Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

Mother of all layoffs will take place in April and May

Up to 27% of FTE and contractors will be cut over a 3 month period.. CSCO wants to slim down. All L2 mgrs and their directors have been instructed to provide an excel spreadsheet of individuals to be cut. Some teams will be completely obliterated.

If your mgr or dir stops saying hi to you, that's a tell tale sign that you are on the list. Some of the planning will take place offsite to avoid tipping off the "victims".

A lot of failed guys from Avaya joined BXB center and made their puppets in far east Bangalore. They have all fancy titles of VP, Director, Sr. Manager, blah, blah... and lead by showing other down. They have only burned cash in the past by spending on forming scrum master organization, etc, who are merely sitting and preparing excels.

These guys including the product managers have a got a lot of bonus, travel throughout and have the full safety of their jobs on the cost of others.

What about L2 Managers and Directors list ? They consider themselves the company itself. None have been removed anytime.

Only people like comical Ali who teaches Fibonacci series will be left here. Putting stickies on their mouth and wasting stationary.

Cisco spends a lot on duplicate work. There is a separate Scrum Master Organization that do not do any technical work, but duplicate the work of manager. No other company spends on such a waste. These Masters have lot of free time to do gossips about the employees. The leaders (managers, Sr. manager, Director) will never be layed-off and can easily change their title to survive. Sad state of company.

Once we get to 100% recurring revenue, the rest of us will not be needed.

Assume this is in-between the budget re-evaluations about the pay increases? Or no?
