Thread regarding Sungard Availability Services layoffs

Layoffs at Sungard this week (October 9)

Supposedly, the layoffs begin this week (of October 9). That's the buzz here in HQ, and morale is really low. A big portion of sales will be targeted. Sadly, they have nothing to really sell because the products are slow in development and unstable, so non-existent. Product development itself is struggling and will also be targeted. Meantime, Sungard AS can't attract top talent because it has no money and no stock options to offer as a private company. It's onwards anyway to filling roles in India and Costa Rica, which our customers don't like dealing with. So it's all a death spiral. This place is out of control. Good luck to all.

Anybody knows more about the supposed layoffs this week? It's already Wednesday, and I haven't heard anything.

The rumors going around in my office are saying mid-October. Whatever that means. But then a person I know based in Thornton said he heard around end of October. I think last year there was a layoff around this time frame.
