Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

If this joke of a place would do an ER package, a good one, I would bet 90% would take it. Then do away with offshoring anything other than break fix. Liz and the rest of the mo--ns at the top are on a path to make csco an almost 100% AI driven company even in services. They or she doesn't say it but that is the path. It is an absolute path to failure but hey, if chucky can ram stuff through just because he's chuck liz can ram things through because of every other checkbox except competence. Neither of them can check that one.

When was the last time we had a newlt announced substantial layoff in February of any calendar year?

https://www.reuters.com/technology/cisco-lay-off-5-workforce-2024-02-14/

the post was right, we were cut around end of March and beginning of April. back in 2017. there is no anouncement due to somehow they spread the numbers across the states and each has a minimum before they need to annoucement.
eg:
CA 120 people cut
NC 100 people cut
GA 75 people..
Austin 50 people

so there is a cut around Feb or any time now, the only reason we were told we got cut later is that there is a special deal coming in around Jan of 2017 and they just need hot bodies to work..

It’s so weird that there are so many loser trolls out there. They get on this board and just want to keep posting about fictitious layoffs. Every real Cisco employee knows that these things are done on the cisco fiscal calendar. When was the last time we had a newlt announced substantial layoff in February of any calendar year? The answer never.
It’s like you just want to troll Cisco employees?! WoW way to have no life - loser!

7% - about 5,000 in February 2025

In August the goal was a $1B charge for 7% of the staff, and for the first round $200M-$300M was held back.

I haven't see any numbers here as to how many received notice in Q1FY2025 which means that knows how many they were affected by the $700M-$800M spend.

CYA when doing your Self-Reflection Talent Assessments. Show your worthiness (for what it's worth.... pun intended).

I heard it's about tree fiddy people being affected.

How do you know. Stop posting guesses

Cisco ELT just wants a new workforce, but they need to keep business continuity so they're spreading it out

eventually the headcount will be lower, workforce will be younger, cheaper and less US-based, and there will be more in-office

shrug

You mean 2nd quarter.

Not "officially" confirmed but.

Newest is larger trend, with numbers ranging from 5,000 to 10,000.

Could be combo layoffs and PIPs over several quarters.

@OP that's all of our FLM. This would be great if true

A typo.

Second quarter.

7% - about 5,000 in February 2025

The first quarter of Cisco's fiscal year 2025 ended last month.

OP posted an old AI Google reply after googling csco layoffs.
