Thread regarding Citrix Systems Inc. layoffs

Very strange promotions at Citrix right now

There are the strangest promotions and reassignment of people in the company right now. People that have no backgrounds for their new jobs are being placed in format reqs while people that have little skills or experience are being promoted . The higher ups are not responding to any emails and are hunkered down in their offices or secretive meeting places. The only rationale is VPs are protecting their favorites to keep them sheltered from the next layoff. CTX is looking like office space .

Maybe it's best to face the inevitable, accept the layoff and not worry about this job or company anymore. Too bad this will happen, it was good while it lasted.

Noticed the same thing, @Pv9DzeF-ecn. Not sure what's going on, but I know it's not good for us employees in any way.

There has been a lot of strange promotions. I heard of an Admin being promoted to a senior role, with not much experience or qualification. I call this "saving." Usually when this happens it's someone protecting someone.

Nothing new about it, been happening for years. Happened during the the first layoffs after the ATL location came on line.

The "key XD architect" is actually pretty legit and NS is quite lucky to have him on their side.

I remember that, move people around to save the ones they want to keep

Happened last time when one of the key XD architects moved to the NS group a few days before cuts were announced
