#reorganization

Clemmer did the same thing with AGERE and LSI in the early 2000's. Starboard sees a huge return on share price, sells of course. Good call on Starboard's part brining Clemmers to the table.

There is going to be be some major reorgs and fat cutting. I don't think the Triquint-RFMD Lackeys will survive overall. Arrangements like five supervisors for the the same group of people will not bode well.

There will be massive duplication of services. Redundant groups will be addressed.
Watch the management! True test of character now, watch what your manager shares with you. More than likely only concerned about themselves. And rightfully so.
This is an IP grab for Skyworks. Maybe some niche designers will be absorbed. Personally, I feel it couldn't happen to a more deserving management group!

Just in time for Christmas too!

Really! J become chairwoman.. so many laid off (some were so good resources),so many are still suffering under some id*t thanks to the reorg

The reorg seems big, but there was no clarification whether there will be layoffs or not.

Can someone well-informed please comment?

Does anyone know what the new regional structure will look like after they drop down to 3 VPs in GNT?

I get the emails. ~528 for HQ, ~287 for TNC. Assuming this does not include Remote

Anyone know what merch org changes are happening?

Has any division been required to sign away their Grandfathered compensation as part of the reorganization? (Bonus/Stock Options)

It was presented as a company wide initiative as a way to invest more labor in to stores.

It’s been a few months since the last one and the holidays are coming. Wait they did shake up a few of the incompetent last week!

Have we heard any rumblings for this org? A lot of support roles for the different call centers. Quality analysts, Data analysts, Access team, Workforce Management, Vendor Business Partners, Everyone in the call centers, etc

Does anyone know if TC (creative) will be impacted? Considering that last Aug they had some lay offs and a recent org update too.

There's a buzz new round of changes are coming ONCE AGAIN to people's manager.

Chapter leads, group chapter leads, delivery team leads are going to have new fancy titles.

Not sure what's the future for associates level 5-7.

Anyone knows what's the new team structure?

As a shopper of Target, it feels like the real issue is the quality of experience in your stores. Not sure how this gutting/reorg at HQ will solve any of the true problems that exist. The reality is the cleanliness, organization, employee availability/guest interaction, and in stocks have all fallen off the cliff. These are retail fundamentals that have nothing to do with speed in making decisions at HQ. Just last night there had to be 4 to 5 key grocery items not in stock. This is driving me to go to other retailers which are starting to become my #1 shopping location due to them have products in stock. Hopefully your senior leaders do actually monitor this to get the message. They don't listen to normal feedback channels.

Naturally tons of rumors going around. Listing below things I have heard that I feel relatively confident in based on my sources.

• IM & Planning combining. Potentially leading to middle management cuts?
• A&A combing with another pyramid, likely home?
• F&B and E&B combining.
• L8+ have been told to relocate to Minneapolis. Already hearing some will not be returning to company.

General Numbers (from WSJ & internal)

• 1,000 layoffs, 800 job posting eliminations
• 80% of layoffs will come from US HQ
• Leaders will have 3x impact vs individual contributors.
• Would lead to estimated 600 leader layoffs, 200 ICs.

Hearing layoffs all the way from EVP down to L5. Top of pay range relative to level likely highest risk.

Assumptions are merch will be hit hardest, with likely impacts to planning as well as support roles for all functions.

Curious on the validity of all of these rumors. Like I said, I feel pretty confident in them but curious to what everyone else is hearing.

If there’s no real strategy or bigger plan and, more importantly, if leadership can’t adapt effectively to fast-changing circumstances, none of these layoffs or reorganizations will mean anything. My confidence in their ability to steer through the turbulence is very low.

