WD had a large RIF on 11/15... usually that means Seagate is soon to follow with a RIF.
How soon do you think our RIF will be? Will we have a merry RIFmas or a RIFsgiving?

@2hdi+1pDzKelA And you believed him?! Hahahaha hahahahaha. What a maroon.
Yeah, a lot of hiring for cheap summer internship. Replacing high-paying experienced engineers with cheap fresh graduates or interns to pay dividend and interest for the debt.
No more fun and future in this declining industry.
Just walk through the corridor and smell.
I'm getting heavy recruiting calls and emails from companies practically begging me to apply. I'm not worried even a little about getting a RIF-mas gift from Seagate. If anything I smell panic in the air at Seagate about improving retention to stop the attrition that hasn't stopped. People are still quitting at a high rate.
Total of 250 positions open in LinkedIn. All these RIF look like rumors
@4yub+1pDzKelA small is relative and depended which geographies
The WD layoffs last week was a small one, not big.
No worries people Heavy D and The Gang are working on our salvation at this very moment. No Holiday Vacations for our crack shot Executive Team, they are working up a new plan to raise big time Cash! Happy Holidays to all Current and Former Gaters.
Well the Nov RIF predictions were damn rock solid on this site. I'm kidding, they were not true as usual. But, let's do come up with another date shall we...and let the 11 pin heads cr-p on Seagate for another month...omg Seagate ruined my life, what ever shall I do...Oh my.. Let the games begin kids...yawn
