The governor called the layoffs some of the biggest the state has ever seen. He said his top priority is helping the workers find new jobs quickly, and that Wyoming’s Department of Workforce Services is already working with the company to support everyone affected.

AI now affects one in four jobs worldwide and could trigger the largest workforce displacement in modern history. An estimated 30–50% of office jobs may be replaced or heavily reshaped within five years. Are we prepared? Are our leaders prepared? Do we have a plan to retrain workers for the new labor market?

Are there layoffs next week ? If so what geo and groups

Head of the asset protection department let go?

Will not specify what departments but Sr. Managers have the picks and HR has been notified. Also for next year we have operational changes and more business consolidation, a plan to cut 5% of the workforce for cost savings is in discussion. I hate this part of my job and this is how I vent. Im sorry

Has anyone ever heard of an employee with less than 7 years at HPE ask to be on the WFR list?

New O&T initiative. Filter out must have staff. Rest can sink with the Titanic

Philips Respironics plans to lay off nearly 200 employees at three facilities in Westmoreland County, Pa., according to a Workforce Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) notice filed with the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry.

What the f Wellsfargo? I have been working here since 2007! Is it how you treat your employees now? FU!

Trapp Technology (parent company of ArmorPoint) in Phoenix, AZ has laid off 9% of its workforce as it continues downsizing in efforts to buoy the struggling ArmorPoint line of services. Due to the continued rolling layoffs the company has discontinued its overnight support. The company has shed around 29% of its total workforce since 2024 through smaller staffing reductions.

Are you in Operations in the US or Canada, well expect your job to go overseas in 2026. Along with our friends from McKinsey, Ops leadership is making a BIG push to offshore Ops team members to our offices in the Philippines or to a new third party vendor in India. Yes, you heard it right, your years of commitment and hard work will be rewarded by giving your job to a third party vendor, all to save a buck. Looks like this will be a big shift with almost 70% of Operations team members in North America being impacted. Managers, SME's, skilled roles to call center and back office, doesn't matter. Going from thousands to only hundreds of team members remaining in the US.

So uh… heads up to the rest of the company when your new offshore “team” pulls up with zero idea what they’re doing. Good luck, I guess

I’ll get the ball rolling : 300 from non mfg and 200 from mfg axed.
Package not bad 25 mths but company can pull the plug anytime up to your departure date and have you stay.

Ok start gibbering !

Marketing teams working under their respective geos will be absorbed into WW E-Commerce on January 1st. Many are concerned with redundancy and eventual reduction in workforce. Not much else has been provided aside from this being a global change but layoffs seem probable by end of fiscal year.

RIFs have been taking place since the first week of Sept. Get with it.
Have there really been constant layoffs for the past few months? I haven't heard of anybody being cut since much earlier in the year. Yes, a lot of people are mentioning layoffs and we all know more is coming, but so far, it's yet to materialize.

people in my office were laid off yesterday. Anyone else?

Allied Tube and Conduit Corporation, a manufacturer of electrical and mechanical tubing and conduit, including steel, plastic and aluminum products for use in building and in various products like traffic safety, announced layoffs beginning in January.
The move will permanently lay off 205 people, Mindy Cline, vice president of human resources for Atkore, the brand’s parent company, wrote in a letter to the Arizona Department of Economic Security.

While a minority of the layoffs discussed during third-quarter earnings were attributed to AI, the AI-related share increased notably through 2025, growing to just above 15% in the quarter. But more broadly, he highlighted that the companies discussing AI in the context of their workforce or layoffs “indeed appear to be pulling back disproportionately on hiring.”

