Thread regarding Dell Inc. layoffs

More info on ongoing Dell layoffs

Cuts in EMC Consulting, Pre-Sales and Sales groups started 2nd week if August and have been rolling weekly ever since. I know this from a personal point of view and staying connected with those still there weekly. This is reported to continue weekly thru end of October with the biggest cuts yet to come. They are being careful to layoff most senior and highest paid regardless of performance and need but throw in a 30-something/lower paid person into the group (with documentation issued to each affected group) in small chunks so they don't get accused of banding by age or salary.

There are a lot of sales people that they could easily get rid of and won't be missed along with System Engineers

Good! That's what competent HR should do. Small diverse batches but regularly and every week - all ethnicities, various ages, slightly diverse compensations but most importantly do it regularly.
