Would have to agree with whoever posted about knowing since the second week of December.
I was innovated in the second week of January after the annual year end closure of the company.
It was occurring across pretty much across all divisions of the company.
Was informed by HR rep that was a work force reduction nothing to do with performance or anything else.(Although this reduction was mostly seniority in years at company and in age-male employees in higher pay grades.) Said will receive a package delivered to home with details , when the package arrived it was all dated mid December so people in charge all know what is coming and it will be ugly.

So much sh-t talk in response to the messenger. Directors have known about this since the second week of December.

Some managers know. Some don’t. Nobody below M10 was part of the exec conversation.

@fwnb+1k5zOuSL…..what is your information based on?

You make specific predictions below, e.g. non-sales support, marketing, etc.

How do you know this?

Layoffs confirmed for Feb/March - if you are not helping generate revenue (sales related), you are in the firing line. middle management is being further collapsed to meet threshold of direct reports. Also marketing related roles will be hit hard.

You're not going to hear much for the next few weeks. Most are off until Jan 2 now.

Hopefully there will be some in ISG. Most of my peers left years ago but I have been holding off for a severence package. It is so full of inexperienced micromanager types these days recruited because they go sailing or play golf with some senior crony.

Don’t see any real layoffs. Just people talking about possible layoffs.

I’m guessing that it’s not a good time to apply to Dell right now.

I just saw that two ISG folks I know posted on Linkedin that they were let go during the week. So it is real, although zero idea of the scale.

Any idea what happens to unvested stock if you are shown the door?

Anyone reading this and still working there, do yourself a favour and start looking for a good lawyer NOW because you will need to fight for your severance

They will not treat you fairly

Feels like the more I see “voted best place to work!” ads featuring Dell (the prestigious award Dell bought to cover its tracks), the more likely it is that layoffs are around the corner. And I’m seeing a ton of those ads lately!

Layoff if less 10 years. Coach then PIP if over 10 years quietly. Get rid of old people without severance pkg. MSD goes from 8b to 32b on such practice. Only the richest get richer

MBA Plantation is ensuring they build the pivot tables for the Layoff before they themselves will face the wrath. There are plenty of id--tic MBA's only building Pivot Tables and thinking they are special.

ISG did well, servers are softening but storage held up. CSG is where the problems are so will have the biggest layoffs but it's likely ISG will have a small percentage too
