Whole team in CoE Ireland got binned
Walter was very kind to let us know that their reason for firing the entire team was "they were moving to a lower cost region"
Nobody wins
Yes, people who are not laid off might technically be in a better position, but that won't last for long. Those left behind will have to pick up all the work previously done by those who were let go. It will be expected, with no rise in pay offered... — read more

Engineering vs sales vs support roles
Last year it seems that all kinds of business support roles were highly targeted. Given that, does it seem they are much less affected this time? I mean, it's like we're operating on a shoestring with lack of support roles already. So far I've been... — read more

In Germany, where most SAP employees are situated, they have the option to remain unaffected and participate in voluntary programs, while layoffs are prevalent elsewhere. This arrangement seems to grant preferential treatment to employees based in... — read more
I slept for about 2 hours total
This is going to be a "fun" day in more ways than one.

positions effected are layoff?
They initially mentioned effected positions will be moved to AI related roles but now email sent today sounds like its layoff and they will try to help find new positions?
Something is wrong with this picture
All I'm getting when I search for layoffs are possible Tesla cuts (dozens and dozens of links) but nothing about ongoing SAP layoffs. Are we not important enough?
I'm not sure I can take three days of this
Why can't they just wrap it up today? Why does it have to last until Wednesday?
