@2mb it is real. layoffs are like clock work at this company. Minions - those who got let go this time were once feeling lucky like you. It is just a matter of time for your luck to ran out. Top levels don’t care about employees.
Fake news. No future layoffs
Bullsh-t. Dress it however you want. Pure greed and complete lack of compassion and integrity at top levels is your reason.
Nonsense! No layoff this year. Dream on !
Seagate is always looking out a year into the future and likes to trim staff early for that environment they see coming. They will tell employees everything is awesome but I think it's clear AI is a dotcom type of bubble. We also have a smaller number of products to develop going forward needing less staff. I think 2027 will be a big year for reductions and unfortunately good current financials don't mean much. Look for consolidation of departments and executive departures later this year to set the stage. Needless to say it might be prudent to save this years bonus.
How big was it? Heard a lot of teams doing complete changes.
AI bubble for sure.
@fg Dave wants 70% margins
Any idea why layoff now
@a1 systems group for sure, but also heard of one known person from the drive side.
Record market cap, company worth billions more than its ever been worth, and another fu--ing layoff. What a bunch of dou--e bags behind the wheel.
It's happening all over.
