#general will be below 155,000 by 31st May 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... — read more 

Maybe tomorrow can happen, by April 3rd it can happen? How many still pending.. How much percentage of Mexico gone?

If the next date is really March 31, why wait? Why not do it right now? Why put us through more stress? I honest to goodness don't get it.

Anyone on a PIP will be gone by no later than March 31st. Anyone receiving a FY25 employee review lower than "Successfully Meets Expectations" will also be gone.

No other org leadership in the world will treat their employees this badly !! No transparency and courage to support or atleast be honest about what's going on. While M and up taking all the benefits, proactively switching orgs to save their jobs the... — read more 

What criteria will most likely determine cuts within sales orgs?

Looks like the US is heading into a collapse over the next decade with the relentless jobs being lost due to H1B visas Ofdshoeing and AI. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if we see over 50% of white collar jobs completely gone over the next 5... — read more

Do we have any idea on when OHAI is going to hit and how bad it will be? We are stretched thin as it is.

Are they going to replace everyone with H1B visas and offshore workers? Whats the gameplan?

Just a heads up folks- the mother of all layoffs are starting. WARN notices soon.

Wouldn't shock me if it bleeds into next week. Good luck to all. Not much else to say at this point.

Today we have the 'mysterious meeting'. Last day tomorrow... And there's many people impacted :/

I was just informed by my manager that RIFs are happening next week and I am on the reduction list. Anyone who is non-billable is in the crosshairs. No word on what the severance package looks like.

We all su-k and need to form a union. We went thru 4 years of college, have experience, done well and now the greed of 10 people is ruining our lives and our kids lives. We have to wake up now

get ready guys, they usually start in MDC then go to others

Same pattern, just email, no 1:1.. What the fcuk is this pattern.. when will next wave happens

I'm interviewing now and may get an offer soon. If I do, can I volunteer to be laid off to get a package?

Veteran. High performer. Unique skillset. None of it matters. It's about the money. Skill and experience cost more, so they'll keep the slacker and cut the person who actually knows what they're doing. Meaning all that hard work you put in? That was... — read more 

It's amazing how many high performers suddenly become "low performers" when it's time for cuts. Every single time.

Do we have a ballpark figure?

Has anybody heard of how NetSuite might be affected by all of this?

Layoffs are bad, but the weeks and in some cases months leading up to them are pure chaos. It's the time when stabbing coworkers in the back is almost the norm, as if that'd help save somebody. Few people are actually working and most are speculating... — read more

I just want to move on.

A change freeze is starting on the 24th. No clear reason why in the email. ‘Indefinite customer-specific change freeze, focusing on High Touch (HT) customers first, and expanding to others in the coming days/weeks’ Good luck 🫡

a lot are experiencing issues connecting to slack and emails ( not everyone ) , maybe they are testing the ki-l switch when layoffs starts , weird it didnt affect everyone

Please mention the product/team, country, no.of ic, m ppl affected etc this gives an idea where the cuts are happening where to expect next. Please avoid all other noises.

Leadership doesn't care about the software/database customer. As a result, anyone and everyone is just a number. Leadership is also aware that it is not as easy as a flick of a switch from Oracle DB/software to something else, particularly the... — read more 

You would be smart to quit your Oracle job in California and move to find a job in either St Louis Missouri, Detroit Michigan or Cook County Illinois which is Chicago. Gas in all three cities is cheaper but you’re going to have to dodge all the... — read more

Or will my manager call me on my cellphone? Or will he wait until I come back?

Lot of management being moved to other products instead of laying them off. Wish they did the same to ICs who have real skills.
