They created such an ugly atmosphere full of tension, I can’t even concentrate on work. The manager expects me to ignore the fact that the cuts are around the corner and expects us to work harder than ever. Well, that's not the way it works. I don’t know if anyone can give their best in an atmosphere like this?

july 15 is what the rumor mill says but take it for what it is
If you search LinkedIn hashtag: #PayPal….at least 8 employees I’ve found, so far, have been let go from Dundalk. They’re sharing status on how it’s their last day, being cut due to redundancy, etc.
Layoffs can be any week, any day. They're more likely to coincide with other major business decisions (such as leased office space contracts) for which we will not be made aware.
There is no point in working harder - layoffs might hit lower performers but I've seen plenty of really great people get hit.
I wish I had good advice on concentrating at work, but I don't, because it really is difficult. I try to just keep learning new skills in case I randomly get the axe.
Anyone have a timeframe? Keep hearing July but imagine it can't be the first week with the US and CA holidays.
What did you hear about with cuts? When are they?
Just take it one day at a time. The remaining agents are all dealing with this
