Thread regarding Open Text Corp. layoffs

another wave of layoffs?

I thought they're done with layoffs for this year, but apparently not.
just found out that two IT people I closely worked with got canned today, both from the UK.

My money’s on a round of US layoffs end of June/beginning of July based on RTO badge reports. Not toeing the 3-day-a-week line? Fired for cause, no severance package needed. And of course right after that there’s the annual Hunger Games of performance reviews and stacked ranking to tee up the next batch of tributes. May the odds be ever in your favor!

@kp That's how it was in 2024. On July 3rd, the day before a US holiday, numerous US folks were let go. Many team leads and senior members all got the boot on that day.

Recruiters in a Center of Excellence? That says A LOT. Maybe people in India aren't taking US/Canada jobs after all.

Does the UK have work councils? Could the layoffs be delayed outcomes from the April 21 layoffs?
