A relatively higher percentage of senior management will be let go, some BUs will be closed. There must be reasons why the layoffs were pre announced and now in the news.

@dn it doesn't make you a trump supporter it just makes you poor at economics.

If you only hired burger chugging White Americans, any company would go bankrupt in few years.

If it is really a performance based layoffs, can they get rid of some of the incompetent managers in the PMIC team in SD, specifically Sr Dir Xiangf Ma and his buddies.

Is it even legal to announce performance based layoffs, anybody who gets laid off will not be able to find a new job, as future employer will have a bias that it's low performer. Although more low performers army of Sr Drs are protected by SVP RFIC KS, just because they are of his origin

Severance is always the sane one to two weeks for every year you are employed. 39 years 20 to 30 weeks.

Makes sense to me. 5 percent usually you dont even send a notification out and just do silent layoff like usual. This time seems like it will be big. Time to get of the internet and use time to prepare the resume. Market is dead that is all you can control anyways. Good luck to all.

Microsoft laid off a lot of workforce in the USA last year rendering them in a hot pot for H1Bs and Green Cards. Based on this, it's not good news for visa holders... You can't do a layoff and next year file for thousands of visas or green cards...
