#layoffs

What is happening with SAP Concur? Seems ripe for a full transformation or integration into SAP. After 12 years the company doesn’t “fit” at SAP? Layoffs? Hiring freeze? New Germans? Spin off?

As an f u to the upper management I'm selling all my shares , no way this shyte will recover

Sc--w your layoffs

Any ideas as to why a company would choose to loose four days worth of interest on money paid for wages four days early? I don’t see any sort of holiday either here nor in Buenos Aires… selling? Shutting down?

Unsure on details though. Layoffs? Decentralized and moved into LOB? Both? Something else entirely? Regardless, supposed to be big changes.

I’ve been job hunting for the last 6 months and nothing solid has materialized. Even contracts are scarce in Atlanta for the dev market.

I’m looking for a job and I know there’s been cuts and more work on the employees but I don’t care because I’m desperate. I’m very close to considering the end of everything after 39 years on this miserable rock 🪨

There are legitimate, known concerns about how the company is being run—especially with investors focused on squeezing profitability. That part is real, and employees feel it every day.

I’ve been at Belk a long time. I’ve seen it at its best—and now I’m seeing it at its worst.

I want the company to survive, but I’m not going to pretend the current decisions aren’t damaging its reputation.

But turning every conversation into “the sky is falling” doesn’t make it more true. It just makes it harder to have a real, useful conversation. You can even see it in the voting—neutral or positive comments get buried, while the most negative ones get pushed to the top.

And let’s be honest—there’s a good chance people on the corporate side, and even investors, read sites like this to get a sense of what’s happening at store level. Some comments probably get attention and spark real conversations. Others get ignored because they read like venting instead of something worth acting on.

At a certain point, it becomes predictable. You can walk into a store and spot that same negativity within minutes—the groups standing around, the constant complaining, the lack of focus. And it wouldn’t be surprising if that same tone carries over into conversations with customers.

At the same time, Belk is putting millions into revamping the Rewards+ program. That alone should tell you this isn’t some “Belk is about to close any day now” situation.

Where it falls apart is everything happening alongside that—cutting hours during peak times, pushing associates to chase perfect NPS scores, things like that. It makes it a lot harder for any of these investments to actually work.

The bigger issue is who’s really in control. When investors are driving everything, the focus turns into short-term results at all costs. And right now, it’s hard to see how that shifts enough to stop it from hurting the business long term.

It's that time of the year again and a certain Product person has been leaking about "headcount adjustments" Anyone have more details? I'm tired of the same people failing upwards and I've been looking for something else but it's not a good time to be job hunting.

Several on my team received invites for 10am call today - no agenda. Peer was informed a few teams are moving offshore. They are only keeping a few leaders on a few more weeks to shift the work to OGS. WHY is this continuing to happen??? How can so many people keep losing their jobs? The ‘new’ jobs posted online are bogus & aren’t being filled. Don’t waste your time applying. It’s all smoke & mirrors. SMDH

Company lost so many customers that revenue took a significant hit. As such in April 2026 they will be raising prices for over 1.5 million customers to squeeze more revenue out of them. Prediction, it pi---s more customers off and accelerates the customer exodus to competitors.

It is my understanding that the company is planning to lay off a significant number of employees who are directly responsible for day-to-day execution. In light of this, it would be advisable to also evaluate the structure and effectiveness of the senior management team.

A thorough assessment of management layers and their contribution to operational efficiency may help identify meaningful cost-saving opportunities. In some instances, organizations develop multiple layers of leadership that are not closely aligned with core business functions, which can introduce inefficiencies. Additionally, certain senior-level appointments made under prior leadership may warrant review to ensure alignment with current organizational needs and performance expectations.

It is also important to evaluate whether the addition of high-ranking, high-cost roles is delivering the intended improvements in efficiency and execution. A balanced approach that considers both leadership structure and frontline resources is critical to sustaining operational effectiveness.

From a customer perspective, there are growing concerns regarding execution timelines. Based on ongoing engagement with financial institutions across both the East and West Coasts, a consistent theme is that projects are taking longer than expected to launch. This may reflect an overreliance on layered management and delegation, rather than a streamlined, execution-focused approach.

