Honestly who needs the L5s and L4s when all they ever do is kiss a-- and wait for their L3 to hold their fat hands

My boss let slip that in 'two weeks we'll see" when I asked him about July layoffs that would be the 12th. He also got antsy when I told him I was traveling that week as they don't like laying you off if your on the road..... guess the handwriting is... — read more

All one has to do is look at the earnings. I guess many are afraid to venture out and get another job

EqualLogic still making money, SC Compellent s---s and no layoffs in Hopkinton until end of October. Enjoy your summer.

Project managers and network engineers have apparently already started getting chopped. HR people were chopped a little while back. The scuttlebutt is the entire Seattle office is going to be shuttered.

Massive layoffs starting at Dell EMC Isilon in Seattle. Condolences to the s---ers who actually believed Michael Dell that he wasn't going to do that.

How common is QA used as a punching bag? Can QA be held responsible for the project delays??? Is it a healthy practice to have a tame QA Manager (aka rubber_stamp) report into SW Engineering Development Director (aka nut_cracker)? Share….your story... — read more 

I realized today that my manager has bunch of meetings titled "Private Meeting" this week and most of them are in 171 South street. It's quite unusual because he rarely has meetings outside of 228. I think higher ups are asking for names to roll... — read more

Storage is dead - 3 years ago a VMAX was 11 bays wide - now it only takes 1/2 a bay for same storage capacity - wait a few more years and it will be in a shoe box or on a memory board in the server

It is the season as they say.
