Thread regarding Kyndryl layoffs

When will the blood bath begin

And by that I mean the impending 10K layoffs. Do you think that people will get invitations one by one OR will they opt for mass exodus via grandiose hands on call?

I am scared shitless. I need $. No good.

Honestly though im worried.

I'd expect the real fun to start only after they coerced everyone to submit positive employee feedback via now open Engagement Pulse Survey so that they can make claims on LinkedIn and the Internet such as they're the company of the year and eployer of choice and so on...

Looks like it Starts today there was a managers call Monday with 150 managers on it and I and all my team have had 1-2-1s booked in for today.

Rumour is it’s basically EVERYONE except one of the seven million VPs they have just hired who seem to do nothing except shuffle decks and talk about “journeys”

Let’s take this mother down good luck all!!

I am at SA unit. No news. Talk to people in Central America and NA. They told me a small batch of RA was happening since April. People are very worried because job market is he-l over their. All companies are using AI as excuse for mass layoff. They expect layoff will get very bad and many Pod or unit will be eliminated in big conference call similar to what happened in 2024. India Pod is not excluded from this round but the impact will likely be smaller.

Targets are to be allocated by Business Unit but this has not happened yet. Expectation is that this will commence in June.

You can expect the RA floodgates to open with a laser focus on culling the high labor cost locations in Europe and North America.

Kyndryl was a festering cancer growth that was cut off from IBM and despite being cut away was able to fester some more for 5 years on its own.

Now its on life support awaiting the mercy ki-l final injection.
