September layoff running total

September totals (except Sep01): 4538 layoffs, and 279 additions.

Methodology and day-by-day breakdown is in comments.

I got confirmation that lay offs are ongoing in Pacific region, but in some countries they have a 2 week delay after the notice, while they still have access to Slack. Thus, there are more layoffs in reality which will catch up in these totals in couple of weeks.

I have a suspicion some locations (in Pacific region) do not cut Slack access immediately in the same way it was done for the NA prior. May be HR figured out that cutting immediately makes it too easy to track and they don't want this kind of panic and bad press.
