The start to this begun about two years ago and it is now just gaining traction. Hopefully anyone who is forced to leave is ready for it as we have been getting warned for about ten years now that this is not a place people will be retiring from. To the individuals receiving Tech pay and up be prepared to take a 50% pay cut unless you want to move or get into the medical field.
Bad thing is if a bunch of people get let go all around the same time there will be tons of people putting in for the same job when they only need one person.
I thought the large cuts were happening at the start of the new year and that Micron was going to be nice and keep everyone paid during the holidays?
I left two years ago and things have really been different for me after spending more than half my life with Micron. I could not be happier to be gone, but really miss everyone I worked with except the liar managers.
Good luck but you are going to be fine! Take some time off and enjoy yourself as it might be a long time until you get a day off once you get hired again.
Bumped from @VA3ek2O-djxx for being on point.
