Sales Meat Grinder
Oracle is not, nor has ever been, known for being a warm & fuzzy work enviro. It's a well known meat grinder. At least in sales it is. Everyone knows this is what the oracle brand is about. You produce or you're out. Plain & simple. Most, if not all... — read more

SC is a Trump enabler - shame on her!
Unofficial official layoff report FY17
So absent announcement from oracle it looks like the layoffs were as follows: (1) Q1&2: 5,000 people, (2) Q3&4: 3,800 people, (3) June 1: 2,500 people. This bring the total for the year to almost 12,000
do not whine too much
Unhappy people should be proactive and leave at the earliest opportunity, and not stay and whine before their doomsday at Oracle arrives.
Oracle increased it's head count from May 31, 2017 to June 4, 2017.
Hum...We think we have a bunch of trolls from SalesForce slumming around. Head count increased by about 700... fake rumors people....
Oracle - How do they select the people that get laid off ??

sorry to those who got affected this week but just wanted to point out that the prediction of 10-20K was WAAAAYYYY off base and overblown and led to unnecessary ulcers and anxiety for a lot of people over the last few months. WTF YO?
No news on layoffs?
Not a single peep. what's up with that? is the layoffs fake news?

LE designed it exactly like this!..nobody give a damn to nothing but a paycheck.. no sense of pride left..wait to see CEOs jump ship soon enough..
Any news on Minneapolis office closures?
Curious as to what others are hearing? Several rumors about allowing OD reps to work from home as well as given the option to move to another hub to job loss.
Shame them. Report the Oracle layoff to Fox News. Trump watches it.......
Anyone have a good contact in media? That's the way to shame them. Trump watches Fox News
6/1 layoff total
Well, no info from Oracle, of course, my guess is that we're talking about 2,500 people being laid off on 6/1. Thoughts ?
Train wreck
Whiteness the destruction of a once great company; brought on by clueless, personal, greed. As Hurd the Turd tears the place apart, his girl Safra tries to cozy up with D.C. Looking for her next job. See you in the unemployment line.
Severance?
What kind of severance packages are being given?
Time to make a move.
Half of our SC team was RIFed today. I wish them all the best. I'm sure they'll do great. I had zero confidence in our leadership this past FY. Now its confirmed- they are making all the wrong decisions and will walk away with millions if Oracle... — read more

Worst lay off walk ever
