Are we certain it's done? Any chances of more next week?

@a4 b2c and b2b sales were part of the dept that got let go on 1/9
If you get a chance read the article on wpco.com about the Erlander closing it states they will start 1/1 and continue in phases throughout 2026.
Its far from over, I have heard 300 will be let go next round.
Theres more to come, they were just getting started with Global employees. Next will be customer service and ticket teams. Polish your resume and be ready for what they are about to pull.
I can't find any confirmation of the total amount of people let go anywhere, so it's possible I guess. But I agree with previous comment, I would expect it will continue to be the quiet 5-6 agents/week like it has been consistantly the last 1-2yrs and then another bigger one in March. It's just so strange to me that I can't find a single peep in the news or about it being reported to any agency yet.
I am expecting more in March but I think we are set for now.
Thinking back the past week or two there were signs. Things were changed and signs were there. But we believed the explanation given. Anyone who has seen the work from overseas knows what wayfair chose over us. That's the worst part. Engagement is used to hide how little the people in charge think of you. Work on you so if you are next you are ready to move on from them as quick as they move on from you.
I mean there is always a chance, but global service and b2c sales orgs are probably safe for a little bit now, as they would have done it all at once. Other orgs could have their “restructuring” still