Hi Team,
I am writing to share a difficult update.
With the launch of R2 in front of us and the need to profitably scale our business, we have made the very difficult decision to make a number of structural adjustments to our teams. These changes result in a reduction in the size of our team by roughly 4.5%.
These are not changes that were made lightly. With the changing operating backdrop, we had to rethink how we are scaling our go-to-market functions. This news is challenging to hear, and the hard work and contributions of the team members who are leaving are greatly appreciated.
To ensure we move forward with clarity, I want to summarize the areas most impacted.
Streamlining the Customer Journey: To provide a seamless experience for our customers, we are integrating the Vehicle Operations workstreams into the Service organization to create fewer customer handoffs and clearer ownership. We are also integrating the Delivery and Mobile Operations into the Sales organization to ensure the purchase experience is as seamless as possible with a single touchpoint throughout the entire sales process and to delivery.
Elevating Our Marketing Efforts: Historically we have had multiple functions that collectively capture what would typically be housed in a single marketing organization. We have made the decision to form a single marketing organization, and while we recruit our first Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), I will be acting as Interim CMO. Our Marketing Experiences team, led by Denise Cherry, and the Creative Studio team, led by Matt Soldan, will both report directly to me for now.
These changes are being made to ensure we can deliver on our potential by scaling efficiently towards building a healthy and profitable business. I am incredibly confident in R2 and the hard work of our teams to deliver and ramp this incredible product.
Thanks again everyone.

On Tuesday, we’ll share changes to our headquarters structure as an important step in accelerating how we work. This includes eliminating about 1,800 non-field roles—about 8% of our global HQ team. As we make these changes, I’m asking all U.S. HQ team members to work from home next week. Target in India and our other global teams will follow their in-office routines.

Today, we're announcing a number of role reductions and a series of organizational changes within the Risk org. These decisions are difficult, and we recognize the impact they will have on valued colleagues and teams. I want to share what's changing and why.
WHY WE'RE MAKING THE CHANGES
• Over the past few years, we've invested in building more global technical controls and in standardizing our requirements and verifiers within Risk Review. We've made significant progress in how we approach risk management and compliance. By moving from bespoke, manual reviews to a more consistent and automated process, we've been able to deliver more accurate and reliable compliance outcomes across Meta. This standardization means that many routine decisions can now be handled efficiently by technology, freeing our teams to
•focus on the most complex and high-impact challenges. As a result, we don't need as many roles in some areas as we once did. Our work has matured, and we're at a point where we can operate more efficiently and effectively, while still upholding the highest standards for compliance.
• KEY CHANGES WE'RE MAKING:
• Reducing roles in Product Risk Program Manager, Shared Services and Global Security & Privacy (GSP) teams.
• Consolidating more Areas work in London, where we have strong leadership and engineering presence.
• Reorganizing GSP and integrating it with the Reg Readiness and DPO team, which we're renaming Regulatory Compliance Programs.
LOOKING AHEAD
We remain committed to delivering innovative products while meeting our regulatory

• obligations. These changes do not alter our policies, standards for compliance, or legal responsibilities. Automation and technology. will continue to strengthen our compliance program, but human judgment will always play a crucial role in assessing novel and complex issues. This is a natural next step in our journey, and as our processes mature, our teams will be able to focus on the most challenging and high-impact work.
  We also know this is a hard day for many. Our priority is to support impacted employees and help them find new opportunities, within Meta or beyond. We are equipping managers and team leaders with resources to support their teams, and we will continue to communicate openly as we move through this transition. We are grateful for the contributions of everyone affected and remain committed to supporting you through this change.

What is the latest with APLA and when will it disband?
I'm really concerned about CS and the role they will hold when this change takes effect?
Asking for a friend.
Thanks

Council Chairs established and members nominated. Mobility surveys have not closed yet but ppl have already started disappearing from QP (most are involuntary). Staffing & selection process is on by first week of November and we all know how this game works - similar to how PADP is run in this company, rife with politics. Good luck to those who wants to remain employed!

Go to Slack and check your org chart .. there are many changes and some of us are left with no one to report to ... like an orphan ...

i don't know what it mean .. are the opt ins stil there ? it almost seems live like numbers changing and so far
MTV - seems to be untouched generally in marketing
anyway look before they figure it out ...

When does Sanoke make first moves/changes specifically at ELT level

They’ve been doing small surgical cuts across teams for 1-2 years now. Mostly to move roles to India. Would they make cuts on those same teams again?

