Do you think there will be Citrix Systems layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?
Does Vista want to lose money?
TK blew it by being so cynical about WFH and hard-assed about RTO. It has lowered morale and reduced productivity. Is that what Vista wants in their $16B investment? A company where the employees have low morale and low productivity, which will lead... — read more
Wait a sec…
Weren’t we supposed to have our Year-End Performance Evaluation scores be available in Workday earlier this week? Not like it would make any difference, but I believe we were going to be able to respond before the month end on Wednesday.
Cuts in December?
I'm thinking we're done until next year, but I might be wrong.
Citrix Technology Its a fairytale.
Are partners, service providers and customers still believing this legacy pig with lipstick bedtime story? I see CTPs babbling hot air on how great the new strategy will be. Come on nobody is going to step into that pile of sh-t for the 3rd... — read more
Taking their time about it.
I guess the next wave of layoff's wont be until next week. I didn't think they would have held out until after Thanksgiving to be honest. Anyone have word on any BU decisions? That post a few days ago regarding the ShareFile separation was... — read more

In Tom we trust
Best CEO ever
Please close the FTL site
The buildings are mostly empty. Walking around in them is like walking in an over-air-conditioned tomb. It's pointless to be there. Stop wasting money on the real estate and convert us all to remotes.
Raleigh 12-1
Just heard that in 12/1 raleigh office is going to be SF on the first floor only, and, Citrites no longer will have access to building
Okay, but seriously, is it that bad?
I honestly feel for those who have been let go, whether they wanted to go or not. It’s always demanding, so I understand that. That being said, for those of us who are still around, is there no one that is being challenged at their work... — read more
No, you are not safe here, in case you keep wondering
At this moment, nobody at Citrix is safe. I've seen folks who have worked for the company for decades laid off in the last few months, as well as people who have just been here a year. I've witnessed both our best and worst employees leave. People... — read more
Do Execs Enjoy Doing This?
Frankly, why do we do it every year...
My motivation has all but vanished
With so many layoffs occurring and the likelihood that I will be let go in the coming weeks, my motivation has all but vanished. Even if I am not let go immediately, I believe it is only a matter of time before I am, and until then, I will be... — read more
Odds on the CSG Plan Succeeding
Yes Citrix is dead, yes Tibco is dead, the cultures are dead, the employees have been treated horribly so far, and the future business looks like a financial conglomerate and not cozy tech companies. Putting that aside, TK does have a history of... — read more
VP of engineering let go at sharefile
After hours layoff at sharefile apparently. Their VP got let go last minute. Barely had a chance to get a slack message announcing it before they nuked him. Looks like a lot more heads will roll at sharefile than originally thought. Anyone know... — read more
Consulting wfh?
Does anyone know if consultants will still be allowed to work from home? It seems in some countries they are the only ones exempt from RTO
Manager says…
That my team is not going away and that we will survive the next wave. This is awful news because I was waiting on a severance package.
The Oh I'm Outta here day is upon us!!
Get ready folks .... things are about to get interesting
It's been awfully quiet
No updates! No layoffs! Not even any direction of what should we do till the planning is done. Don't know what happening.
How many more layoffs before Citrix goes out of business?
I would honestly like to know the answer to that. You need employees to do the work! Every company has some fat, but after a while, you are cutting the essential workforce that keeps the cogs moving. As much as you think you can put all of that on... — read more
Past Managers not considered top talent
The only thing that makes me feel good about the bad managers at Citrix over the years is if you look at the company they are at now it is a company no one has heard of. The managers that treated employees like cr-p are not considered top talent... — read more

Citrix gets Veteren's Day off, but TIBCO has to work? Yet they took away our xmas to NYE days away? I thought this was a merger...
Going private
Other legacy software players, as in the recently completed merger of Tibco Software and Citrix Systems, may go private and work out their transitions away from the glare of public markets, he said. This is one of the things I'm most scared of... — read more
Wall Street is cheering for layoffs
It makes me sick that Wall Street analysts are looking at people losing their livelihoods and seeing that as a positive sign. They're even encouraging it and asking for more cuts to improve the various stocks' standings. That is both cruel and... — read more
It’s over
Finally, the waiting is over. I got my release and severance. Thank you lord
Why do you think Citrix is to blame for your skill obsolescence?
I am not a cheerleader, nor do I want anyone to perceive this question as some kind of provocation. However, lately I hear a lot of people complaining that their skills have eroded here. Okay, there are many reasons for complaining, but I don't... — read more
Sighhh another week at Shitrix
Pain :(
Hmm, where did Krause get this idea?
Story about Twitter, and one of the venture capital buddies Musk has hired to help run things. Note the last sentence. "In text messages with Musk that later became public as part of the Twitter deal, Calacanis floated himself as a possible Twitter... — read more
Has the severance budget run out?
Seeing some comments about this and how management plan to use performance plans to layoff people without severance to save money, can anyone confirm this?
Finding another job
It would be interesting if we could have some analysis of how many Citrix employees face problems finding a new job because their skills are outdated. I personally believe that this is the primary reason why some are still here, that is, a much more... — read more

It's safer to stay - for now
I was laid off from Citrix, but I understand why people would continue working there. We're currently in a recession, at war, and in an election year. Not to mention all the tech layoffs and hiring freezes due to the aforementioned macroeconomic... — read more

Is joining a startup a good idea right now?
I don't want to jump from one job with no job security to another, but the best offer I got so far is from a startup. Considering the turmoil that's been happening in that sector as well, I'm not sure if I should accept it or not. The fact they are... — read more
