Even amid all the cuts, there are still hundreds of open positions. If you don't believe me, go and check. How does that make sense? We're supposedly getting rid of people to save money, while hiring more folks at the same time. Why not implement a hiring freeze instead of layoffs?

Layoffs while hiring are happening because skill requirements have changed. If you were hit, it’s because Comcast does not believe you are worth retraining. It’s easier to buy talent than to curate it!
It’s called spill and fill!
@a5 true - and I was able to confirm some of the budgeted ranges for the replacement roles in our org (not the actual range but full blown what the expect to pay) and it was over $30-50k less than previous, depending on the geozone. Sad….
Cutting positions and giving them the option to reapply for other positions with lower pay. Hardly seems fair.
8000 impacted and 200 positions with most of them relocating to HQ.
Are these just a small fragment of positions being hired back on like last year? and how many have gone overseas?
Most of these are groups impacted that have to reapply. So could have reduced 20 roles to 5 and now to keep it consistent they interview for the role vs just being selected and then called out for favoritism.
