Wasn't there talk about more layoffs in September?

I have a reliable source who states it isn’t a 1:1 fire Us employee and hire a GCC employee equation so a US based employee layoff is not dependent on the hiring of someone else

That being said .. there will be layoffs going on until basically all US associates are gone

I think a good question to ask is "how is the hiring in India/Mexico/Poland/NameYourCheapCountry going" because they may not be getting as cheap a workforce as they initially thought!

On the Nielsen's careers site it looks like posted positions are stale, like no "senior engineer" will take that job (only god knows how much they are offering).

Ultimately this is what is going to define when the rest of the US is going to be fired, they just haven't found your replacement.

The knowledge transfer situation is an absolute joke. There's entirely too much to teach and not enough time. Clients are angry and the work isn't even fully transferred over yet. I'd be very surprised if some large accounts aren't lost because of this.

Yes the next wave should be in the first couple weeks of September from what I have figured out.
Has anyone seen the “very demure very thoughtful” LinkedIn post by Nielsen? What out of touch social media person made that?
“See how you have partnered with a consultancy company well known for committing atrocities, and fired around 40% of your workers on short notice with barely any severance to replace them with under payed workers? NOT very demure”
