There are no layoffs until at least 2 years into deal. then, all bets are off.
the deal won't even be sealed yet at least until may 2018. then i'd watch for 2 years as they slowly get rid of the smaller redundant/duplicate roles, you won't even hear about these types of layoffs because they will happen quietly and to just a few at a time.
then, 2 years in, massive restructuring and reorganization once they determine who they want and what the prized business units will be.
oh and no telling that in that time that a much bigger fish may come about and acquire SSnC....
live and learn young padawans...
yeah, layoffs happen, they can happen anytime for any reason. you're all one 'black swan' stock market crash away from the next great depression.... no matter where you work.
just do your jobs. you can't change what's coming.... and its a storm no one will escape no matter what you do for a living. no one is safe.
but sure as sh*t some idiot will post that layoffs got rescheduled and cause fear and despair for many reading this forum.
remember... when you least expect it, expect it. that's how life goes. stay out of debt, live within your means and you won't fear a layoff.
~you're welcome.
