What teams were impacted during this round of layoffs? I wonder if they targeted seniors and high-payers to cut down on the costs.

The primary people “phoning it in” are the C-suite.
So far the majority of the people that I’ve seen get let go are people that were not performing or carrying their weight. We lost a couple of good people, but overall we had people that were phoning it in for years that needed to be gone.

My friend got old, victim of layoff
My manager got old, victim of layoff
I got old, victim of layoff last Tuesday
In all cases “old” was 59 years old. May seem a long way off to those younger but time flys. Just wait…….
Fairly random. Partner managers, SE's is what I've seen. I suspect they just play random bingo and whatever number comes out becomes the chosen one.
There were several senior team members that I know of that were impacted. I am also aware of a few younger positions that were cut. I was surprised to see many roles from South America and India that were impacted. Most teams that I work with our operating on a skeleton crew.
They did. My boss told me they wanted to do away with senior roles.
Obviously a huge gap there.
Technology Innovation Office (TIO)
What is TIO?
If you are looking for high cost (no value) resources to ax look no further then TIO. I believe they have not been “touched” in the past yet it is fertile ground for culling.
Security Team got it.....one of the more critical areas in both selling, Partner Support and encryption installation....GONE! Awesome....Billy you the man
