Thread regarding CA Technologies (CA Inc.) layoffs

Termed!

I just found out that I'm a Day 1 Term. (I'm a manager and my entire team is also termed.) It's still verbal and informal, but the source is extremely reliable and has regular conversations with 2 EVPs.

It's what I was hoping for and waiting for, and I suppose I should be happy. I'm sadder than I expected though, mostly at the litany of dropped balls and bad decisions over the last couple of years that led us here. If only engineers ran the world...

cuts to SSO would only make logical sense if it was being divested. too much going on there to disassemble and still properly support

enterprise security tower is PS, IDM, DIR, SSO, AA, PAM/PIM, API and bunch of smaller ones. OP are you talking MF security or enterprise? I can see a few of these going but many still make good money.

I’m so jealous. I’m stay and sad. I seriously don’t do sh-- yet they keep me, give me raises, more rsu. I don’t think I even work 40 hours a week. They probably think I’m LGBTQ. Wonder if gdl removes them from any list

Any sense if the product is getting discontinued, divested or just put into maintenance mode?

It’s a scary indicator of significant cuts are being made into engineering teams on products with high profit margins.

I'm not going to identify the product because a few people are staying and quite a few affected people don't know their status yet. It spans several locations in NA though. And it is moderately profitable (~40% gross margins).
