This company can't get anything right, they can't even do layoffs right.
@a2 What region please?
HR will be visiting Spain office this week
US hit.
What was the severance package. For us min 10 weeks, max 26 weeks
I'm hoping there's at least 10k jobs lost. The stock should have a Block style rally after the good news!
Anything AMER?
No meetings happened in EMEA yet
What org are you in?
If anyone is saying they were made redundant in Ireland it means they have no clue what they are saying. What happens is you will be informed that your job is at risk and a 30 day consultation process begins. Usually, 99% of the time the ppl told of their jobs being at risk are eventually affected but sometimes the actual number may be smaller than initial notification population.
Is there any activity outside of Ireland?
Haven't heard anything
They notified the government in Ireland on Friday, which means 30 or more redundancies. I don't know of anyone affected. I am unsure if anything has been done yet as there are a lot of remote employees.
Yes EMEA had meetings as well.
No emails in emea yet to any area. I will guess by end of week
@ax A link was shared below showing ireland is impacted but no numbers or departments confirmed yet as far as I know.
Anyone in EMEA?
What areas? Org or dpt?
It seems to be global and across various departments. I’ve seen APAC, Europe, US.
I guess if you have no meeting today you are fine this round, this usually happens on the same day for everyone.
What department please?
“Important Business Update” usually just means: “You’re fired.”
When people are saying they have meetings etc can they say what country and dept they are from? As some people love putting up click bait messages and then complete silence, thanks
