Hi everyone - not necessarily a speculative post on what may come post the earnings call however sharing a dose of care to those reading this. LRs for the most part are decisions made on the role - not the individual. So, should you be wishing for an LR and it does happen, then I wish you all the best. Should it happen unexpectedly for you, take some time for self care, rewind and reset - we all deserve it. And, be assured that you will be OK, and perhaps even better than OK (well, from those I have spoken to in the past at least). Let's all support each other everyone. LR may come, it may not but let's all check in each other as the world needs it more than ever.

Thank you for the encouragement good to see, hope for the best then continue from there whatever happens.
Its not a petty rationalization to conclude that in the long term, the survivors are the real victims. Not just at Cisco but in any type of failing org. The longer you stay, the worse your overall outcome is.
Thank you for the caring words! Even though I figured out my own impact in advance, it is my first ever layoff and was initially rather painful. Getting to a better mental state thanks to all the support and also just socializing more. It helps a lot.
Unless youre the only person in a role, it's both role and talent.
What’s there to talking about LR at Cisco? Decent Cisco employees already have jumped ship. No talents left at Cisco.
