Curious if canteens are ISO 3103 complainant? Why not be proud of that? Big banner, put label on HDD drive. Seagate now ISO 3103 complainant! Sales increase here and in China greatly, UK as well. Not sure impact in US.

Needs to be investigated. It wouldn’t be the first for seagate.

Time and time again I see a very good company with a very poor management strategy: Cut the bottom line. But how far to cut? .... Just keep cutting until something breaks. How smart is this? As a long time employee and technical contributor, I feel... — read more 

Follow lay off in July. DH will be scaled down to 28 employees.

The OKC location is set for sell if it's not already sold and the whole call center will be outsourced to a 3rd party company located in Dallas. The management is still lying about it and telling people that the moving boxes they are distributing are... — read more 

Can we just cut the dividend already? Maybe just maybe we could get rid of some of our debt if the unrealistically high dividend was brought down to more realistic heights. As it stands, none of us will see a raise or a promotion for the next decade... — read more 

Most employees are very unhappy here. No raises or promotions for anyone ever is pretty demoralizing. I've been at the company 5+years and I don't know a single employee who has been promoted during that time. Seagate has become a very poor company... — read more 

Heard SRC Penang only will be there for sometime till the migration complete and the servers moving to AWS. Then after SRC will be eliminated following with Shugart? Anyone heard about this and by when management planning to execute this?

Heard rumors that they are going out of business.

If the Glassdoor ratings of Seagate are to be believed, workers do not like working there. I'm a younger (20 something) programmer looking for work. I used to think Seagate was a cool place to work. Now all I read is RIFs, layoffs, clueless... — read more 

They are slowly losing business. Not worth holding it.

I saw on Fox and Friends that Bill Watkins is coming back to Seagate, in a bold power play to stymie enemies and amaze shareholders. Don't know what the response from me and other employees will be. Depends on if we go back to building spinnie drives... — read more

Anyone know when the next layoff is going to be? Awhile back on this site, someone mentioned May or June. Anyone else hearing about upcoming layoffs?

How pathetic is it that Seagate actually puts in the effort to post on this site in it's own favor posing as happy employees. What are they freaked out about? Must be a lot of truth on this site for them to actively promote it's own propaganda.

Should be a huge cut to R&D come June. Hamer shipping, nothing else in the works for new development. Should save the company a ton of money to give out to the shareholders. A lot less overhead as we produce current product lines until the end.

Just when I was hoping for early retirement, I'm told Seagate can't afford to lay anyone off right now because they can't make drive fast enough to keep-up with demand. This trend is expected for at least the next couple of quarters. Guess I'll just... — read more

Check out https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Employee-Review-Seagate-Technology-RVW19338302.htm Seagate is a sinking ship (spinny drives are so Last Decade). Read the writing on the webpage. Get the fcuck out now. Or stay, and get HAMRed (get it?)

Going to major surgery for lot of divisions. DH will be eliminated except some service related.

Any updates over there? What are the big themes nowadays...

Will there be any layoffs in Cupertino IT in the future? I heard that the folks remaining there are some of the most talented, brightest, and hard working people.

Anyone disagree with me?

I've been notified yesterday and will be dismiss end of March

If everyone would just contribute 110%, we could layoff 10% of the work force and get a larger focal and bigger bonus. C'mon guys. Jeez.

Are you all excited on the pfofit Sharing pay out?

Has anyone head reliable info about layoffs in Minnesota? Are the Minnesota sites the only Seagate sites that will still be here in 2029?
