Thread regarding Dell Inc. layoffs

The main criteria for being laid off

If Dell continues to cut the best employees and leaves the ones that hardly work at all, then this company is being self-destructive. And it looks like that this is exactly what is happening, the good employees are the main target?

If you're a white male aged 50+ and in a senior role, get ready for that unplanned meeting with your manager and HR telling your job is no longer needed. Do yourself a favor and record it.

Spreadsheet management strikes again. Older or skilled people are more expensive and get cut.
The other common Dell dynamic is that the people who are actually talented quickly realize they can get paid more to do less in a less toxic environment elsewhere since they are in demand.

This leaves the lowest skilled people who can barely use a computer and do-nothing managers as the only ones who stick around for long.

Once upon a time Dell actually incentivized those talented people to stay, but now they’re a cost to be cut.
