In fact it is the time to rank manger based on his/her caliber, technical ability, taking right decisions, building a strong product. In fact most of the managers, vps, evps should be fired.
directors and senior directors are the worst. All they know how to do is push JIRA tickets around.

THIS !!!
“ We have had to rank performance for all employees in the last few weeks.”
Who will rank the performance of an employee? Based on what?
- how many time employee agrees with him/ her ( yes boss) ?
- never questioned on his decision even it was wrong ?
- never protest when his/her manager poops on him/her ?
- being spineless ?

"..rank performance for all employees..."
There is nothing like ranking employee performance based on tasks over which she has no authority.
Join the labor union, create one if none exists in your country. Unless of course you are in India where labor organization is forbidden and people treat each other like trash.
Having attended the CDO-All hands..It didn't seem like managers/VP's/Directors would be laid off. Wow..what an amazing show we had yesterday.!!
Will be happy to see most of the managers and VPs and EVP gone. It is time to rebuild the management and technical leads from scratch. Yes, it will take some time but will be good for F5. Also they should cut senior HR personnel, they are also part of the dirty games.
Why long tenured employees?
Because they know what's going on and they don't tolerate BS.
Why long tenured employees?
Managers are safe. It's the long tenured sheep that are targets
We have had to rank performance for all employees in the last few weeks.
Many of those whose only job is to move tickets on the board (it's not their job anyway) and distract teamwork should be terminated. Good for the company. Good for teams. Good for products.
