Those people who knows how to kiss a-- managers will be fine as they always been. No layoffs can or will impact low performers and insiders who are managers favorites. You don't have to work or contribute, just sell or bad mouth your colleagues. You... — read more 

Do you remeber the good old times when EMC was almighty and powerful and when all Carnegie Mellon PhDs would show an interest in an EMC position? https://youtu.be/wWCA5Ttw3Bs

Original deal when announced was at 67 billion but some how we bought EMC for 58.1 billion. Dell can layoff 50% in NDC, MDC and Hopkinton and still have enough people with not enough work for 8 hours a day. But Dell is doing nothing, so something is... — read more

A new month is beggining. Temperature is getting hot hot hot. People are taking their well deserved holidays but remember that our Mr. BB (belly button) will be shrinking the company. Try to save money. Layoffs are coming huge, WW impact.

While I don't want anybody to lose thier job - I'd rather if they are going to do layoffs - they do it before the holidays - when a lot of companies are not hiring then. Layoffs are sad - there is really no way to predict them. They will happen when... — read more

This morning, 8 DataDomain employees laid off in RTP. New dell-rules are that you get to continue working for 2 weeks. Severance is 10 weeks + 1week/year of service.

Yet... IMHO - Dell will make the cuts before the end of their fiscal Q2 (end of July). They need to do this as they are currently bleeding money, which needs to stop. The call will be made, and the number of employees that are needed to be cut are... — read more

Maybe if they stopped wasting money - that would help! Flying managers and non- managers all over the place to meet with coworkers - when in all honesty - video chat while not as personable is a whole lot cheaper and works!! Just saying.

It's a verifiable fact that Dell has amassed half a billion in cash to pay severance for massive layoffs to come, but I've never heard anything about July. Everyone I know says October is when the axe gets dropped on all their heads.
