Notices of Reduction
I was told that layoffs were coming today. Anyone hearing of any?
Back To Basics
What info does anyone have regarding RIFs in the upcoming months?
GT EMEA Layoffs
Regardless of how you think about whether we should have the GT EMEA group or they’re helpful, productive, etc, etc. this isn’t about it.
Yesterday I was taking to a teammate in there, and they told me the GM sent a video where he says they’re targeting to execute the layoffs around early to mid NOVEMBER. That’s almost 8 months after everything started and ~4 months after we had ours.
Can you imagine working that long knowing there’s something coming from across the globe to hit you? How on earth you get motivated to do your job? Your counterparts already moved on, got promoted, fired, lateral moves whatever. And you’re there reading that “EMEA is in a different timeline” sentence in every comms from the company (they told me this line is basically an internal joke over there).
Some people are guessing what’s gonna happen but others already know because they lost their counterparts on other goes, so the writing is in the wall.
I do have a lot of reservations about the EMEA team, but damn, Nike isn’t helping the cause here. Dragging for that long? Unfair is the nicest word I can think of.
Last quarter RIF
Hope all ready for the upcoming October-December RIF.
Total Rewards Change
Any rumours on what this will entail? They're saying it's not a cost saving exercise, which I highly doubt.
Clients dropping
Layoffs are not the only problem as the clients are having a bad experience with this company. Rumors are some services are going to be dropped
APLA rumors
Are they true and should I be worried if I work in APLA?
WILL CS be ok?
Thanks
What's the deal with F RTO popping up on the screens?
One had a picture of JF. All screens on DDL are off. Drop deets of you have em
Wooten Building Shutting Down?
Rumors are swirling they are shutting down the building on Wooten in Wilson, NC and moving them elsewhere. Is this true? No one is hardly in the building anymore. Either laid off or WFH.
Janitors laid off too?
Anyone else who has been required to come in lately notice how nasty the work spaces have gotten? In building 2 the break room is filled with dishes covered in days old food and the fridge smells like mold.
Desks are all strewn with trash and none of the computer peripherals work.
Bathroom smells like a babies diaper.
My college dorm was cleaner than this, anyone have any idea if they laid off the cleaning staff too?
What's up with Singapore?
There was supposed to be some sort of big meeting or announcement 10:00 a.m. the other day. What is the news from that?
Layoffs?
This is a layoff site after all. Any insight if there will be any the rest of 2025? Will the government shut down have any effect?
Doom and gloom at JRC.
I love how fake the PGL's are these days. They look at you with a fake blank look on their faces knowing what is about to happen. Everyday when I arrive at work, I have the feeling that it is my last day. Someone in security let out that they have an assignment in a couple weeks at the JRC. Gee, what could that be. Why are layoffs so taboo, what not prepare the employees now, so they can look for a job. Instead of dumping them on the spot without notice.
My challenge to the leadership at JRC, stop hiding behind your tailored suits. Stop giving us your fake smile and hand shake. Go to your employees within your group and tell them what's to come.
One user predicted... LOL
LOL:
One user in a thread on thelayoff.com predicted how the company’s assets would be shifted around. His first prediction was that Calgary Quarry Park HQ would be sold to Brookfield.

2025 layoffs
Any inside information on what jobs are being eliminated? What states are being affected?
Heard anything?
Clearly it’s the month to cut. Heard anything about the looming layoffs?
COP buying Civitas?
Seeing a lot of Permian leadership in SUVs around Civitas field. Will this be a good purchase?
Will Exxon purchase Civitas?
Looks like one less C producer to be sold in the Permian basin. Exxon would benefit from the uplift and diversity of locations.
Chevron buying Civitas?
Will a purchase make sense? Chevron is seeing some issues in the Permian basin. This purchase would uplift production quickly and reduce the need for drilling.
Apache buying Civitas?
JC and crew on a reconnaissance mission spotted in black SUVs around Civitas field. Will the be a good acquisition for APA? What are the Pros and Cons?
Spec Chem going down
Something big is going down in Spec Chem. Either a sell off or something disruptive. NDAs are being issued and signed. Rumor is Borger is going to be sold off.
Layoffs in Nov?
I heard a rumor of layoffs in Nov. Any credibility to the rumors this time or just speculation based on past events?
NA Deal Desk layoffs
Colleagues in deal desk being notified of termination today. Whole teams wiped out. San Antonio office.

Birdies be chirppin'
Heads Up, another round of layoffs October 1
Just finished my layoff meet, good luck all.
Severance being capped?
There is a rumor floating around from multiple sources that the bank is looking to cap severance at couple of weeks. Has anybody heard anything about this?
Bets on healthcare premium increase…
How much are they going to gouge us for? Rumor has it costs are astronomical this year… aging workforce and all. I’m guessing a 50% increase in premiums and a cut to their HSA contributions.
What do you think?
First Walgreens, now Target is also being looked at for purchase by Private Equity Firms!!!
Walgreens was just purchased by Sycamore. I just read a news article that says Target is also being looked at by private equity firms as well! Are all retail stores pretty much doomed at this point. Wow.
Factors influencing the buyout speculation:
Potential for an attractive acquisition price: Target's stock has been trading near a six-year low, which could make it an attractive and affordable target for a private equity firm.
Change in CEO: The recent announcement that CEO Brian Cornell would be replaced by company insider Michael Fiddelke is thought to have added to the speculation.
Mixed financial results: Despite reporting "better-than-feared" second-quarter earnings, the company's recent results failed to produce a sufficient recovery in its share price.
Previous buyout rumors: News outlets reported on buyout speculation back in late 2024, following disappointing earnings results.
Mini-tender offer: In September 2025, Target received an unsolicited mini-tender offer from TRC Capital Corp., though this offer was for a small portion of the company and not a full buyout.
Any real WFR news?
Hearing rumblings about weekly WFRs underway, any numbers or specific depts?
