@gk ISG/CSG is the entire company lmao
Eh, it'll probably just be a minor sales layoff again lol. Or as typical, ISG/CSG lmfao. At this point they might as well just get rid of those orgs and start fresh because that seems like what they are trying to do anyways.
I feel like at this point, anybody in sales, ISG, CSG should be ramping up their resume and actively looking for new jobs as often as possible. Those seem to be the popular groups to fulfill the vast majority of layoff numbers in over the last couple years.

@aq Fu-k you and your Boomer bashing, lazy sack of sh-t
I think companies prefer to lay people off during the Christmas season. It makes them feel like Scrooge. They’ll layoff thousands but then toss a few bucks at charity for a little virtue signalling.

OK. Boomer.

It will be interesting. Are they lenient and give Sales until end of fiscal year or cut after this quarter? My guess is they wait until end of fiscal year.
