New hires. New changes. What are your thoughts?
Oracle SEC Lawsuit for fraud coming?
What’s the chance LE, Safra Catz, Clay and Mike might be named eventually in a SEC lawsuit for fraud and materially falsifying information to investors over its debt capacity? I think it’s pretty likely. Especially if they sell Cerner.
Have WFR started yet?
If so, what groups have been hit so far?
Ai Metrics?
Someone on here said something about usage of ai is going to be a performance metric for 2026 for everyone. Like how does this work? Anyone know yet? I did hear someone on my team today mention this but doesn’t know details.
Townhall tomorrow
Who’s ready for the Townhall? Anyone planning on posting a very legit, accountability question we all can thumbs up so it gets answered?
Anyone regret not raising your hand to AEOI?
Please tell me there will be another opportunity in the near future.

Thoughts?
Layoffs in HOMELENDING
There hasn’t been layoffs in Home Lending for quite a few years! Does anyone know if there will be this month?
Merit increase
Anyone else above midpoint got 0%?
Greenspoint assigned parking
Remember how at GP long time employees had assigned parking spots? VPs even had a separate section on the ground floor. Then when we moved to EMHC it was announced that there would be no assigned parking for anyone even VPs. It sure wasn’t long before VPs once again had their own assigned spots but employees were never given assigned spots again.
Ford continue hires Visas
Looks like a hiring spree with all purchase and B2B with visas. When will ford start hiring locals ? Can this ever stop?
Help USA!

After one year of Cargill 2030, what is the grade for Brian and the ET? Who on the ET is delivering above or below expectations?
Why they are doing layoffs instead of eliminating H1b full time and external contractors?
Impacted employee. Easily they can eliminate H1b full timer and contract employees instead of doing this layoffs. How can they file H1b and green card when layoffs are happening ?
“Chief Administrative Officer” role at the bank
What does a CAO do? What does your BL’s CAO do? What are their responsibilities and are they really needed at the bank? I feel like it’s another inflated title for someone without a real role. What am I missing?
March 2026 Layoff rumor
Does it have any legs?
Also heard that they are looking for volunteers. Bit confused.
If I express interest, then I am exposing my intent to the management which can easily put me in a PIP or find other reasons and kick me out.
If I keep quiet also it may happen but then I missed my chance of volunteering (and may be saving someone who needs the job). I am done with this org and have something else. But I do not want to lose my one-year of potential severance. That is a lot to leave it on the table
Any insight?
Buy Outs?
Is there any truth to the rumors of “voluntary” layoffs? With the recent decimation of market cap, that would be no surprise.
Did MicroFocus ruin OpenText or did OpenText ruin MicroFocus?
Personally, I think MicroFocus was already ruined financially before the acquisition, while OpenText has suffered taking on massive debt and legacy baggage that has stalled any momentum we had previously with Cloud and Cybersecurity.
For the few who are still content, why?
I am just trying to understand what positivity anyone still has towards their job or this company after the constant hits to morale.
New to the bench
DXC lost the account I was on (in North America (being deliberately vague)) and now I'm on the bench after many years on this account. I've been told they will look for a new placement but I'm not sure how long that will take and if they will find one. How long can I be expected to be in this situation? They are not telling me much. What usually happens from here? Is there anything I can be doing (aside from training, etc). Thanks!
Swoosh Account Login Question
Hi, I am not at Nike anymore but should have lifetime Swoosh benefits. Is there any way to get back into my account? I did not update my email from nike.com to personal email before I left. Has anyone been able to do that AFTER they exited? Thank you!

How about chopping one to create efficciencies
Asked a question on Exxon’s Layoff page
I posted a question on Exxon’s thread asking for input on their forced ranking that we’re adopting. I think I frightened them all into hiding. 50 some views and crickets but their side has so much more traffic than ours. that’s an indication of the culture Wael has adopted. Command, Control, Destroy, then retire with a golden parachute. I’m feeling closer to peers of other companies than I am to supporting our LT. Fu-k Wael. Fu-k anyone above a JG1.
Just copying my comment from a buried thread into its own thread to draw attention. I think we should all be aware Wael wants Exxon culture. I work with 3 former Exxon people and they all have shockingly similar stories despite working across the US. Dark days are coming.
Will they wrap up the layoffs by the weekend?
Judging by reports, even more remote workers were let go today. I'm so sorry for what we're going through, and especially for those already impacted.
What's up with FTEs having to log timesheets?
Is anyone else required to log their timesheets starting Monday? Or is it just heritage Enterprise Technology/EDO? And does anybody know the reason behind the request?
ABU sale
If the ABU is sold off, how many jobs will go to sweeten the deal? Does anyone else think they must be considering it.
AAPS
Any word on AAPS? Prepay?
No new H1B, new offices in Mumbai, Pune and Bangalore - what comes next?
Jobs relocating back to India with cheap labor and low quality.
Cisco doesn’t want to spend $100K for each new H1B.
With AI and tools, most technical and TAC jobs become redundant.
Cisco to layoff 20,000 folks in USA for expenses to open new offices overseas.
Question to our CEO
I reviewed some quarterly meetings with the ELT and one important question was asked to the CEO.
You have mentioned we have the people to win and emphasize we are a people-first culture.
So, why is cutting people first a yearly action plan for long-term growth and profitability?
After five years of people first cuts, might it be time to rethink this strategy. How about people-second?
Does anyone know if this person was made an example of?
Juniper W2 contact
