I'm sitting here hoping to get a call but I can't tell anybody because I know they are all praying to keep their jobs. Why we weren't given an option to volunteer is beyond me. This would be much less painful for everybody. Even if there were not... — read more 

Thank the lord this torture is over My suffering at this shithole of he-l is over I am strong as I have survived the most incompetent management in history And finally F u all, F u all, sk my dk

Why they laid me off and not my worthless director who has only been with the company less than two years and has zero L and D skills is beyond me.

Invites have been going out this morning. Small groups like 10 people. In some cases random selection of people across a variety of teams. Meetings scheduled all throughout the day so far. The Sharefile disabled user verification is a good way to... — read more 

Lyrics to make you think......hmmm. Darling, you got to let me know Should I stay or should I go? If you say that you are mine I'll be here 'till the end of time So you got to let me know Should I stay or should I go? I've given Citrix a great... — read more 

Perhaps it's an ugly thing to say at this moment because there are those who want to keep their jobs, but I think that a layoff is not the worst thing that can happen to someone at Citrix. It's worse to be stuck here, to be lulled into false... — read more 

If at one time I was worried about whether I would be a target or not, now I'm certainly not anxious about it at all, because this is no longer the company I used to work for. Instead of worrying, I send resumes. What would I miss from here? I... — read more 

Laid-off tech recruiters are looking for work outside the industry Tech recruiting is a tough business right now. Layoffs in the industry have hit recruiting and HR teams harder than any other, and laid-off recruiters say they’re struggling to find... — read more 

Layoffs in December. Top line execs will organise structure mid November. Will everything in place before 1st Jan 2023. This is reading between the lines of what has been presented.

Make your preparations, say your goodbyes, it’s time for the end, it’s funny how time flies.

I feel stupid spending time driving in. I feel stupid spending all day on-site, never talking face-to-face with anyone there (since my meetings are via Teams, usually with other geos). Then I feel stupid driving home. Why do I feel this way? Because... — read more 

I think we can all agree that this process is a huge mess. I'm among those who're trying to get out of it but I'm failing in finding a good alternative. Out of the three offers I receive the best one was nearly a quarter less than I make here. I... — read more

One thing is certain, and that is when I leave or am laid off, I will certainly not write a pathetic post on LinkedIn that I am very grateful to Citrix for the fantastic opportunity that has been given to me. Why do people even write such posts?... — read more 

Curious to those in the sale orgs at either tibco/Citrix, have you been told there is a role for you? Im sure there are teams being built out now and I'm curious if people are getting the heads up they are safe.

Most of the people I know are working like 2 hrs a day tops. Keep collecting your six figure pay checks and lay low for as long as possible. Use this time to polish up your resume, find side hustles, etc. Enjoy the free cash!!

If my source is true, my teams final day is today and we’ll be given a teams invite Monday. Good luck everyone!

Motivation - zero. How do you find the motivation to work in this kind of atmosphere?

Hearing about ongoing layoffs with small groups being notified each week gives me great anxiety. Can layoffs be at least a little better managed in this company? I am anxious and worried about what to do next, but on the other hand, maybe it... — read more 

Let them fire me. I don't care. I will not give them the satisfaction of doing exactly what they're hoping a lot of us will do. I already have a few offers but I refuse to take any of them just yet. I will also use this opportunity to give them a... — read more 

I saw in the employee communication that the Thank You day is gone. It seems like people here alluded to this previously, but was anyone actually notified about it as a final decision before today? I'm just trying to figure out who is getting what... — read more

I have no idea what my reaction would be if my manager or HR told me I was laid off. I haven't been laid off before, so I know it would come as a shock even if I know it's a real possibility. I don't know if I would just sit there, cry, or yell at... — read more

How are you downloading personal documents payslip, tax documents etc from company provided laptops.

The worst feeling is the feeling of wasted time here. It's my own fault that I didn't leave earlier, but the disappointment in this company is huge. I knew it wasn't ideal here but I obviously didn't do my research well before I applied for the job... — read more 

Did anyone proof this before it went out? Typos, blurry images, formatting issues, text cut off. Guess benefits aren't that important?

You either believe in the future of the company or leave. Simple as that

There are too many reasons why the outlook that people have on their work and this company has never been worse. Or maybe I'm wrong, maybe there were worse periods here in the past?

I am very worried, but I try to preoccupy myself with sending applications so that I don't have to think about what will happen next. I'm still curious though, what do you think are some of the most telling signs that someone's team is going to... — read more
