#layoffs

When a company keeps cutting people instead of fixing problems, it's a crystal clear sign they're failing. That's where this place is headed.

I can't emphasize enough the importance of documenting everything. I was a top performer and they still tried to push me out without severance. Paperwork saved me. So make sure to keep records of everything. Emails, feedback, literally everything you can think of.

I'm not saying we should accept how things are at Walmart, but I've been looking around and I can't find any retailer that actually treats its employees well. Even the ones that are performing better financially are just as bad to their people. It seems like the only way to get out of this is to leave retail entirely. Otherwise you're just moving from one bad situation to another.

I mean, since getting as many applications seems to be the only goal these days why not branch out and ask all over the place? Who cares about actually selling stuff, right? Let's get those applications and who gives a damn about our actual jobs. Who cares about selling. /s This place is a fu--ing mess.

How much trouble am I in? Were there any cuts planned for today?

Microsoft is preparing for another round of layoffs in July 2026. The company expects to cut 5,000 to 5,700 jobs globally. These reductions will primarily affect sales, consulting, and the Xbox division. The move aligns with the new fiscal year and a strategic shift towards AI. This follows previous large workforce reductions in 2025.

Were there any layoffs in operations/configs? Are they even ever going to hire on new contractors? I've known contractors that have been here for 2-3 years.....

End of July for Halo people no places to go internally

People seem more enraged, more passionate about cuts and mistakes that are being made. More critical of leaders. Loyalty has completely evaporated. It feels different. What do you think?

If a layoff’s coming, why wait? Find better opportunities and move on. Just how things are trending lat

Okay two questions. How many people have been laid off thus far? I feel like we’re all in the dark. Second, what happened to the Reddit page? Did people get found out or something? Just curious why we all never are on there and it only seems to be people asking for references.

You are being let go so that they can loop back around with the same job openings at much much lower pay with the reasoning that AI does the bulk of the decision making.
The 6 figure tech job will very soon be a thing of the past. This plan is unfolding right before your eyes now. Don’t let the lie you tell yourself of “maybe not me” manifest into a false sense of security. Your days a literally numbered on the calendar. Good luck everyone.

Why is Law experiencing another round of layoffs in 2026 after a previous round in 2025? Why do our leaders continue to demoralize?

So Travis was shown the door this week - and rightly so - but when are we ever going to clean up the rest of his management downline? They are every bit as incompetent and inexperienced as he was. You all know the names.

We continue to fall further and further behind in PowerFlex, PowerMax, PowerScale, and PowerStore. There's just little to no innovation or development velocity with any of these groups.

What there is, however, is a lot of excuses, missed deadlines, missed deliverables, and quality control issues. That's a management problem (lack thereof) that needs to be addressed immediately. How long you going to sit on your thumb JC?

Does Centene payout sick time and PTO when you resign, Or just the PTO? I don’t think I’m going to wait on the VSP or see if I’m impacted by the layouts.

Around 4k employees have to go, the last day is October 12.

New Jersey school districts face severe budget crises. Soaring healthcare costs are driving these financial difficulties. Many districts have responded with layoffs and program cuts.

A recent report connects artificial intelligence to widespread job losses. It indicates nearly 200,000 layoffs have occurred since 2023. Many Americans feel uncertain about AI's rapid development. Younger workers are especially concerned about their future jobs. Lawmakers remain divided on regulating AI versus promoting innovation.

General Motors laid off over 1,000 workers at its Detroit Factory ZERO. The company then introduced 50 AI-powered collaborative robots at the same plant. GM stated the layoffs were temporary and unrelated to the new machines. UAW leaders expressed outrage, believing automation is displacing human labor. The union also faces internal controversies and leadership disputes.

Nothing would surprise me anymore. I wouldn't put it past this leadership.

I'm more stressed than I've ever been. I don't know if we'll ever get to a point where we can just focus on our work again and not have to think about layoffs every two weeks.

I've been thinking lately about how I feel about the possibility of layoffs, and I realized something that surprised me. I'm not scared anymore. In fact, part of me is actually kind of hoping it happens. I genuinely like what I do, but Honeywell has gone out of its way to make everything harder, more complicated, and less satisfying. If getting laid off is what it takes to get out of here, I think I'd actually feel relieved. What does that say about a place that some of its employees feel that way?

This posting was on reddit on July 2 in the r/tmobile channel

"My DM gathered all of us for a meeting today at 4 PM and gave us 60 day notice, apparently many stores are getting notice today as well and by next month many more stores are going to get notice, if you are not in a top 100 or experience you are unfortunately next on the chopping block, good luck to all of you in future endeavors."

Came to CDW from elite enterprise tech sales (Oracle, Gartner, Dell, AT&T) thinking the partner side would be a great pivot. It is easily the worst, most disorganized company I’ve ever seen. Complete political mess, overworked staff, underpaid talent, and zero actual care for the client.

They wanted my C-level global accounts, but every time I opened a door, CDW failed to execute. I was constantly apologizing to clients, trying to force a transactional CDW box-checker brand into spaces handled by Accenture, Deloitte, and Wipro. The capability just isn't there.

Also, I started seeing some of our greatest talent walk out the door. One office had 7 Client Executives walk out the door in one day!

They ended up cutting me and keeping an inside AM who was just promoted to CE. Good luck maintaining an executive position in these accounts! (Been with CDW for 10 years as an inside AM)

My manager was new to corporate accounts and you could hear him turning the pages to his “How to be a CDW Manager binder”… LOL He wanted to surround himself with reps that don’t intimidate him.

Getting released from this place is the first time I’ve been able to breathe in months. The relief is real. If you have a solid enterprise background, don't waste your time or risk your reputation here.

There are rumors that many PMs and analyst will be affected in July. Hope for the best.

Could someone please explain why we are laying off talent reservoir and geos in Australia and UK when we are going to need them to help us evaluate new prospects with the horizon challenge when we are struggling to recruit in the US. Is India the solution; he-l no

I actually believed the “nike family” thing. treated coworkers like friend not just people i clocked in with..that’s on me for being naive i guess but the people who still have jobs there? spineless. i sat next to these people for years covered for them more times than i can count. the second i got laid off i became invisible. No “hey that su-ks.” just silence, one text is all it would have taken

During my last few weeks all anyone wanted was KT. drain everything useful out of me then go quiet the moment h i’m not needed anymore. Tried reaching out for referrals after people i’d helped before. suddenly everyone’s “already used up their referrals.” people still there just saw my messages on linkedin and said nothing not even a polite no

Funny how the ones who actually had a soul already left that company on their own. the ones still sitting in those seats are just the ones who don’t mind stepping over people to stay comfortable

Again not mad about the layoff i’m done pretending the people who stayed behind are good people. they’re not. they just haven’t been laid off yet..

Unemployment fears are now concentrated among educated, higher-income Americans. This marks a significant shift from historical patterns. The New York Fed's Survey of Consumer Expectations tracks this trend. Their anxiety currently outpaces actual white-collar layoff rates. Automation and post-pandemic hiring corrections contribute to this growing concern.
