Rumor has it that that next 'brooming' could take place at the beginning of Feb and Mar. Anyone has more info about that???
Severance?
know several who got the axe that have 20+ years, how are they paying out the severance pay - one lump sum, bi-weekly?
Group Layoff in KRK from Legal perspective

WARN was posted
A WARN was posted on 11/18/2013 that had 15 people getting laid off on 1/24/2014. Obviously more than 15 were laid off. I did see mention on newspaper of a class action lawsuit against other Texas companies that failed to post, but wonder if an... — read more

Article in Dallas Morning News Mentions Online Posts about Layoffs
The Article doesn't specifically mention this website, but I'll bet that is what it's referring to. http://bizbeatblog.dallasnews.com/2014/01/anonymous-online-posters-bemoan-jobs-cuts-at-sabre-holdings-in-southlake.html/
Wow! Nobody's Safe!

Does anybody know if any managers (and above) were laid off today? Or is that coming tomorrow?
Got the ax at southlake 1/8
Got the boot at sabre hq. Early meeting with your manager, then you're "allowed" to go home the rest of the week with pay. Not sure how many others affected.

layoffs in sabre bangalore
nobody will escape the cuts
Poor execution
We knew this was coming, but the whole thing could have been handled better. I've seen some long timers made leave under 15 minutes, they did not have enough time to say farewell to their peers. The communication was poor, overall, I'd give it a C-... — read more
Sam would say: enjoy your passport to freedom!
why are you signing agreements? they could be sued for group layoffs in Poland.
Going public
All of these 400 layoffs are about going public this year. layoffs will be a mainstay when they go public. You will see this every quarter when they need to make the numbers. In krk, Sabre pays lower than comparable companies.
my story (krk - contributor developer)
The layoff procedure was really shocking. My manager set up a meeting titled "1on1" but it wasn't 1on1 as a HR girl was with us. After quick talk and signing agreement I formally had 0.5h free time to eg collect some private data under supervision... — read more
KRK sitrep
As far as we know, in KRK most contractors from Luxoft and Infolet will be working till end of the January. It's confirmed for 4 people i know - but their companies was prepared and expecting this (I know Luxoft was...) so at least they have jobs in... — read more
Best Places to Work?
Wasn't Sabre voted #1 in Best Places to Work in Poland not too long ago? I guess now it's Best Place to Get Laid Off!
KRK
Yes, there was an ambulance. It's a standard practice in such massive layoffs we've seen today. Around 70 people were fired in KRK. I think it is not the end. Many experienced and tenured people lost their jobs without any offical announcements and... — read more
Confirming KRK

In KRK it was ugly today... We even had an ambulance waiting 'just in case' nearby. Maybe a coincidence - we will see tomorrow and day after.
To all gone and all left, from the "A World Full of Lies" song: We stand beneath resounding rafters, The walls around us are bare, They echo back our laugher, It seems like the dead are still there. So stand to your glasses steady, This world is a... — read more
Bloodbath (BLR)
It's a very sad day, I am still around but many dear friends were terminated
Another BA gone
We were very understaffed and overworked. Critical work for the business but I was still laid off today. God knows how they will cope with the projects now.
Laid off
3 of the people from my team were laid off. I had one friend I know that was laid off too. I've been told its a 20% cut across the board, mostly PM and BA as they were overstaffed significantly.
pm
laid off today at HDQ
Avoid using a Sabre computer to post otherwise you can be traced guys
KRK and BLR have been affected so far, better luck in HDQ/MVD/BUE..
