Honestly the layoffs have not really stopped for years now. Everyday I hear of another handful of folks let go. The larger ones are slated for late July/ early August. This time around, big day layoff dates have not been leaked. Like I said though, they are constant, drip drip drip, the boom a wave.
Pretty much what @THdXKBC-lch said. Viacom needs major layoffs very rarely because they are taking care of it throughout the entire year. Everybody working here should know by know that job security does not exist at Viacom.
