Notifying mangers yet to receive training invite(usually one week before), it’s coming, but purely based on base + RSU and low performers. Good luck to everyone!

I can see them literally begging for help in the tickets but the Support teams just don't seem to care. I am not sure what the right thing to do is

We really need to address Oracles abuse of H1B. They lay off Americans and then hire more H1Bs at the same time. There should be a requirement for capped H1Bs to have to interview for the job with a group of qualified Americans yearly. This way we... — read more

If this does not happen, reach out to your representative

For your sanity, just assume every department will see cuts. You can either wait and see or take control and start looking now. I know that sounds harsh, but it's the reality.

Executives are gathering in RWS for final lists and next steps. I know there is a group meeting on product management initiatives (Netsuite). So come next Monday it’s happening

We heard that Focal is happening in September. Anyone heard anything, or do you think they’ll announce it after another round of layoffs? 😅

Oracle has decided to down rank everyone in the reviews, they're pushing aggressive layoffs, demanding free overtime. At this point what do you have to risk by coordinating a work stoppage? They're going to do layoffs anyway. No point in trying to... — read more

If there are rumors that layoffs may happen on September 2nd, they may happen that day, but the timing could also be different, such as August 31st or September 1st. We saw a similar situation last year. Unfortunately, there are some things we simply... — read more 

31st August is the day , looks like and no email like last round , 1x1 with skip or manager

How understaffed is your team due to recent cut. Nobody on my team is doing under 50hr/wk. This is not sustainable.

In full force layoffs are back on. Starting with the people who work the hardest to be loyal to their job

The new rule prevents new h1b to enter US. So the only best bet is holding existing H1b's.

This guessing game is getting tiring.

Didn’t get an email today. Assuming no one else has either

From what I can remember, layoffs almost always start on Tuesday, so I'm going to assume it's going to be the same this time. I don't buy this "layoffs are canceled" talk, we all know it's going to happen.

So apparently the August layoffs are completely canceled again. At this point, does anyone actually know what’s going on at Oracle? For weeks we’ve been hearing about another major round of cuts coming in August, managers supposedly making lists... — read more

The wait is worse than knowing. At least I'd be able to start planning my next move. But no, we have to wait another day or who knows however long.

Coming from management line - RIFs are confirmed and they will to be double digits. Discussions are still in progress.

Are you allowed to take your vacation? My manager is not allowing me to Does this mean he is planning something?

I’ve heard from M4 they plan to layoff a dozen engineers, 2-3 project managers, 1-2 managers, sales and QA. This in addition to reducing other types of resources already announced. IDC, EU and NA

This is what happening.

I've been thinking about what happens if I get the call. Do I start sending applications the next day? Or do I take some time, a couple of weeks or a month, to reset before diving back in? I've seen people do both, but I'm not sure which is right.

Usually layoffs happen between Tuesday and Thursday (I have no idea why those days seem to be so layoff-friendly). What are the chances this begins on Monday?
