This will be a hard post as I have to be vague.

So after the multi phased layoff, re-orgs, I have a MD 3 layers up that does not understand the tech they are over. No shocker there, but they are making decisions that more than hamper operations. I can’t be specific naturally but let’s just say they are out of their depth.

It’s like “so you need nails to build a house, are you sure you can’t cut back on the number of nails used? or let’s try using half the nails, how about that?. If you aren’t sure if the structure can remain standing, then just build half of the house.”

That’s as close to an example I can give without jeopardizing my employment but you can see how odd and reckless this is. Now imagine trying to explain the folly of using half of the nails and\or building only half of the house and they just don’t get it.


I'm outta here

Just TUPE-ed to a different contact provider who actually gave us a 1.5% increase on transfer because the timing means we miss their annual review and DXC's (ha ha) March review.
It remains to be seen what they're actually like as an employer - but they'd have to try really hard to be worse that DXC.
Hope things work out for the rest of you.

people begging to be laid off

Unless you are ready to retire or have other financial means, calling BS on a golden ticket. It take an average of two weeks for every year of experience to find a new job. The severance here for most people will be just enough to find another role. If your skills were that valuable you would have found a new higher paying job instead of waiting for a “golden ticket”


U.S. severance???

Can anyone who's been let go recently ACTUALLY CONFIRM the severance package given and your job designation? A3 A4 D2 D4 ETC?

I'm not asking what you think, what you've heard or what the documents in SharePoint say, is there someone with a real world experience that can definitively say what their experience was and if its a lump sum or ongoing payments until it runs out

Still waiting on “proof” that those caught in the Nov 20 cuts would have ALL outstanding RSU vest.

Basically, someone stated that the Nov 20 layoff was some kind of exception to the prorated RSU treatment that involuntary separations receive.

That those caught in this particular wave would have all future years (the two tranches for 2027 and the one for 2028) vest upon separation.

Any truth in this?


Look at it this way

From an APJ perspective, these layoffs, while difficult, were long overdue. For years, the company carried excessive overhead in the US and Europe: overstaffed legacy teams, prolonged decision-making processes, and limited focus on high-impact delivery.
The reductions have created a leaner organization. APJ teams are now stepping up significantly, delivering intelligent, efficient work on cloud and AI initiatives at a much faster pace while headquarters adapts to the new structure.
For those affected by the layoffs: if performance or adaptation lagged, the cuts were inevitable in a competitive market. Rather than endless complaints in forums, the focus should shift to skill development or new opportunities.
The company is now more agile and better positioned for growth in 2026. APJ continues to drive strong execution. It is time to contribute meaningfully or move on.


December Layoff Separation Letter

I know there’s a good bit of you on here that were let go in early December and were sent that BS separation letter to sign. My question is: if we agreed to sign it, that meant we stayed “employed” until March 31st and that would be our last day of employment and can sign up for unemployment on April 1st.

My question is: Since March 31st is our last day of employment, we would receive a final paycheck on April 15th, correct?


Retirements, hmmm

Odd that people are announcing retirements that haven’t discussed it before… I had my job eliminated and was given the choice to say if I was retiring or not. I responded with “just tell people what you did” rather than deal with colleagues congratulating me on retirement when it is really a termination. Is this a company tactic to make them look better?
