Thread regarding Seagate Technology Inc. layoffs

Condolences to my friends at Seagate

From an ex-Seagate employee, so sorry to hear of yet another layoff. Wishing you and yours well wishes and a speedy recovery. For those still at Seagate, I encourage you to look elsewhere. Seagate management has you in it's sights. You will be targeted. Your days at Seagate are numbered. Take the plunge and find a company that actually values it's employees. Seagate has not valued you since the early 2000's.

For Seagate Leadership: Shame on you. You have spent the last 15 years working tirelessly to undermine the hard work of thousands of dedicated employees and boy oh boy have you succeeded. Your track record over the last couple decades is one of lost business, bizarre direction, broken and unrealized promises, and the slow drip of destruction you bring to working people and their families punctuated only by regular bursts in destructiveness when ruining people's lives. All the C levels are crooks and in it for themselves. But hey, don't let the struggles of the little people stop you from cashing out those stock options. There's money to be made after all. Screw the little guy.

Seagate used to be an employer of choice. Now they are just an employer of chaos.

Sometime board are blind, there lot of people still wasting company money even being announced layoff. yet they still stay in company till sep,oct,nov&dec with getting 1.5x monthly salary. Who able to audit what they are doing up there ? why ??? waiting for RSU to sell off on Sep ??

Should control this waste & reduce further layoff OR give focal to those retain in company............ Board ...... wake up now...... open your eye & see.

Manager of Seagate treat their employees as expendables. That is seagate way.

I worked for Seagate for over 20 years. Was laid off in the 2009 debacle. Seagate gave me a year's worth of pay, and a 3 month stint at Right Management (great company) that prepared me for the job search. Now I'm working for a medical device company and not worrying about when the guillotine is going to drop.

Sounds like the managers of Seagate of today would be more likely to drop-kick your nastyass on the way out the door. Probably because the managers realize their time is limited too, and they're scared. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

I had the unfortunate experience of working for Seagate for the last 4 years....a so called big company that buys up relatively successful smaller businesses.....then ties all the new employees hands behind their backs with the Seagate way politics....then wonder why they start failing.......
