ok well then.....he said yesterday was a hard day....however, today people are getting laid off. I guess his pre-recorded cryptic message means the team is safe?????

Same thing happened to me yesterday. It probably means you are safe. We were told the layoffs have happened and we were the people not affected

Data Scientist here , our SVP told that all the layoffs in HCM are done and there will be a meeting from ALI and Myself tomorrow.

So, if you have got this invite consider yourself safe.

They aren’t going to lay off people on a team
Call. It will be done individually. Awful either way.

It means everyone who is still left is going to have to work harder to make up for the ones that are gone. Now you'll be doing the work of three people, if you are already doing that then you'll be doing the work of five. All hands on deck - they want to work you to death until your time comes.

It’s probably just to say that whatever layoffs had to happen in A&BC have already happened and the rest of the folks are safe. Laure conducted a similar meeting today and mentioned that something similar will come from Ali as well

My ED and director are on the call, and so is most of my team. So I don’t think this is a layoff call. Or at least hope that it’s not
