If your Manager has heard nothing, then you entire team is at risk.

They are going to outsource most of IT to the new AI supercomputer that Musk is building.

These layoffs are unprecedented in size according to unofficial comments by important people. This is a watershed for Dell.

I wouldn’t hold your breath. Managers lie. Yes. Even at dell. One of my AE buddies asked his manager if there was a target on his back and he told him no. And then he got laid off.

Exactly, if your manager isn’t part of the decision making process, it’s entirely possible they are on the list themselves.

There has already been layoffs across engineering orgs across Dell. I wouldn’t listen to your manager.

I have heard there are no layoffs in engineering, it's just sales

Well, sales are laid off periodically on regular basis no matter what . So this really does not count..

It will happen! Managers may be on the list as well if they do not know about or their team is not impacted. And no, we do not sign NDAs. Layoffs depend on team, location, high costs, but not on missing the 39 days.

Invites will start Aug 4th. Hybrids that missed 39 badge days will be targets for cause, meaning no package.

Does it filter down to senior managers? My senior manager says he knows nothing

Anyone that knows supposedly has to sign an NDA, so even if your manager knew, they likely wouldn't tell you.

Lol that's what I thought initially but now I think they just won't happen at all. Maybe sales will lose a few
