I am a consistent high performer and a team player who is always willing to lend a hand, jump in, and get things done. I was RIF'd yesterday, but honestly, I don't feel horrible. I have never enjoyed working for the leader of our group or my direct... — read more

Does anyone know details if a severance package was given ?
Things will get better
I was spared this time (two people from my team are gone, though) but I was laid off twice before, so I can tell you from personal experience that things will get better. Everything might look bleak right now, but there is light at the end of the... — read more
Frustrated and confused
Management three levels up is on PTO today and we haven’t heard a peep about layoffs. Are they seriously going to send us into the weekend with this level of anxiety? Maybe I’ll get a meeting invite any minute eliminating all of our positions? — read more

I’ve been RIFed today
Medicare sales. And, frankly, I feel unburdened. I’ve been questioning for a while now if it was even moral to work for this company. Many of us get into this industry bcs we want to help other people, and most of the time here I felt like an a--hole... — read more

My heart . . . can I go on longer?
Today, I was RIF’d. It wasn’t my first time—years ago, another company let me go because of COVID. Waking up to the email that delivered the news that hit me hard. That first company was my first love. And as they say, you never forget your first... — read more
Special place in he-l
Sc--w this company. I didn't get RIF'd (this time), but I'm a manager and this is the 2nd time I've had to RIF good people this year. They give us a script and tell us "don't say you're sorry, don't show remorse" and "own the decision". But it... — read more

Why are we still hiring?
So many people are being laid off and at the same time, there are hundreds of open positions we're currently trying to fill. Why isn't there a hiring freeze in place?

Riffed today 8/8
I have been reassigned to a new manager 5x in a year. An initial 1:1 was put on my calendar last week with my new manager who I had never spoken to before. When I join the call, HR is on the call. I was told my role was being eliminated in the... — read more
Age makeup of laid off employees
Looks like older employees are being targeted once again. Not surprising at all but still disheartening.

RIF’D Today - Which department and State?
So sorry you were let go, I have been there myself but it truly was a blessing in disguise. Opened a better door for me, hang in there! Can you please share what department and state you are from?

Are managers allowed to make any kind of announcement to let their teams know they are safe? It is really starting to worry me that my manager hasn’t said anything either way.

Well 8/8 is here, it is mid-morning...for all the hype, has anyone gotten Riffed or know DEFINITELY of a person or area hit?
What's expected to be hit today?
Are any areas considered safe?
As Prepared As I Can Be
I have worked for this company for almost 2 decades and am fully prepared to be RIF'ed today. I am leaning on God to hold me - and anyone else impacted [even those left behind with all the work] - up in these uncertain times. May God be with all of... — read more
How many were affected so far?
I know this will last until the end of the week, but I'm hoping the brunt of it already happened and today and tomorrow will mostly be about tying up loose ends (people who are on vacation, sick leave, or whatever). I know I'm probably grasping at... — read more
Layoffs and Location
If you’re being layoff or already have been. Drop your Pulsepoint location and department.
Townhouse Account
With all the layoffs looming, the House account will be downsized to the Townhouse account.
Layoffs and H1Bs
How is a company allowed to hire more and more H1Bs while laying off American citizens. Does anyone at labor dept. or any labor group look into this? What are the rules?
Happy Quarter Quell
May the Odds Be Ever In Your Favor! Let's be good to each other in the coming days. Lots of impact.
Scheduled PTO
I am on PTO this entire week. How and when will I be contacted and notified if I am rif'd? Prepaid vacation with my family so we are not canceling this family time...just in case.
Is there an actual reason behind layoffs?
I’m seriously asking. I haven’t heard of any strategy that would require reorg/layoffs of this size. Is it company performance? If so, what are the justifications for such LR and how do they see that it will improve company performance? Is there a... — read more
A BILLION DOLLAR COMPANY DOING MAJOR LAYOFFS?
Yup, you read that right. A quick search shows this companies net worth and it’s definitely not in the thousands. But yet they have the audacity to attempt to lay off a HUGE amount of employees. But they do this every year, are we surprised. Are we... — read more
Media Coverage
Had anyone contacted the media about this huge rif? Local and national coverage is what this needs.
This uncertainty and tension is unbearable
I don’t know how the rest of you are. I assume the same. I just can’t stand not-knowing, and not even being certain whether it begins tomorrow or not. I wish mgmt was more decent and transparent about layoffs. This way we are working ourselves up to... — read more
Has anyone seen any WARN Notices?
If there are upcoming RIFs starting as soon as tomorrow, wouldn’t Elv had to of filed WARN notices? Especially given the magnitude of a 10-20% reduction, I would think they would have had to file something ahead of time. I tried looking to see if... — read more
