Sometimes I visit this forum to see if there are any new rumors about layoffs and then I notice how people basically talk about Citrix and the future of this company, whether the business strategy is good or not etc. Why care so much about a company... — read more 

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-01-14/citrix-is-said-to-be-in-advanced-talks-for-elliott-vista-buyout It’s very likely to happen at this point. Very concerning.

How else can we explain all the missteps of late? I refuse to believe that getting rid of employees with the most wisdom and experience is a good move. I refuse to believe that allowing talent to switch to our competition without trying to keep them... — read more 

Yup, split likely coming soon into three parts, if not all at once: Wrike, back to a PE, Workspace, into a big slow software house like Broadcom where they can milk it for another 10 years after trimming the overhead, and the good old NetScaler, into... — read more 

Couldnt get details, but major announcements coming. Anyone hear anything?

I get the impression that management is on my back 24/7. Instead of multiple managers making a teamwork dynamic, no, they 'ki-l' the whole atmosphere and suck out every atom of energy. It is because of them that morale is bad. I still haven't... — read more 

Only a glutton for punishment would give his or her all for this management. You can give your 110% and be the absolute best at what you do and they'll repay you with no loyalty and get rid of you the moment they can justify it in some way. If you're... — read more 

I don't understand how we can be having more cuts when we are understaffed as it is. Even without their interference, people are leaving. I wonder if they even realize how many people are actively looking and will be gone as soon as the right... — read more 

Is there a way to know if these layoffs are specific to one location or if we'll be learning about more cuts over the next few days?

Inflation is all around us, prices of everything are going up. I think all wages should go up at least 10% for 2022. What do you guys thin?

Let me get this right. In a time where we are struggling as a business, leadership decide to all fly around the world to Nashville and record a load of videos for a virtual summit…. Nothing more to add.

I want to know, where do the other 73 percent work? I think there's something wrong with these numbers because even outside of Citrix, I don't know anybody who's not worried about layoffs, no matter where they work. I'm talking retail, O&G... — read more 

I can't be the only one who feels this way. I can't remember when I last had the energy to do even the most mundane things after work. I am constantly tired and all the free time I have is spent trying to rest and catch up on sleep. I used to read at... — read more 

For those of you who worked at Citrix during it's heyday, watching it crumble to pieces is tough. I don't think anyone could imagine what has transpired over the past 5 or so years. Layoff after layoff, the CEO-merry-go-round, active investors... — read more 

I don't have reliable information about what is happening in Europe, but there are a lot of rumors that layoffs are underway. Would that mean we can expect layoffs here soon as well?

It's strange reading this board. So many people hate their job but they choose to stay. I don't hate it. I come here because I'm worried I might lose it. I doubt that any other place will pay somebody who is over 50 as much as I'm getting here, so my... — read more 

That's the main reason I left. I didn't wait for them to get rid of me, I did it my way. I pity the people who are still stuck there and I pity even more those who do business with Citrix. I don't think they realize the level of incompetence and bad... — read more 

So I found this and it seems some Citrites have already posted. I am going to post just not give too much info away. The survey https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeubCMYSYpG73QAAo4xNfZG3kn4R9qajUZ6jvY3yuJijyrMTg/viewform The... — read more 

Things are not going to get better, ever. The company makes sure to put on a good face for the public but behind the scenes, the employees are treated horribly. I've never worked for a company that treated its employees worse. You have two options... — read more 

Many people believe that purchasing Wrike for $2.25B at the start of 2021 was the beginning of the end for C-tr-x. Thought it would be interesting to go back in time and invest that $2,25B in something (heck, anything) else. So, here is how... — read more

Why is Citrix full of bad managers who have no idea how to actually manage? If they're not outright abusive, they're passive-aggressive and try to ostracize team members behind their backs. This behavior is not only accepted, it's encouraged. No... — read more 

I'm not staying at a company that can't offer me minimal job security. I understand layoffs are sometimes necessary, but having to worry about being cut 24/7 is ridiculous. I can't understand young people who keep accepting jobs here. Do they not... — read more 

With the New Year nearly here, let's see if we can think of a way for Citrix to turn itself around. Is there a way to fix the mess that the management has created or is it already too late?

It's become ridiculous how much Citrix is trying to embellish the image of this company. I think it is in vain because the reputation has already deteriorated significantly. Outside of Citrix people already know what kind of company it is. All... — read more 

I heard that Support org was going to start a union to fight back the BS? Where is the list to sign up?

Will it ever end?

It's becoming ridiculous how Citrix encourages people to leave on their own. Is it such a problem to give people severance pay, instead of trying to undervalue them in every way to make them resign on their own? I applied to several companies... — read more

Several of my closed sources in HR have communicated that they didn't lay off the entire list of people due to optics. There are close to 1,000 employees on the list and roughly 600 were laid off thus far. Oh in case you all didn't know, Citrix laid... — read more 

Anyone know why? Merger or acquisition upcoming?

Do you put it in once you get the written offer? Or once the background check clears? I’m a straight arrow so no concern Of it coming back with concerns. What do others do?

I'm done with sh-t ho-e. It's been sh-t for a while yeah but the latest layoffs and people walking means the remaining people are overburdened with no help in sight. Each person that leaves, adds the burden to the remaining. I know other people In... — read more