Given the competitive landscape, these concerns are increasingly significant. Industry discussions indicate that organizations are actively evaluating alternative providers, making it essential to address efficiency, accountability, and delivery performance to maintain strong client relationships l,

Just because we were spared this time doesn’t mean we are out of the clear. Once this WB + Paramount merger happens we are ALL on the chopping block. This can’t be helped. Allow yourself to breathe a sigh of relief then start looking again. The battle has been won but the war rages on.

Clearly, David had no idea how widespread our network is and how crucial some remote workers are. Like literally frameworks, codebases, etc would fail overnight. This gives leadership some time to figure out Plan B.

Plan B will be what will happen in 2027. Buckle up.

Lowe’s delivers appliance in Region 6 with a third party disaster known as Spirit. Nothing but a bunch of illegals that are apathetic, lazy pos, that play the language barrier card when they damage your appliances, floors, walls, doorways etc. They show up late, unprepared and untrained. Corporate Lowes doesn’t give a rats a-s about complaints, as long as they save paying in house drivers a decent wage and benefits. Everyone needs to purchase elsewhere. Fck Lowes!

Realistically they keep doing this on and on and surely they will have to stop doing this eventually I am not seeing the end game here. Soon no one will want to join and you will have ki-led off most of the workforce?

Princeton University has frozen senior faculty salaries and cut departmental budgets. President Christopher Eisgruber warned that more cuts are coming. Nine staff members from the Keller Center for Innovation were recently laid off. The university faces financial pressure due to rising healthcare costs and lower endowment returns. Future changes will focus on efficiency rather than expansion.

Goldman Sachs forecasts rising oil prices will impact the US labor market. The bank expects a reduction of 10,000 jobs per month through 2026. This could push the unemployment rate to 4.6% by the third quarter of 2026. Slower hiring, rather than increased layoffs, will be the main driver. Consumer-facing industries, like leisure and hospitality, are most vulnerable.

entire IT department for the business side has been cut

Looks like it got popped and fell to the ground with an empty basket. Let the ones who fought for your good wages and100% paid healthcare( The Union ) keep your basket full and quit counting on those who care nothing for you. All deals must go thru The Union first.

Prediction is Citi is going to be at <100k employees within 5 years or so. The market will simply demand it. You are delusional if you are in the middle/early part of your career thinking long term at Citi. People in the revenue generating side of things in the business will have a much longer off ramp. However, if you are in operations/ technology/ risk and controls etc then you are being very complacent not actively having a back up plan. These MDs you bootkiss are basically being mandated that they reduce their teams on an ongoing and continuous basis. Jane and her cohort of fu-kwits clearly have highly ambitious plans for RIF

Widespread layoffs are happening due to poor financial performance, weak leadership, and an overhyped push toward AI from the CTO.

Is layoffs happening in Northridge with so many people leaving?

Question for those in the know, since clearly there are some here. Obviously you get a better deal if you're laid off as far as unemployment goes. Last time Phase 1 people had to share in middle of September if they were staying or going. Then layoffs occurred the end of October. Repeat this time?

Another 2% down day. This on the news from one of our clients downgrading us. Do something Mike. Besides following Frank's layoff now and later plan.

What is the future ? Will there be any layoffs as part of this merger ? Any updates to RTO ?

See if people get let go ……..

There was $700m left in the restructuring fund at the end of Q3 and it wasn't enough, so they added $500m more.

All you can be sure is it will happen in the next 9 weeks.

I'm coming on like a hurricane
My lightning's flashing across the sky
You're only young, but you're gonna die

I won't take no prisoners, won't spare no lives
Nobody's putting up a fight
I've got my bell, I'm gonna take you to he-l
I'm gonna get ya, said I'll get ya

He-l's bells........

Dan signed up for multi billion dollar transformation.

15k layoffs wasn't enough.

More cuts def coming and it seems like execs are getting real with their teams and just flat out scrutinizing everything.

The Sr Directors are also lacking one of the two main key skills. 1) leadership 2) technical knowledge.

Only a handful around that can do both. Can't grow a company if u are just one.
