Wait... 2 months... for how many years of "exceeds expectations"?!? What happens to annual bonus?
This is the only company with more managers and directors than actual engineers. They all survived the layoffs, which tells about how this place operates.....
Thousand is still not confirmed by official announcement. What is clear is that there have been a number of layoffs. Mostly in engineering teams. FICO announced a work from home week for this entire week to avoid panic. By tomorrow, we will have a better picture.
1000 people is a lot . We are sc--wed
Around 1000 people were let go today in October 5, 2026. Many people received a meeting invite with their managers or skip level managers. Some people lost access to Servicenow accounts. And it turned out that they were all fired. This was being discussed and rumoured for a long time and here it finally is. Engineering and product teams were hit the hardest. The common criteria seems like they targeted anyone with more than 5 years experience. And its been very random, even people considered critical resource were let go. Ofcourse boot li---rs and anyone with relatives in the management survived as usual. FICO is a fu---d up company.
