Is EssilorLuxottica in Dallas going to have a layoff?

Any info on Layoffs for end of this year/next year? All the managers seem to be coming into the office more and meeting with HR. I'm wondering if the way the economy is headed if they plan on downsizing.

This is ridiculous. They fired a lot of the people who knew the business. How is crippling the business for months to save a few dollars anywhere near being a good thing?

My impression is their will be more layoffs, particularly employees between Level 5 and Level 8 are next. In my opinion, the the list could also include Level 4's.

Anybody knows if this round of layoffs at Essilor is over? And what locations were hit other than Dallas? Any info would be appreciated.

Essilor of America is doing a large layoff this morning of only American employees. No French expats were terminated because Essilor is French owned. Most all of the layoffs are long term, upper level and older aged employees.
