Thread regarding Charles Schwab Corp. layoffs

BAU Tomorrow

Then the next and the next etc. until they make the call. I’d say it’s this Tuesday or next at the latest. But those that know are probably not posting on here because they are “safe”. And they are probably dog people who don’t like cats.

At least your Branch Manager got the number of days for September and October correct. I would not have been surprised if a BM said the two possible dates are Sept 31 and October 30. Thank you BM.

FCs are the last to know. I take absolutely no stock in what a Branch Manager said.

Your branch manager gave the widest possible range to cover the bases and mitigate any risk, and take zero responsibility

Schwab trained 100%

@1peu+1oS45tP2 yea that’s not how that works..

There is so SO much back end work that goes into it for a company this size. The date (or dates) have been set for awhile and there’s been teams working round the clock preparing for it. Schwab needs to meet federal regulations AND state so they’re preparing for all the different states the org operates in (California alone takes a lot). Then there’s the distribution prep of email notification, meeting scheduling etc. doing it off the market isn’t the way it’s done

My spouse was on a team that prepared layoffs for their company last year and it was literally weeks of work to get ready for a specific date and working over the weekend right before it happened. It’s not a button they just push when it’s good for the stock price

People are hired to decide the layoff date based on stock market conditions. This is not a date which will be decided few weeks in advance. It will be decided few days before they do the layoffs.

3500 FTEs and 0 contractors. Contractors will not be part of the layoff cycle. They redo contracts for January and most might not keep the contracts.

Oh no! You were going to post layoff numbers and the target week?!?! To think, that some a-hole would actually "break their NDA" just for us. Woe are we who peruse this site! Such an opportunity lost.

(and just in case, yes this is sarcasm)

@jyv+1oS45tP2 if you're the person schwab wants around? then god i hope i get let go.

im sure posting here that you "know the date" makes you feel special. And im also sure you were totally going to post a target week... but you wont.

because you don't know it.

I am @jyv+1oS45tP2. I was about to at least post the numbers, give or take 500. But will no longer due so. You can all thank @gjj+1oS45tP2 and @dyl+1oS45tP2. I will just bask in my knowledge while you all suffer and wait. I could have given you the target week as well. But you kiss that goodbye too. Basking in the know. Basking in comfort of safety. Basking in laughter. Have a great weekend!

And yes I am safe.

In all honesty, wouldn't that be exactly what the EC want you to believe? I have likewise been told that I'm "safe". But I'm 100% aware that nothing is 100%. Bon chance.

I know the date. I am not a dog person. I won’t post because I am under NDA. And yes I am safe. I also know how many are impacted.
