I was caught in the wave of Forrester layoffs today, I am hearing they are laying off 200 employees. My call was sales people, most of whom either had good track records or were already overachieving for the year. We were by our sales leader that we were being relieved of our duties immediately and then she promptly left us with an EX representative. Forrester has no empathy or respect for their employees and that can be seen in the fact that a person on this call was in week 2 of Maternity leave. Speechless.

Sorry to hear this. I relate. I also got laid off by them earlier this year and felt so .... duped and naive. You felt this company talked all about its history and valuing its longtime employees and then they just dump you out into a really poor job market when healthcare costs are exploding.
Any word on how selections were made? First in first out? Performance?
Not only did they let go of the person who just came back from Mat leave, but they also let go of an expecting Parent who is due in May. The audacity of taking someone's healthcare away when they need it the most...this place makes me sick.
Seems like 150 people, 8%. Same boat. I found out on PTO. Lots of high achieving people let go, sounds like a lot of female leaders....
I'm seeing layoffs on the Research side, too, based on LinkedIn posts
