... — read more 

Any news? Is this happening?

So after the farm has been fully bet on ai, it's now up to us remaining & surviving employees asking ourselves what we can do to make this happen. Pretty amazing after getting hit with a number of layoff waves - and likely more to come after a... — read more 

Synopsys shares jump 13% after its fiscal 2027 outlook. AWS signed a chip-design deal worth more than $1 billion. Synopsys plans to buy back about $1 billion of... — read more 

So...does that give us any hope ? This sounds like a huge deal What's the reality behind it?

And the ones that are still here are busy looking for a way out. This place is done.

Got a notification of another PSE 2026 SEPTEMBER today.

I noticed on LinkedIn that Cadence appears to be aggressively recruiting senior R&D talent in the U.S., particularly in San Jose, where there are more than 100 job openings. After skipping RSUs in 2024 and the significant reductions in bonuses and... — read more 

The Investor Day is coming on 9/30. Do you think the stock will jump or fall?

Got laid off a few weeks back and have some questions on the RSUs. If stock continues to drop, should I cash these out now versus waiting until the end of my severance to get the full paycheck? I’m worried what I have in here will tank by the time I... — read more 

I've had bosses I loved and bosses I couldn't stand in my 20-year career, but I never dealt with so many bad ones in such a short stretch. Most of them somehow ended up during my current four years at Synopsys. Not a single positive experience with a... — read more 

"We no 1 in this , We're no 1 in that, We are market leaders, We have a broad portfolio" The fatigue is real

I need this job. I have a chronic disease and I can't afford being without either income or medical. Having to worry about more layoffs every single day has been only making me feel worse. It's not humane to expect us to deal with so much stress all... — read more

Jfc ,at this rate it will touch 300 soon. I don't even get RSUs , still as an employee, I want them to succeed, but dang this shi is tanking fast. Wonder what the elliot vultures are thinking seeing this shi

Leadership seemed convinced that getting rid of expensive senior employees would give the company a fresh start. Then they started bringing in younger workers and to nobody's shock, they didn't magically fix the bigger problems inside the company... — read more

So much for delivering systems

What are the details not included in the ceo and cto emails? The emails werent informative enough, im wondering what big things are left out in their emails

Inside scoop: Heard some concrete info from a very solid internal source about the roadmap for backfills. If you're a manager in the US, Canada, Germany, India, or France, you already know how brutal it is to replace departures right now. Managers... — read more 

Anyone up for starting a new small “Ansys” so we can all leave and join, and bring along colleagues who’s already been laid off?

Is that true?

If you were laid off in the US and over 40, you should receive a list of ages and titles of those affected. Can someone share the number of people laid off in their "decisional unit", as well as the number of people remaining?

Based on Shankar’s email, can we conclusively assume that layoffs are done for TPG at least? It seem to hint at that direction I would say.

Do you feel something strange in Shanker sending the email about moving on from the layoff? The email is supposed to be from the CEO.

Other states have different limits as to whether the layoff is published.

I'd ask if they're done for the year, but I'm not that naive.
