Could someone summarise total terms in NA by locations
Heard of about 6K terminations and transitions in total
Heard of about 6K terminations and transitions in total are in various states of notification. At least a few of the units (BU) are being and have been shopped around for bids, including most Enterprise (aka Distributed) that is not closely tied or... — read more
Logic Fail
I feel like a lot of people have given up the idea of critical thinking and logic and are letting their emotions get the best of them. Everyone who is left is freaking out that they are not finding out their salary and title until December. Let me... — read more
CA Process Efficiency
Probably the most efficient process within CA that i have seen in my 15+ years with the company was their termination process. Well, you get the phone call, by the end of the phone call you have your paperwork, the next day boxes show up at your home... — read more
What is the meaning of transition?!
I read a lot about transition and taking the bonus. What does that mean in detail?
Any one from Services who got the 'Stay' email?
I and everyone I know in services have received the standard divest/transit email. Is there any one in Services with the 'Stay' email?
EMEA status
Anybody knows their status other than Services in EMEA? Still waiting but no email yet...
Is it just me...
...or does it feel like today is turning out to be another bust and we'll have to wait even longer to find out our faith? I know some people have already been notified they are being let go, but the majority is still waiting to find out what's going... — read more
A lot of Automic, CD and Security in Transition
So can we assume they are in transition because the future of that BU are in doubt? May be these will be divested
Stay letter content
For those wondering how a stay letter looks like, here's a what somebody ( @W10AUMB-vam ) pasted from the content of the PDF in another thread: We are pleased to welcome you to Broadcom! As you know, Broadcom acquired CA, Inc. in a transaction that... — read more
Any news on site consolidation for mainframe BU
Any news on Mainframe business site consolidation in US? I know ITC MF will be closed by next year and Prague will remain along with Lisle, Plano, Pittsburgh. What about other locations?
How many people got stay?
Seems to be the prevalent one - to my great surprise.
When will it start?
Any ideas on when will notifications go out? I'm thinking they'll spread this over few days or even weeks, just so they don't end up with so many disgruntled former employees at once. Which means that if I'm right, the following days will be anything... — read more
Islandia
Messages have already been sent. Transitional until May. Anyone in Islandia a perm at the moment?
Please summarize the office wise status here.
Your office/Location - BU - Status(Stay/Term/Transition)

Anything? What we got tells us absolutely nothing substantial.

Divested Solutions
So, in conclusions all rumors regarding divested or throw away solutions were false, right? (Except veracode) according to Ashok
CA Services Rumors
Any news?
Unvested CA stock grants
Has anyone heard for certain what will happen with the unvested stock grants that some of us were given?
What time are the emails going out tomorrow?
Will it be in the morning?
Golden Parachutes for everyone!
Oh wait...not us...
Yammer
I must admit, I found Yammer to be both helpful and annoying during the last 5 months. For me it was the only place where I could get credible information. Annoying because some of my peers focused on all the wrong things. I see now many people are... — read more
One day more
I'm hoping I'm only one day away from freedom from this place. I have long stopped hoping I am going to be spared and started praying I'm laid off come tomorrow. It's really sad that CA turned into a company that makes me feel that way. Also, for... — read more
Automation BU update
Broadcom want to keep the automation as they think it will be leader on the market. Nevertheless, they will terminate some location as CA, UK, FR. Vienna shouldn't be much impacted. Prague will grow. Good luck folks
Question for "stay" people
Broadcom will offer letters next month. If i do not accept the role that they have to offer, will i be terminated the same day or a notice period will be given? Does it entitle for any package?
Thank you CA!!!
It was a good run. Let’s post if you were acquired by CA or joined CA directly and in what year. 1999 - Platinum Technology Inc.
Broadcom is absolutely NOT looking for ways to avoid paying your severance.
The severance is not for your benefit, it is for theirs. It has two purposes. 1) gets you to agree to give up any right to sue them, and 2) it lets them show remaining employees how well they’ll be treated when it’s their turn, thus helping with... — read more
Are you badging in?
If you’re not sure you are staying or going, don’t give them cause. Make sure you badge into your local office. Not showing up is the same as job abandonment in the US.
The sky isn't falling
Looked outside, the sky isn't falling. Divestures will be minimal, brands return, and licensing is easier.
Veracode
No surprise since Veracode was never integrated into CA and was easy to divest. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/thoma-bravo-to-acquire-veracode-software-from-broadcom-inc-nasdaqavgo-300743862.html
US layoffs

Who else is glad the date is nearly here?

What is the process after November 7th
Could someone clarify what will happen. So around November 7th people are told if they get to stay or have to leave? But for this who are told to stay , they won’t know at what Salary until 45 days later? Is this true?
Best of luck from India!!!
Whoever is waiting for their fate this week, I pray God to give them the best. Keep calm as HE is best of planners. All the best again.