Layoffs confirmed by a senior leader at my plant that has majority experience in the corporate offices. They said it will impact a lot of corporate positions & may also impact some field roles. They said it’ll happen end of this week early next so brace yourselves! They’re blaming it on the merge but we all know they’re out sourcing roles to Mexico etc

Came across this while scrolling through our board, checking for updates. OP: @b5+1kbdhf394

What jobs are getting axed ?

if you’re an account specialist in corporates you might be cooked 8/10. If you haven’t received your RIF notification already well you’re either safe or they’re coming for you too. I mean they’re eliminating directors, managers, and account specialists. So it doesn’t seem like anyone is spared. It seems like a lot of these people are being let go. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter - blur

Saw an article that the full ISG team was let go

Heard that WFRs continue on a smaller scale. Any major mass layoffs planned?

Love to see VPs/Sr.Dir/Dirs let go first…will save Veritas tons of $$$$.

Sales reps, category managers, and at least one branch manager.
Private Equity noise getting louder.

Procrastinators of layoff doom, here is a record of totals for Ford employees.

I will post the link again when the 2025 numbers are updated.

Let see how correct the predictors of large layoffs for 2025 actually were.

Layoffs for Operations and Technology soon with more DC exit?

Visited the offices in IL and TX and there isn’t anyone I recognize in the office anymore. Conferences don’t have any UOP name players. Far fall in the last 10 years. Leftovers.

Think about that for a moment. This is a bank that grew up in the midwest USA. And, now, a lot of the back office work is being moved to India. Your private information, your accounts. Why is this allowed?

Beware! The language in the severance plan is designed to silence you and whatever you have suffered under the WF new "management" style. Its all designed to cover up what they are doing and how they are doing it. Getting rid of long-term, loyal employees and then hiring outside the USA or worse.
Current management in this case is complicit in the overall scheme. They know who is buttering their bread, and frankly, its not the folks who've made the bank successful. Nope. Its the new team, those who came like locusts from other banks.....and who are now reaping bonuses for replicating where they came from. Yes! You guessed it, WF is not getting to be "leaps ahead", no they are just catching up. To jump ahead of the banking group, you'd have to have original, out of the box thinking. And ability to tolerate risk. All of which....the current leadership lacks. And given the brain drain, well then. I think we can all agree.....there is little upside from here.

Were all the CA Optum
Coders let go in the last round of layoffs?
The manager and director in CA as well?

Stating the obvious: layoffs are direct hires losing their job. Ironically, outsourced labor is often low quality and sometimes justified because it is “easier to fire a contract worker”. Yet I am not seeing a directed reduction in this labor pool. What gives?

My team was pretty small to begin with … my best guesstimate is that roughly 25 to 50 percent got laid off. Gutted!

Nevada-based battery recycler Redwood Materials is laying off staff. The company is cutting approximately 5% of its workforce. This news comes just weeks after it secured a massive $350 million funding injection.

As confirmed by parent company Thunderful Group, Coatsink will be losing around half of its total workforce, equating to 50-60 roles, all because of "a more challenging co-development market" and as "the business is currently unable to support all existing employees."

ABM the janitorial service provider of over 200 employees and over 9 years is being transitioned out of Nike campus on a decision from CBRE, not Nike. ABM has consistently delivered exceptional experience for Nike athletes on campus, the kpi and consistent inspection scores were off the charts! The teams ABM provided service for: campus janitorial, TWC both janitorial and S&L teams, the gyms: both attendants and pm custodial teams, and durables the (cafe dish return team). Lives have been truly disrupted and thrown into chaos for nothing. Most of the ABM management have decide to leave the account due to this decision and not wanting to be associated with the new company, and the treatment from CBRE, ABM management had over 100 years of campus experience collectively. ABM is a solutions provider that delivers an exceptional experience. Get ready for service to be different , it might look great initially , however when the dust settles challenges will be realized with the experience lost. The stable work force you have come to rely and depend on will be a thing of the past.

I'm thinking less than normal because NDA was pushed back a quarter.

HP Inc. (HPQ) reported fiscal fourth quarter earnings results after the close on Tuesday, which topped Wall Street estimates on both the top and bottom lines. The company also announced it is pursuing new AI initiatives, which include reducing "gross global headcount by approximately 4,000-6,000 employees."
