It is a very competitive job market at this time with hundreds of applicants for every job opening. I have lowered my standard and still unable to land a job. It’s still very disappointing for Sabre to cut us off and leave us out in the cold like an old unwanted dog after so many years of loyalty and dedication.

I heard there will be another round affecting worldwide before the end of the year. They are working through it right now
They laid off several people last week.
Sad to say, but if you are still looking for a job means sabre made a good decision.
E-team knew in January when Launch23 was another huge hole in the boat that layoffs had to happen. How many that attended were Impacted? It’s sad that upper Mgmt cannot be trusted regarding anything they tell us. Hard to tell if mid level believe what they are told to tell us below or they are afraid not to drink the koolaid. Sad times for all of us left.
The e-team is like all c-suite executives - corrupt and only care about their inflated salaries, inflated stock options and inflated bonuses. Just a few weeks before the big May 16 layoff the CEO out of his own lips - “no layoffs are being planned”. I still remember that town hall.
Harsh reality is Sabre E-team is worried about hanging onto their ride. If anybody below is needed to offload to stay afloat then so be it. Hard not to take it personal when you have sacrificed your family and personal time to attend all night calls trying to keep a customer happy and the boss looking good. Makes one Mad at yourself and Sabre for buying into the BS when they take your access away as they give you the shove off.
Sabre will most likely have another lay off in the next 12-18 months. Keep a close eye on earnings. If they do not have increasing QoQ revenue it indicates their $200m cost cut did not stop the hemorrhaging and losses will continue past their forecasted cash flow positive target.
