Thread regarding Morgan Stanley layoffs

February Layoffs

Fishbowl app is saying layoffs coming in WM by end of February… would not make sense for them to let people off AFTER bonuses are paid, right?

Is the complexes downsize a fact? Going down to 50 is major hit.

Nothing at etrade so far. The rumor in the office is that etrade is not impacted this time

The Fed reported inflation isn't curtailed and that leads to Banks reacting. Interest rates are not going down anytime soon.

MDs, EDs, if numbers are not met all others get impacted.

Is it only WM or other divisions will be impacted as well?

I hope I get laid off. I hate this place. And I’m not alone.

I see all these comments on WARN. It’s very simple - you get “laid off” on X date but you technically are still employed usually for 90 days. They file the WARN notice in compliance which is 60 days, so 30 days after you find out. Nearly every company does this workaround so by the time you see a WARN notice you were already laid off

There was a WARN notice for April 2023 round. 453 total in NY metro. The Nov 2023 round there was no notice online. But hundreds were impacted too

Are you sure? I've seen a lot of jobs being posted by MS in the last week - month? Wouldn't they be cutting back on job postings?

Heard today from 2 very senior people. There’s going to be another round of layoff next week or the week after. Approx 400-500

I know there is a push to cut expenses for Q1 but I don't know whether that also means job cuts.

Why wouldn’t they have just cut in December or before bonus? it’s like every other month there is cuts.
