#question

I shared with my manager before about what our site knows about the displacement timeline (month) and now Manager keeps asking me for displacement updates (asking if we will we get a working or non-working notice). Shouldn't managers know that!? AWKWARD and pathetic.

Curious as to what broad areas are sting most layoffs. Like are there areas that aren’t getting hit at all or areas that are basically being gutted? (I don’t work there, but have many friends who do)

SM said there have been contract freezes and lack of work? How is it for applicants?

Does anyone with access to the layoff calendar know when the next round of layoffs is happening?

First of all, why? Second, how do you get through the day?

“What really matters is that companies that don’t continue to experiment – companies that don’t embrace failure – they eventually get into a desperate position, where the only thing they can do is make a ‘Hail Mary’ bet at the very end of their corporate existence. I don’t believe in bet-the-company bets.”

Seems like Infinity is the Hail Mary. They of course decided to end of life their entire current revenue stream in 5 years to hopefully “force” customers to move to Infinity. I guess MBAs will study this decision in the future. I wonder what they will learn?

Were they impacted by the layoffs? I thought they were doing well according to the quarterly update.

So what's going on at the holiday meeting? Any word?

Especially those who simply can’t commute. I’ve been hearing all kinds of rumors, but nothing that sounds completely credible.

Do we get any prorated bonus if we leave in the middle of the year?

I am hoping for another layoff so I can get the he'll out of this place. Who else is hoping that?

Why is it so hard to let us know in advance, instead of leaving us stressed out for an entire week? Well, more stressed than usual.

ISPs, Demotions still happening today?

Either via email or snail mail, confirming that you've been laid off? Or was the verbal notification during the 1 on 1 the only one you got so far?

San Ramon, less or more jobs than you expected?

But when are they going to start making better apparel?!

So much space in Lulu/Vuori/Fabletics zone but Nike continues to make awful fitting and feeling clothes.

Earth to design team, how about some fitted clothing, better materials, etc. 25.7 was a nice attempt but not everyone wants baggy.

The market is there and consumer has proven time and time again they will pay for it. Not everyone is an oversized couch potato. Can’t even get a golf polo that isn’t “standard” fit aka baggy fit AND can only be tucked in without looking ridiculous. Every weekend I watch golf and poor Scottie looks like a sale rack at Kohls. How about shorts? Running shorts are great, golf shorts? Baggy and long. Joggers? Only in sweats. Golf joggers are a joke. Who are the models shaping these designs/sizing? Want opportunity, look at apparel.

Oh yeah, global tech bad blah blah layoffs blah blah MD devil blah blah

Like seriously, what does this guy even do that brings revenue for the company?

Does his salary justify what he does?

Absolutely not

Any info on the September layoffs?

Anyone else on severance and knows how to successfully update your direct deposit accounts without calling? Yes, I’ve looked through the paperwork and can’t locate this option on the abbreviated version of teamworks. Thanks!

are they tracking vpn 8hrs in office? Do they have that much ability to track? It was mentioned they will caught the coffee badging people on weekly basis.

If some teammates have already received their notification, can the rest of us consider ourselves safe?

Didn’t take long for the toxicity, dysfunction, and chaos. Is BFS ITLT a lame duck?

I wonder how many people have clicked the button so far today!

Oracle has unlimited vacation policy on manager discretion. But I noticed managers ensure employee doesn’t take vacations often beyond 2-3 weeks per year. So what happens to those unused vacations on your layoff? Is it wise to take vacations before expected announcements?

Has there been anything new?

Like many or most of us, my group continues to see layoffs. But I have seen no one be fired even though I think they could easily make a case for some of them.

Is this the norm in your group as well?

Any thoughts on Magellan Health getting rid of all Health plans? I heard they will be getting more Public Sector Accounts. How does Magellan Health do layoffs?

Ive read the post here and they are damning. Makes me fear for my career.

In spite of the press the cypress finds aren’t big enough to overcome the technical challenges and be economic. Tell me how I am wrong.

Theoretically what would happen if someone started to work Fridays at home to start and then Monday/Fridays after some time

Intel's Whitepaper process (documented manufacturing change), composed strategic data and facts.

Question - why not used to select CEO(s)?

What's the future of these scrummy people?

Observed signs of doubt and prevarication in Vimal’s eyes while answering questions or listening other leader’s responses. Do you feel he is honest or hides well to get his golden parachute?

Any update on the remaining 200+ employees at the West End Center?

I have heard this date mentioned, are there layoffs on that date ?
