I left Verifone 2 months ago because I saw this coming. I've been through the buyout process with a few companies now, and every time there are massive layoffs. Francisco Partners has zero interest in keeping Verifone a functioning company. This type of equity firm is only there to chop it up into pieces. I actually liked what I did for Verifone, but it was always stressful worrying about if you would have a job the next day or not. If you were one of the few that did NOT get laid off.... don't get complacent and "wait and see". I can tell you now, the layoffs are not over. Find another job.

Good for you. I was not as smart and was eliminated. It was time for me to move on anyway. Good luck.
