New London Calling

I encourage you all to watch the latest episode. While they didn’t state official reduction numbers, Sarah did allude that 4/5 people laid off will be from the VSP.

For an example, if the reduction goal is 5000 individuals then approx 1000 individuals will be laid off involuntarily.

Of course it is still vague information, but hopefully it helps some of you who are worried about an equally wide-spread involuntary RIF.

July Sees Tech and Manufacturing Job Cuts

Federal data indicates a rise in planned layoffs for July, primarily affecting the technology and manufacturing sectors. These workforce reductions are attributed to increased uncertainty, the integration of AI, and a desire for greater efficiency. While the overall labor market remains stable with low unemployment, hiring has become more selective. Experts suggest these layoffs represent structural shifts rather than a broad economic decline. The trend points to a cautious hiring environment as companies adapt to evolving industry needs.

there will be no sunshine for NIKE at least until the end of March 2027

I just saw, Nike 1st quarter 2027 and I will declare that it was extremely underwhelming to say the least. There was some sign of life in running but everywhere else, it was just not easy to be enthused.

So anyone hoping to Nike turnaround, I am afraid that for at least for more than 6 months, they will not show up.

And if things will continue as is then I am afraid that some point they will be LAYOFFS.

With our leader EH proving that he is not adept for the job of turnaround, I am pretty pessimistic.

I am 47 year Nike independent dealer and I have seen all. Great time and bad times (like when Reebok came and kicked Nike's a-s) but this time, I have a distinct feeling that Nike is sinking and going to dark end.

And be a RAT!!! Jump the ship before it start sinking LOL


Is it just me, or has morale taking an even further nose dive

Referring to claims but may be other departments too. I really didn’t think it could be worse than rock bottom but here comes big blue with the excavator. My manager used to be ok but he is becoming militant and aggressive, due to those above him. A low performer on the team got fired. Threats of performance management for missing a single metric. More and more being dumped on the plate. This job has always been a toxic cesspool, but somehow it’s getting worse


Salesforce Cuts 1,000 Jobs Amid AI Focus

Salesforce has recently eliminated approximately 1,000 positions across various departments. This significant workforce reduction is reportedly driven by the company's strategic pivot towards artificial intelligence. The affected roles span marketing, product management, and communication units. This move aligns with Salesforce's increasing reliance on AI tools to enhance operational efficiency. The company has not officially detailed the specific breakdown of these job cuts.

Demotions

Wells Fargo newest tactic of getting rid of bodies is to demote people. HR demoted a significant amount of people with the rationale that the work is not important (anymore). The teams were very involved with the regulatory oversight and consent orders but apparently that's not important anymore. So beware guys. It is a bit wild considering their just taking peoples titles and officer titles away, demoting some people from salary to hourly. Even directors weren't safe from the wrath.


Texas C&S

What’s happening with UHC Texas C&S, specifically service coordinators? They aren’t laying off, but they are shrinking numbers drastically through natural attrition. After 1% across the board raises for even 4s and 5s, they immediately quit backfilling spots when people leave, resulting in low pay increases coupled with high increases in workload. Our caseloads have increased drastically and we are nowfalling behind and not meeting members needs the way we should be. Everyone is discouraged and most people are looking at leaving soon. It takes months to onboard and train new SCs to the point they can take on a full caseload, but they still haven’t hiring. It’s the members that suffer the most. Turnover has been accelerating since everyone is overworked and underpaid and many people have left. In my service area we’ve probably lost a quarter to a third of our nurses this year. At the same time we are getting emails saying the company is doing well….


Centrica Slashes Workforce Amid Digital Shift

Centrica is reducing its workforce by 1,300 employees over two years as part of a digital transformation.

While unions express concern about AI replacing jobs, Centrica's CEO states that changing customer preferences are the main driver. The company plans to increase roles focused on digital services while scaling back phone-based positions. This announcement coincides with increased profits in Centrica's retail division.

Leidos Cuts Indirect Roles

Leidos has issued layoff notices to 305 employees, primarily affecting indirect positions. These reductions are part of organizational changes aimed at improving efficiency and future growth. Some affected employees are expected to be reassigned to direct billable roles. This move appears to be a targeted restructuring rather than a broad workforce reduction. It reflects ongoing adjustments by government contractors to overhead costs.
