Thread regarding Dell Inc. layoffs

Is this a sign?

Manager whom I've enjoyed a great relationship with over the years is suddenly silent, not checking how I'm doing or what I'm working on. Services Sales.
I'm basically spending my time job hunting, preparing my CV as there is no new opps coming in.
Oh please please WFR me?!

@vsi+1uNyUS6s. can ask a manager, but may not get a truthful reply because they've been instructed not to communicate anything about any pending or future layoffs

If you have had a great relationship you should be able to just ask during your 1x1. I certainly would. It's unlikely you would get fired for checking in on a changed behavior. Ask how they are doing and tell them you noticed the change..

Could be a sign that the manager is notified not necessarily you! 2 years ago when our director left for past 3 months he was just siting around going to golf and joking in meetings and then e realized he got a hefty package and was notified about 3 month in advanced, in RR not Europe!

Go see your doctor, get ‘em to sign you off for stress, and come back in the new year when things have settled down—and maybe Mike and Jeff will have moved on by then. I know three colleagues who are on long-term sick leave but are actually doin’ just fine. Sure, it’s not impossible, but HR’s gonna have a harder time letting go of folks on sick leave, and the optics on that wouldn’t look too good!
Good luck
