Micron 3x my salary. Everyone should leave

Nothing mentioned on earnings or all hands. Maybe nothing will happen after all.

He didnt say why, however he said we only have until end of next week to complete the task. Is this a sign that layoffs are coming soon?

Today I handed my resignation to my manager. I got a way better offer from Micron. My manager told me if there was anything he could do to have me staying but I don't think they can 2X my salary. Best wishes everyone, there is greener grass out... — read more 

Why everyone (the execs that took all the stock RSU's) really wants this tu-d to merge with Kioxia. Elliott projects $100 stock by end of 2023. I'll believe it when I see it. I just don't trust DG and his apple dumpling gang to do anything right... — read more 

A wd/kioxia merge won't happen for many reasons as you know. And even if it was to happen, two turkeys won't make an Eagle.

I asked around and there are no info when will we get back 401k match, bonus and RSU. Anybody knows? It is weird that even that company I saving the money of all those 3 items, we gave lower guidance for next quarter. Not sure if that means that at... — read more 

The only reason I'm still here is that my job search is going slower than expected. I've received several offers but they came with lower pay, and I refuse to work for less than I'm worth. As soon as the right opportunity appears I'll be out of here... — read more

What is going on?

Is that a good thing or bad thing?

Grab your popcorn while watching earnings report

I'm betting you that the first thing the CEO will announce later today after presenting disastrous results will be more layoffs. That's about the only way he can placate investors right then and there - with plans for major cost cuts, or in other... — read more 

Will we beat or miss earnings?

I don't know if that's supposed to make us feel at ease, but for me the exact opposite is true. When the manager behaves as if everything is in the best order, I start to worry even more because we all know that it is not. Who still has faith in... — read more 

Just wondering

I hate the wait and not knowing what's coming. I don't care how bad it's going to get, I just want it to be over. My mental health can't take much more of 24/7 stressing and worrying over things I can't change. Even learning that I'm about to be cut... — read more 

How important will the age be when considering who to keep and who to let go after the merger? Every layoff so far at WD has seen a disproportionately high number of older employees affected. That has me nervous as we get closer and closer to the... — read more 

If we are merging with kioxia, how is that I don't hear anything about HD unit spun off. Can we do in 2 -4 weeks time frame?

My manager said he doesn't know

No matter what you hear, expect the merger to be painful for the employees of both companies. There will always be redundant roles and mandatory cost cuts that will result in major layoffs. Both companies will suffer for it, that’s for sure. Make... — read more

Any guesses? I hope to receive a new offer soon.

Do you all think DG and friends get golden parachutes and everyone is left holding the empty bag?

I’m in MPS (they call it MTS now), really don’t see any necessity to keep this dept after merge with KIOXIA

Any idea how many ppl will be affected by the merge? Shall I assume that before the merge, HD organization would separate? I work in client division but we deal with HD and SSD and Cloud Applications . Wonder where we will go.

Hundreds of employees had been cut through the last few rounds and benefits not been restored. Still not good enough? Are we continuing the RIF?

Aftet 2 months of the "accelerated merger talks" in the news. Is no further news bad news or good news? Who need the merge more urgently, kioxia, wd or both?

Considering the general atmosphere here, it's strange that more people aren't leaving. How many of your colleagues have left recently?

Why risk being laid off? I don't think that risk is worth it for many of us here.

Outsourcing is not something new, but post-COVID companies realize that if some US employees could do their job remotely, those jobs could be shipped to overseas. I've worked with other similar companies, and while they didn't say it out loud, but... — read more 

It has been 45 days since those accelerated merge talks were announced. So far nothing happened. Is the merge not happening?
