The truth of the latest layoff/termination in Force as oracle wants to call it (meaning that the job position is no longer needed) applies only for USA based jobs. It is well known that the company keeps hiring in India, 2 or more for the same job... — read more 

I was laid off from Oracle in 2017 at 57. It was the first time to be laid off in my 33 year career. It took me 18 months to find another job. Great company, 5 minutes from home. But I had to readjust my expectations and went from being a senior... — read more 

They keep cutting people and transferring their workload to those of us who are left. We are already doing the work of two-three people each, and now it looks like they plan to lay off even more people? What do they think we are, robots? That they... — read more

Laid off Wednesday July 1, 2020 from Oracle Support after working there for 20 years. No good estimate as to what percentage were effected, maybe 5%, maybe 20%. As a 65 year old this is not a problem for me, by contrast all those 40-55 year olds... — read more 

I'm on the Support end of things. We lost several support people on our team, plus some upper management. I've already started looking for jobs outside of the company...Are more layoffs in August certain?

Be aware, the bloodshed isn't over - more layoffs coming in August. This company has no soul!

So how about investing in that future instead of gutting it with cuts?

Or today, to be more precise considering the time. I guess sleep is not in my cards tonight. I'm getting really tired of ALWAYS having to worry about layoffs. And the current state of our industry and the entire economy is just making things worst. I... — read more 

Reduction in force; after over 20 years of great reviews and hard work..kicked to the curb. Kicked to the curb without the needed Health Insurance. Too old to find another job...who cares. Not Oracle.

Mass layoff at engineers and managers level.

Hi All - I have access to a resume polishing non profit org, you can give them your resume using any name (or anonimously) Please upvote this post if you'd be interested having them share the link here on layoffs.com - I can also have them do a... — read more 

It can't be turned around. We've been re-orging every year for what, 5 years or more now? Yes there are problems with all parts of the sales org, but they are just one of many, many problems within Oracle. For starters, the stupidity of separate apps... — read more 

Got laid off today from support after working for 20+ years.

Myself and my entire team was decimated today with layoffs at Oracle. I worked in customer fulfillment and was a focal for OCI and C@C Teams. What's crazy is that I was extremely busy.

Got RIF'ed this morning in Burlington. Told 10% across the board in Deb Smith group

I was calling Oracle support and was transferred to an engineer who said he didn't work for Oracle anymore. Must have been VERY recent for his cell phone to still be in the support rotation.

Heard of a couple of people but not sure if it’s performance related or a big RIF. It’s the AA org in BUR/SCA. Anyone else ?

DJ is giving up OCI and moving on to LE's personal projects. CM will take over full control. All teams under DJ and CM are going to go through moves over the month. Big Org changes coming there not sure how it will affect headcount.

People were letgo today at GIT/OIT Project teams - Mostly PMs from MX.

VK leading SC org. That’s a welcome change . Brace for impact!!!

When I left the company a little over a year ago it was really bad. I've been reading the posts here this morning and it doesn't seem like much has changed since then. Am I wrong? I'm mostly asking because I hope that people I used to work with... — read more

Oracle is irrelevant in modern architecture design. It has already died. But much like its stone age predecessors from the 1970s it will aways be around in fossil form, making people think such a beast still exists. The vast majority of customers... — read more

I'm sure you saw this, but it belongs here, as well. Get out, or face having your resume become obsolete, and you will join the ranks of the people who are certified in Novell, dBase, Compaq, and Windows 95. Every day you spend at Oracle, migrating... — read more