More layoffs, more lost benefits, more reorgs, more of the same. I've lost any hope I had that things might by some miracle improve.

Is this the calm before the storm

Hard to stay engaged with so many changes looming.

Bring on the layoffs and reorgs… been hearing rumors for several months and just ready to find out my path heading towards 2026. Best of luck everyone.

Now can we stop with all the useless reorgs and focus on products instead?

Accenture has reduced its workforce by more than 11,000 employees in the past quarter, spending over $2 billion on severance in recent years as the company undertakes a major restructuring driven by automation and changing industry demands.

Accenture layoffs: How much did IT consulting firm spend to reduce its workforce?

In fiscal 2024 and 2023, Accenture recorded business optimisation costs of $438 million and $1,063 million, respectively, primarily for employee severance, according to the company's annual report.

The CRO is hiring all his buddies from his former company and firing or pushing out the tenured RVPs and AEs. The GC mysteriously decides to retire. The weird announcement about MM. Should we all be concerned?? What's the story with TG leaving after 9 years at Appian. Who is taking over the west?

Anyone feeling comfortable sharing what org and group they were just laid off from? 😬😬 They’ve really done a number on Deal Managers, Deal Specialists, SalesHelp, Deal Desk in the last couple years, but the last two rounds of layoffs I’m shocked at…there was already so little headcount with all that work being rolled into one. Have been shocked to see some of the names that were axed. Really sad.

So, they brought back Ptc, and they brought back the night crew, what's next? Will we see a rebranding of the Audit Team. The companies shrink has had to increase yearly since the loss of them.

Expect layoffs at Senior Manager and RMM level come January!

I don't have the words to explain the total chaos that today was! It was total confusion! Nobody knows anything! No answers! This is total nonsense! Somebody should be held accountable! Did anyone else feel the frustration that many of us did?

Can someone share what the new reorg details that were shared with the company yesterday? Curious because I saw something about banking and the leader JJ. I used to work in that area. Curious what is going on.

Predictions indicate that ExxonMobil may face significant layoffs in 2025 due to ongoing cost-cutting measures and restructuring efforts.

Context and Predictions

Recent discussions among employees and industry analysts suggest that ExxonMobil is preparing for substantial workforce reductions over the next few years. Concerns have been raised about the company's commitment to achieving $7 billion in structural cost savings, which may lead to layoffs across various departments and locations, including key operational areas in the United States and internationally.

Employee Sentiments

Many employees express anxiety about job security, citing a culture of increased micromanagement, turnover, and a push for higher productivity with fewer resources. There are indications that the company may continue to outsource jobs and reduce benefits, further contributing to a challenging work environment.

Financial Performance

While ExxonMobil reported strong financial results in the second quarter of 2025, including earnings of $7.1 billion, the company is also focusing on cost-saving strategies to maintain profitability amid fluctuating market conditions. This dual focus on financial performance and cost reduction may lead to difficult decisions regarding staffing levels.
ExxonMobil

In summary, while ExxonMobil's financial health appears robust, the combination of cost-cutting initiatives and employee concerns suggests that layoffs could be a significant aspect of the company's strategy moving forward into 2025. Employees and stakeholders are advised to stay informed about developments as the situation evolves.

was a nice big air burger, reorg in November

This can only end well. You have to open up your throat so you don't choke on the sc----g that is Windows. Sure, it's unwanted but you will enjoy it. Certainly, this effort will result in a resurgence of hiring elimination of RIFs.

https://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft/windows-11/microsoft-conducts-major-windows-reorg-that-sees-core-engineering-teams-back-under-the-same-roof-as-feature-experience-teams

In a new internal memo, Windows and Surface boss Pavan Davuluri has announced that Microsoft is bringing the teams that make the core of Windows back into the Windows organization.
...
The move comes as Microsoft promises the future of Windows to be one that is agentic, prioritizing voice input in addition to mouse and keyboard usage, and becoming an AI-powered OS that can conduct tasks and actions on your behalf. Davuluri even says that the restructure will help the company “deliver our vision of Windows as an Agentic OS”
