Topics regarding layoffs at Oracle Corp.

Looking forward to better opportunities

Losing a job here is stressful, but there’s a lot out there waiting. Plenty of people have been through layoffs and landed somewhere much better. It might take some effort, but there’s no reason to doubt any of us will find a place that actually... — read more 

This could have been handled so much better

If they cared about employees at all. But they don't give a damn whether we're stressing, or can't sleep, or have to take meds for high blood pressure. They simply don't give a damn about us. The fact that we still know so little about what's... — read more 

Did they put any thought into the layoff selections?

There doesn’t seem to have been any strategic assessment of ongoing projects or team structures. My team is literally falling apart, and it's only going to get worse. We've lost people who were critical to anything beyond routine backend tasks... — read more 


If there's no stability anymore, what's the point of staying at Oracle?

This is the demonstration that an employee working for a conglomerate like this count less than nothing, it’s just a record in a database, no matter is performance, pretty sad and cold given the myriad of talented people. I hope someone at top level... — read more 


Should I retire?

Got laid off last week, never seen one this bad, but I and many talented co-workers got swept up in this mess. Oracle really sc--wed up imo. It's really soured me on the tech industry. I'm in my early 50's, ~$4 million net worth, wondering if I... — read more 


Not yet done in the US

More to come for sure. Managers have been told to cut costs everywhere. For teams where they cannot cut enough, people will be cut to lower expenses. Not looking good for sure. Sounds about right, @a1+1k2qmywya

When Oracle is hungry …

They will treat you like an onion. They will cut you, peel you and throw you away like the outer skin, and you will be left with tears in your eyes!

Say no

Now comes the part where we are expected to "be team players" and take on more work to cover for those who were laid off. I'm done with it. I'm refusing. Everybody should consider doing the same.

Europe layoffs

When layoffs will happen in Europe? Especially for NetSuite

Be the first

It is disgusting how they treat employees. I have a good advice for you - do not dive deeply in Oracle, focus to find a new job before letting them lay you off. 🤘🏻

Offshore projects affected a lot ?

Noticed projects with more counts in offshore got affected a lot in latest layoff ? One way to say is these projects are matured and less revenue making. The other way to say is to cut offshoring and build more in happening places.

Layoff NA & Canada

Has the layoffs been completed for NA, India, and Canada, or is it still on going?

If my team loses just one more role

we’ll probably be unable to deliver. No roles have been backfilled for at least a year. These layoffs have been hitting hard, and the team has been barely managing the workload as it is. I shudder to think what things will look like once this all... — read more
