No, Anonymous129371. I did not. I didn't even make it to the accelerated review. I got $20,000 witch was traced to the point I received a little over $14,000. I was given two weeks to try to find another job weather it be IOS or external. The director actually broke the news to me while the HR lady just sat there. The director then got up and left and the HR pig went over done details but I want paying attention. She said she'd hold on to my severance package until I signed sone paper work. I signed it, tried IOS'ing but no luck there of course. So now I'm at home looking for work. I was well liked by everyone and performed well but my corker didn't like me and let it show. Apparently useless management didn't know anther and this person for me out before the accrued reviews even. Feed to the wolves by a coworker. Watch out fire them.

@Anonymous129254, bullshit. I was impacted. I was given two weeks notice to GTFO. My positron was being eliminated, apparently. HR bitch and director gave me a call at my desk to meet in a conference room. There was a blue folder on the table full of Lee Hecht Hamilton nonsense and unemployment information. Was told I could stay two more weeks with pay but was recommended to go home and look for work. Low hanging fruit have been identified. The accelerated reviews are merely a formality. Most have already been identified. This has been in the works for a while. Don't kid yourself. The targeted individuals have been on the radar for years. Now they've been greenlit. Nothing to do with skill. Some of these people are very smart but have been treated unfairly because they are softspoken worth little chance of retaliating. Suckup are safe for the most part, still, some will have to go.
Hopeful H1Bs also.
Interesting. What about the workaday grunts? I would imagine we would be as planned.
Yes, there are confirmed exits tomorrow - received goodbye emails/calls already with last day as Aug 3 (all Eng'g).
Not True, Mr.OP
There will be lot of discussion going on in higher levels after these have been submitted and officially most of the people will know by Mid-September. I mentioned "most" because, it is likely that different locations may know at different times. I am not sure how much will each location be affected.
Mid-September.
