Big changes in Jan 2026?
I’ve heard from four different people that something big is supposed to happen in January 2026, but nobody would give me details. I’m curious what they might be talking about. Any guesses?
AIP
Anyone have any real insight on what AIP will be? Reposting this. Those without real information need not respond as most of what I’ve seen on this site is total bs. Anyone have more than their opinion that they try to pass off as fact?
Layoffs in IT&V
Does anyone have any insight on headcount reduction coming to Independent Testing & Validation? I’m new to this LOB and don’t have any background knowledge on the inner politics. Thanks.
Provider Network/Client Mgmt/Care Transitions
Does anyone actually know what the life expectancy is for Provider Network/Client Management/Care Transitions roles? Mergers, no direction and messy mix of job roles and responsibilities makes it feel pretty clear at least one, if not all departments/employees will be let go. Does anyone have any actual insights to this?
January reorg
Does anyone have any insight on the reorganization that will be in January?

I will give some insight into the process
There’s a lot of unfounded rumors on here. And although I understand, I might not be privy to all the information - I also am not a fool and I’m aware of this process.
I’ve seen SVP’s in some groups where I’m like. How did this person cobble together brain cells to get out of bed in the morning. One particular gentleman will drop nuggets of wisdom that are more like tu-ds. Using physics analogies, but they’re all incorrect while I’m sitting here with a physics background. Then there are other senior directors that I found out their pay is somewhere about the 300 K band on just base and they’re the biggest waste of air. Then there are plenty of EVP’s there are nothing more than leeches.
Personally, I have not been reached out to you to give a list of employees. However from experience and from others this is how you would do it. First pass all the rank 5 and 4 are safe (we will come back to this). You start in the bucket 2 and 1. If you’re a 3 it’s not about performance as the vast majority is this bucket, it’s how like-able are you to work with and do you make your managers life easy. I know that’s unfair as some managers have vendettas against directs but alas tis’ corporate. Then after if you need more you go to the 5 and 4 ranks. Some groups will give out 5’s like candy and if everyone is a five, then no one is a five. So expect that group have a second review and both pay and politics come into view. At the end you want a lean team of high performers in the 4 & 5 bucket and then the top 70% of the 3’s. If this is giving tech company vibes - don’t be surprised if stack ranking becomes the norm for regularly oustings. The culture will get ugly very quickly.
The only positive is if Verizon gets leaner and we retain top talent then we can promote more easily. But given how shortsighted the geriatric committee is, I wouldn’t be surprised if we also blow this benefit. Cheers all

And I’m seeing some solid information sharing... but also simultaneous social unraveling within the same space.
Oh man, what a time to be alive.

What is the goal besides layoffs? Any insights?
Pam
Does anyone have any insight to what the email Pam sent out to the Americas and Danbury groups is trying to convey?
China closure, why?
There was no clear messaging as to the “why” of the China office closure. Anyone have insight? Clearly it’s not to bring jobs to back US as replacement hiring has been happening Glasgow since summer.
I wonder if SAS is chasing federal projects that have stated or implied requirements that development not occur there?
No issue with journalists mu---ring Saudis however. #saslife
Just got RIF'd
What other departments got hit? Seems like this is going to be another big one. That was a fun meeting, love to hear what others are being told.
Another layoff coming?
Not trying to stir it up but someone outside of Chevron was told by a Chevron insider that there’s another layoff coming soon. Anyone else heard the same?
CTV CTB GSP
Is anyone hearing insights on “flattening” the redundant CTB CTV and GSP roles in particular WH (western hemisphere). Seems like other areas are flattening and going back to pre-merch like transformations. Others have said that Bills pyramid will not be touched but that doesn’t seem plausible
Will the top customer save Avaya
Ok so those old long time customers that keep the lights on, any insight on if we are loosing any of them? All I see is Infinity this and MCP but are the old big customers really interested? Love to hear any insights as it will make my decision on jumping easier.
