I heard a rumor that there will be layoffs on July 15th, and then more on August 15th? Has anyone heard about this? Not sure if it's even true, or what departments.

Q2 earnings reports are expected to be on July 30th, so the July 15 layoffs would be ahead of that call. I overheard this information before the reports that the EU approval for the WBD acquisition is July 7th.

I ended up getting formal performance feedback not long after suggesting during a meeting that product planning would probably run smoother if a few departments worked together earlier in the process. A mistake I won't be making twice, that's for sure.

Is there anybody out there that has any insight they’d be willing to share about this department in terms of a timeline for impending layoffs?

I have been asked as a care coordinator to switch work flows this month (June) and work new areas that I have never worked before. Everything came out of the blue a few days ago and other care managers from different department are now working the area that I worked and grown accustom to. Does anyone know what is going on?

I'm interviewing in Richfield for a role. How is BBY doing? Do they layoff often? Which departments are are risk?

For anyone who has had this happen, how hard is it to get to another department/team? How long did it take? Was reorged today and not thrilled with where they put me.

Currently in prod support, WLB is not there and looking to pivot. Which is better? Or is it all bad?

I work in the credit fraud department, where overtime is often offered. However, today, they announced that overtime is no longer available for stateside employees, but the contractors in India will now be able to work overtime. We inquired about the reason behind this decision, and they simply stated that overtime is not a guaranteed benefit. Furthermore, on March 20, they laid off a few remote workers from my department. All of these events make me feel uneasy. Anything like this going on in your department?

Sounds like it's everywhere. Has any area been spared?

Are we still expecting the next round of org changes and small rounds of JEs on the 21st?

It’s that time of year again! Joan’s sending out cryptic meeting invites!
Any idea what this is about? Who’s getting laid off this time?

country/region would be good too

My group hit rock bottom and we keep digging.

Hearing different rumors about Summer Friday’s this week.
WFH every Friday over the summer, two weeks of your choice to WFH. and up to your department head about coming to office Fridays.
Any truth of any of these?

More than 5,800 federal public lands workers departed last year. This affected eight Mountain West states. Agencies like the U.S. Forest Service saw significant declines. Many workers were reassigned to the Interior Secretary's office. This reorganization may lead to slower decision-making.

Anyone have one coming up this month? If so what department and what date?

Any word on if Case Mgmet will be impacted?

My original post was deleted so I’ll filter this one. What counts as a reorg for a layoff?

Half of my group is moving to another manager, but not a BU. The head of my department is losing half of their downloaded. Am I at risk?

As of today’s end, our department has still not received any communication from leadership regarding compensation. The ongoing lack of clear leadership and consistent communication continues to be our department’s most significant concern.

Business continuity? The “Nike intelligence center”? Emergency management? Literally millions are being WASTED in payroll and opex with people getting paid to twiddle their thumbs, while people who actually do work are getting decimated.

Pls list any department or area with active RIF’S . Maybe we can see a pattern ?

Why did it take so long to officially announce Omar’s departure? Jeff has been in the role since February.

If you have reliable info, please share. Good luck to all.

I’m sure there are numerous, but the 360 app team is a total mystery to me. No one responds to emails or messages. It’s impossible to get any answers to XDA or FMP. I am starting to think none of them know the programs and aren’t able to answer questions.

Anyone had their realignment meeting yet today? If so, what dept are you and what did they say??

Assuming more layoffs tomorrow.

Boarding begins 8AM Tuesday

Layoffs have been making their way into the department, and there keeps being talk that Platinum Service Leads are next amongst coworkers. Management is also really pushing for us to prove we are busy. Just wanted to put it out there and see what people have been hearing.

you can usually tell the power setup in a department within the first 5 minutes of a meeting.

just watch who the boss talks to first. watch who they ask for ideas, who they look to for answers, and who they check with before moving on.

when a boss says stuff like, "jason, what do you thnk??? or "nicole, what is your take?" that tells you a lot. it shows who they trust and whose opinion matters most. that is usually the person with real pull in the room, even if their title does not sound the biggest.

sooo, its simple, pay attention to that person….learn how they think. build a good working relationship with them. a lot of times, that is the person helping shape the real decisions and decides who moves up or down.

If you are impacted by the layoff's today, please share your department and paygrade.

Please post if you are impacted by the layoffs today. Let us know department and paygrade if you feel comfortable sharing.

And we’re going to a consolidated D&C org

Merle Norman is a great option if there are any near you. Commission is much better than belk, without the insane requests for credit, working in other departments, and understaffing.

We had a coffee chat with the director of our department, and they mentioned that most of the LCS projects are likely to be either discontinued or significantly scaled down. At the same time, there’s another initiative emerging informally around DAC using Amines. The person leading this has no knowledge of fundamentals. Another waste of resources.

my opinion, complete waste of time. Department trying to justify their wasted "AI" investment.

Any insight on which depts/teams on the upcoming lists? There are 4 more layoff dates - along with individual layoffs thru Q4 2026.

Anyone have the list they can share?

Sorry to all who have to endure today, remember you are strong, you are worthy, chin up! Please add if you are laid off this week, what department, job title, grade and how many numbers if you know. Good luck.
