Thread regarding Fidelity Investments layoffs

Bo-b drops today

Some folks have received the memo, communication already.

Others will have the decision communicated today and in stages rest of the week.

Bob's reshuffling at the top has fueled another change, no one is immune.

If the numbers are to be believed, expect ~6k associates to be impacted

Entire 6k will not be this week but in stages, until Q1 2026

If your manager tells you otherwise, they're lying of course

@jv 3 weeks this, 3 days that.

Never actually telling folks here what will come. That’s because you don’t know anything either.

For everyone else, go through the old posts here. You will see all the doom and gloom predictions then as well.

Anyone hear anything about FI? Service Teams are beyond overwhelmed, long processing timeframes, errors, no additional headcount, forcing changes to each role that negatively impact associates. Some 8’s admitting people are getting destroyed everyday. It’s so unhealthy and depressing.

Roger had ~20k associates under him, who was also a "my way or highway" kind of person and believed in hard RTO guidelines, colocation.

Bob already has ~24k associates under him, and some reputation of acting like "do you know who I am"

If law of averages is to be believed, I won't be surprised if by Q1 2026 there are some serious cuts.

We know in 3 weeks the BIG announcement is going to come, stay tuned.

Basically future of wealth will be decided in coming weeks.

Bob a long with some cr-ppy HR folks is been pushing for colocation cr-p.

They want to shift everything in WLK it seems.

Lot of leads have already been moving to NC and WLK.

You think scrum masters are gonna be impacted? Even in product areas that have teams that bring in some of the highest revenue?

I doubt it'll JUST wealth.

Pretty much all BU's have been doing reshuffling on top.

I won't be surprised if we see overall 10-12k cuts across firm
