Thread regarding Synopsys Inc. layoffs

Use your time wisely in the upcoming holiday season

Shankar’s AMA session today once again confirmed that additional workforce reductions are expected within TPG in 2026. He also acknowledged that leadership was not able to complete all planned organizational adjustments before December, as had previously been anticipated. This round of impact appears notably smaller on the Ansys side based on empirical data collected through internal high-level communications, which now aligns with the delayed timeline because the leadership is still trying to figure out these legacy Ansys portfolios, e.g., under MBU, FBU, etc.

Given this uncertainty, it might be wise to use the upcoming holiday season to prepare for potential changes—refresh your resume, explore job opportunities, and take steps to strengthen your position for next spring. Taking proactive measures now can make a meaningful difference later.

Once they do the initial 10% or so, I think they'll look to see what/who can be cut to improve profitability.

@OP Thanks for the heads-up, OP. I'm from Ansys MBU, and I can confirm that our trim this round is well below 10%. It all makes sense now—just as Shankar mentioned, they were still figuring out whom to cut. I’ll definitely make sure to be prepared for a much harder impact on the Ansys side in the next two rounds next year.

@OP It's hard to believe such useful advice was from a blogger instead of the management.

@OP But there will be no holiday shutdown to refresh myself, right?
