Thread regarding Sabre Holdings layoffs

Can’t wrap my head around how people were chosen

Moore released - why? While other as—ki*sers are kept? Make it make sense.

Seeing some of the great people let go at the higher levels (DM, GP, PM), it looks like they're flattening the org and kicking out good engineering types. For those who are left, who's going to bring that reality to executive conversations? It's easy for business to deprioritize the parts they don't see (that bring quality, stability, etc.) until systems are really broken.

Competent individual contributor got axed, incompetent principal stayed. Difference? High and moderate costs locations plus how difficult the labor laws are.

Anyone else think age played a factor. Most I know that were laid off were older.

In my area, it was senior and above that had only been with the company a short time, probably to save on the severance. They’ll probably even save on the 401k vesting since some weren’t there 2 years.

Pretty damn pathetic.

I agree. Some low performers were kept and some good managers got the axe. Did any Directors and VPs get hit or was it mostly managers?

makes perfect sense, your ability to do the job and how well you do it is the last thing that matters.....that's how it's always been everywhere
