SAP went all in on HANA, and is clearly reversing course now. What went wrong? 1) A zero response DB - not true at all 2) HANA doesn't need any DBA/Basis people to run - not true at all 3) HANA runs on any platform/OS there are no restrictions - not... — read more 

No rumors at my location in Germany, but keeping in mind the state that we’re in and the fact that US locations got hit recently, I figure it’s just a matter of time before the layoffs spill back to Europe again. Has there been any word on potential... — read more 

After several of my posts deleted, i am not coming here anymore. I can get these information from twitter or any public website.

I know of 2 SAP colleagues who sign up for the JP Morgan Run, just to show that they are enthusiastic about the company. They were very upset at the lay-off but had to show give their best smile and be good corporate citizens. It’s a hard life when... — read more 

I have been following this thread and noticed many posts are being removed. Is SAP monitoring this site? Is this site deleting posts at their request? Just curious if this is a free speech site as claimed or not?

Any indication on what offices could be hit next? Judging by everything It seems that these layoffs won’t be over any time soon. So, any indication who could be next on the chopping block?

I see that posts here have slowed down - should I take that as a good sign that layoffs are over for now? Or is this simply calm before the storm and we are about to be hit with another round or three? What can I say, the last month at SAP has made... — read more

I’m at a US location but it would be helpful to get info on other worldwide locations as well, as SAP layoffs have the domino effect and they tend to spill to the US in any case, sooner or later. So have any layoffs happened, and if they have what... — read more

Have you all had a situation where your paystubs or W2 are still reflecting the acquired entities. i.c. Concur, or Ariba or SuccessFactors. For which company will you list as your employer in the Unemployment Claims ?

Any layoffs in the US? Any layoffs, period? Can we consider this round completed?

We have been loyal to this company, working on projects and skills that are only of value to this company; almost none of us were looking outside or constantly interviewing or fighting amongst ourselves for the s-xiest of trendiest projects. And now

Not naive to think that layoffs will ever really stop, but there is a physical line under which they can’t lay off otherwise the company wouldn’t be able to operate. How close are we to that line, and is their goal realy to operate with the bare... — read more

Is there anybody? From what I've heard and read, if I'm laid off i'm royally screwed. Finding a job will either be impossible due to my age or the pay will be (at best) half of what I'm making now. Is there anybody out there who will actually be... — read more

I would appreciate if SAP people posted if layoffs are continuing and if they are at what locations? Any opinions whether cuts will continue throughout this week and are they gonna continue being worldwide?
