Workers across the U.S., India, and other regions learned their jobs were gone before most people had finished their morning coffee, with no prior warning from HR or their managers.

According to slack, several thousand, which means there’s more incoming.
@b1 Can anyone confirm this 10k volume threshold assertion, or is that just conjecture?
@an It's done in batches of 10,000 because that's the limit in the HCM workflow.
Good - the more layoffs, the better for the stock price
Layoffs could go all week until 30k is reached.
Not 30k. Oracle lied to the media.
Why would they exaggerate the size of the layoffs?
Is firing 10,000 people not enough these days? Sheesh!
I managed to survive a huge layoff at Google and two big layoffs at Oracle. All were handled this way.
only 10k confirmed by Slack count, in our team all affected disappeared from Slack immediately
so call me skeptical about 30k, it may very well total into it in the end, but definitely not tonight
