Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

today's beat call

everyone ready to hear FK refer to you as "team" 100x times and talk down us all like we're children? Company morale would improve if they just cancel the FK and CR monthly show.

I disagree on the fires. Why do we expect our leaders to comment on every natural disaster or thing happening in the world. It's not necessary. We're trying to run a freaking tech business. That's all I want to hear about coming out of their mouths. Not about how they feel bad for or whatever they are doing for the fire situation. If they want to do that, just do it and post it online. You get one hour with your employees focus on getting sh*t done.

Last year they blamed the LRs on a “leak”. What will they blame it on this year?

So was there any hint about the coming LR, like when it is going to start or at least start being discussed openly ?

They haven't announced LR's or discussed them openly since CR took over from JC except for the "voluntary" one they did in '22 when they send out the notices that people were "potentially impacted" and you could either volunteer to be LR'd or look for an internal position and risk getting LR'd if you didn't find one.

"We have to make hard decision" it's about firing Fran, right? Right?

more than a full week has gone by and not a single word from the ELT about the LA fires. Shameful
