30-40% reduction sounds like alot....but i believe it. We employees here at Sperry NB are seeing it first hand. All morning long, left and right, one after another. Even PGLs are being let go and techs with 20+ yrs here.

Workload leading up the latest?
For those regrettably laid off, how busy were you in recent days and weeks leading up to it? Had work slowed appreciably? Not asking for specific job duties, just in general.
When will this end?
I wonder, do they plan to ever stop with cuts or should we just get used to this being our new normal? Instead of a Monday morning coffee or a briefing, we get Monday morning layoffs. And Tuesday morning layoffs. And so on. Yes, I'm angry and... — read more

Supply Chain Layoffs
Any word on how bad supply chain folks were hit. Rumor is the structure would go down to one PM&L manager for NAL.
No More Packages
Severance packages are being eliminated due to the stimulus package benefits. Layoffs will continue through the end of June at current market conditions.
No Paycheck or Severance
Today is a regular payroll day, I did not get paid. I still also have not received my severance check and its been over 2 weeks.

It's the end of the week and month - does this mean we are done with layoffs? At least for now?
