Mother of all layoffs will take place over a 3 month (May/June/July) period
Up to 32% of FTE and contractors will be cut over a 3 month period.. DE wants to slim down. All L2 mgrs and their directors have been instructed to provide an excel spreadsheet of individuals to be cut. Some teams will be completely obliterated.
If your mgr or dir stops saying hi to you, that's a tell tale sign that you are on the list. Some of the planning will take place offsite to avoid tipping off the "victims".
