How many in the US? Do we know? Any truth to rumors that sales will be affected hard before Q4 closes?

There are far more than 70 sales people. 70+ in just Xbsne. Is there any accurate info out there? I haven’t heard any layoffs pending.
20% were let go from XBS leaving only 70 on the sales team
XBS let go of a few sales managers and some AE's me being part of them
I love “do we know?”
Obviously “we” don’t.

Why did the piece strike such a chord with older workers? I put this question to one of them. "It resonated," he replied, "because I still see company leadership telling us to give it our all and make sacrifices above and beyond to make the company prosperous — prosperity that we are very unlikely to share in."
The emails I got from boomer and Gen X and even millennial readers were tinged with a sense of resignation — a reluctant acceptance of the way the world is now. Gen Z, on the other hand, isn't quite resigned to that reality yet. From the office to TikTok, they're vocal about their displeasure with the state of work today. They believe that it doesn't have to be this way, and that they have the power to force their employers to change.
Some might call that naivete. Others might call it entitlement. But the older workers I heard from call it something else. They call it about damn time."
Not in a high enough position to say 100% confirmed. but yes Sales will be reduced. Mostly XBS. Direct will have a small handful. it's a numbers game. who performed. but Direct is safer. Not a lot of sales positions, but obviously if you are affected, my condolences.
