Thread regarding Illumina Inc. layoffs

At least morale is at an all-time low

I can barely drag myself to work. Most of my team isn’t chipper either.

I’ve heard from several sources that marketing people in the Bay Area were told to relocate to San Diego. Maybe they want to close the office space in Foster City?

Regarding Employees in the Bay Area were given the option to move to SD... is it true for only remote employees or AD and above role from commercial dept or apply to all Bay area employee working at Foster City Campus?

Well that settles it then, thanks for sharing. Time to start interviewing elsewhere before August hits.

It’s already happening in commercial. Employees in the Bay Area were given the option to move to SD. This is AD and above, for now.

I think for non-executives, there will be a window of opportunity for RTO at HQ with potentially a relocation stipend. If someone isn’t willing to relocate, they will be out of a job.

I think Remote workers eligibility will be reviewed again and only few might be allowed.

Any idea how that would impact remote workers?

Today our department was told that there will be an RTO announcement from Jacob in august. So back to the office full time guys. Because the GM doesn’t want to see empty offices we were told. Wow. This is going to help with productivity, morale, and boost the pulse survey for sure.

@ay You mean he likes everyone being onsite? He is not a fan of employees working from home if that's what you meant
