Thread regarding VMware layoffs

Any Director+ could confirm if these numbers are true?

From a deleted post on Blind: how many are going to impact on Aug 31st or later:
CIBG - 15%
NSBU - 27%
Tanzu - 30%
What about other BUs?

@luv+1ocp0AEX how do you know? 35 to 40% is a lot. Can't be true.

China blocking the deal. Vmware stock down after hours after the news. None of the cuts are happening. Don't worry.

I personally can’t confirm that , but it sounds in the realm of possibility based on things BC employees have said. Hock intends to thin things out and these numbers are probably just the first round.
