Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

Morale is at all times high

My team is more cheerful and productive than ever. Layoffs are producing miracles! Some guys even acquired specific skills overnight, so they can fill in for booted teammates. Of course, they do that along with their own tasks, in which they’ve been stellar. I mean, they were always good, but now they have been consistently outperforming. I enjoy my work like never before. More layoffs, please!

@2ugv+1uZoCNxj It's "low" when you are sitting at home.

I think the OP is just joking here. Of course we know that morale at Cisco is all time LOW.

This is a great example of what is wrong with our society today. They take at face value what they read. There is no way in he-l, the OP was serious with this post given the morale at Cisco.
Suggestion to get around people's inability to recognize Sarcasm or Satire -- Add #Satire, #Sarcasm to your post.
They still won't get it, esp 60% of the people left at Cisco, but at least the other 40% of us will get it. :)
Btw -- this post is NOT either of those #'s. It's #seriouslymeant

The ethics at Cisco are going down the tubes...

Verbal abuse, violent conniptions, lying, stealing, and other ethics issues have been part of Cisco's culture for more than 20 years. The most recent layoff wasn't out of scale with many others over 23 years and the far less than obvious selection process also remains consistent.

Why is it everyone comes here every layoff pretending this is the first time any of this happened? People not figuring this out would be a great criteria for layoff candidates.

You are sick! Your fellow employees have been badly hurt, stabbed in the back, and you want more? The ethics at Cisco are going down the tubes and with this attitude it’ll just continue at a faster rate!!!

This is of course a troll, and OP just having some fun. It is genuinely scary that many Cisco employees are taking it seriously, and replying with advice! this is hillarious how people are so gullible! Best of the best - LOL

Start worrying about Who’s next in the next round of layoffs ?
Didn’t Cisco layoffs the bottom 10% in last two years in multiple rounds of layoff ?
Are they targeting the employees who meet expectations now ?
Hunger games continues as usual.

Is it sad that no one gets sarcasm? I thought the OP was hilarious. I just love picking up a new (obsolete, outdated) skill that’s worthless to my resume because Cisco LR’d the person doing that job for 10-15 yrs because they’re too expensive, & they expect us younger, less experienced workers to know how to use those antique skills no one but Cisco uses. Go team!
