Yall read in to too much, Cisco has to plan LRs 3-6 months in advance, if something is happening in the next few weeks it’s been decided for a while. Also, been here 10 years. Quiet layoffs happen every quarter, but they only do mass ones in May and August

The recency bias some people have about Cisco "only doing layoffs in certain months" is absolutely baffling. Anyone saying this has clearly not been around very long.
@v5 go to other company threads. November. Throughout
Except when they do it in November.

people here seem to think that a massive 4-5000 person cut is the only way to let people go. any individual can get laid off at any time and those are not announced like LRs do.
