Paul just confirmed that SAP Ireland is impacted in the upcoming round. Any ideas/predictions on which teams and areas can be impacted?

Dublin and Galway aren't going anywhere. This is fear-mongering. Knock it off.
I've noticed recently Good Bye emails from HR. But I guess this is part of P24 and not the upcoming 1-2% Workforce transformation?
@a4 where can you share more information of is this just your thoughts? My manager showed a presentation that Dublin is a focus location for P&E. Why would sap upgrade it to that if it’s gone in a couple of years?
Global Workforce Transformation has to be right up there with right-sizing. What a great way to gaslight employees through nonsense jargon. It should be called - your job is transforming by going to India and right sizing basically means - the company will be at the right size once we fire a load of employees.
Gas rid? Those Germans at it again.
@c8 MD of Ireland mentioned it in the Q2 All Hands yesterday. My understanding from that AH is that it's not an Ireland specific layoff, it's part of the global Workforce Transformation, he was just saying that we would be impacted too.
Where is this news coming from? I don't see anything public.
@a4 Is this the general consensus? that SAP will be gone from Ireland completely, in a few more years?
@a4 SAP just keeps sc--wing up, before hiring people maybe they should do their homework.
My bet are on-prem, global and HR roles. Also check at seniority and payslip. You are above T4 with a good salary you are also at risk.
It is always intentionally vague what areas will be affected. Sap really seems to be trying to increase attrition without having to pay redundancies, the more uncertainty and stress they can put employees under the more may choose to leave on their own, really disgusting tactics
@a4 Relocation? Don’t know how that’d work if the relocation isn’t within Europe. Do you reckon CoE would be affected?
Signavio offering to gas rid of two development teams in Dublin - they have a choice to leave it relocate to another country. More to follow from other SAP teams. Ireland offices to close down in a couple of years as the government restricted technology related funding to SAP as the funding was supposed to be given out to startups and not large companies.
