The only problem with firing the serfs is there would be no one to get the work done. . .

"put yourself and your company in a good position to succeed. And if at some point they don't want you anymore, you go somewhere else. No nagging and no hard feelings."
translation: Accomplish tasks so that the executives and investors who are not working
make money off your work while you get a mere pittance. And when the executives who don't work make a mistake (like not keeping track of inventories) and fire you to boost the stock price be a good little serf and don't make such a fuss.
Who thinks layoffs are coming after the earnings report?
Memory$ucker, if toxicity on a site called thelayoff.com makes no sense to you, you 100% have what it takes to be at least a VP at Micron!!! Goooo Micron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The toxicity in this forum makes no sense whatsoever. The right thing to do is going to your cube, rolling up your sleeves and working hard and smart. Solve some problems and put yourself and your company in a good position to succeed. And if at some point they don't want you anymore, you go somewhere else. No nagging and no hard feelings. I am astonished how many people come here to complain. If it is so bad and there are so many good places to work in, as is mentioned in below posts several times, then it is not too difficult to switch. Please go, and do so as quickly as possible.
You may be safe when the company lead pull his head from where the sun does not shine and realize that curves and revolving doors are bad for hi-tech companies. Simply because you need nerds and nerds don't like curves and revolving doors and there are places that have neither. But he is stubborn like a burro and won't change his ways. Wanna be safe - look elsewhere.
At what point does someone cross threshold of being safe in terms of promotions so layoffs aren’t a personal concern?
Yes, there are better places.
Micron is advertising on linkedin like crazy and can’t hire.
So typical.
Few year ago the leadership’s response to hiring difficulties was to get more recruiters, not increase the salaries.
Here are my two cents.
Go to your cube, roll your sleeves up. Keep your heads down, update your resume, apply elsewhere, and be thankful when you discover there are better places to work.

Go to your cube, roll your sleeves up. Keep your heads down and be thankful for what u have.
High cost individual contributors are at highest risk. The cost more than just base pay, think: TOP balance, health insurance use (this is a big one as Micron is self insured), outstanding RSUs and of course bonus and base pay.
It is all about how much you cost the company. The value you bring is a small factor.
The safe is M2 and up.
Save them for Christmas!
It wasn't November like other people thought. Personally, I don't think it will be a specific date. I think it will happen next time the stock drops below $60. In the mind of the executives, stock price is more important than keeping people employed. But don't think about that, get back to your cube and get to work. Management knows what they are doing. Sigh...
Who is most at risk and most protected?
It happened before, so I admit I'm worried.
