...of course they are being called headcount reorganizations.

At MVD some people were layed off. They said it was because bad DPM but I know someone who didn't have a bad review and anyways was fired.
Different teams and positions. It seems that Sabre is trying to do it quietly and avoid a bad reputation as happened in 2017 when they layed a thousand in a single day.
More org changez? Does that mean more layoffs? I noticed most of tspd spared last week.
The org changes mean nothing to everyone on the bottom of the org chart. It is just management playing musical chairs. Who cares? Don't even bother to tell us. We didn't care about the past 20 and won't care about the next 20.
More org changes today. Change for change sake, not delivering valuable innovation to crush the competition...
@X4y6g84-6ndt these are probably all in the sales org there waz a big shakeup org shuffle announced for sales functions merging.
Any details on the DFW VPs who were let go ? I heard there were 4
So far, all layoffs in January in Southlake?
To -5qmk,
I was let go in Jan 2017, and I got my VCP in March. Not sure if that's still the policy though.
To GladToGo,
Was there any discussion in regards to you still getting your VCP?
How about MSM? And they still haven't found a replacement for VD!
Does it seem like they are done? I noticed no mention of layoffs in TSPD or SHS? Is that yet to come?
to X4y6g84-3ylc: Yes that's going to happen. What are you going to do? Go and cry...
Wow! Did that make you feel all proud and superior? Now go shop for a white hood or something.
2020: Heldo? Ah yes, I am veddy sorry to hear your ticketing system is not vorking. Have you a put in a tockets? We will look into getting the fix out right aways in hotfix V 1.0.89000 scheduled in Q2 2020.
Are they giving the same amount of payoff?
as it relates to the vp’s section..
if you’re a VP and you have 3-4 reports..
you should have seen this coming...
that said, i dont think anyone in dfw is truely surprised when they get that layoff talk. We are all pretty “beat down” with org change from the last 3 years.
keeping good, talented, motivated and inspirational staff is getting pretty tough these days. Regardless of ratings, the ability to attract or retain has been moderated away. We just dont have the same allure anymore. We do very little new innovation, We arent involved in community, We’ve gotten to the “look left, look right.. im the last one standing point” and thats not uplifting.
DFW backfill will be mostly by hires in BLR and some KRK, virtually none in DFW. DFW will shrink and BLR will expand. US labor demand exceeds supply driving US labor costs high compared to BLR where supply is higher and demand is lower. More to go after reviews categorize the "not meets expectations" staff. Many to go will be good people due to use of stacked ranking of already pruned teams and favoritism that keeps the bad ones.
I was on the list. Worked out well for me as I was going to tender my resignation in the coming days for a new opportunity. Three total from my team. I've heard of several other teams losing 2-3 as well.
TEO and P&T were most hit. I have heard around 100 let go. Many offices were closed and in some instances people were also let go. There is a drive to move to cheaper labor offshore.
Any VPs on here to talk about what they know? Is another mass layoff or move to India coming?
I've talked to 5 let go from TEO yesterday. good people, but I assure everyone, there's good things out there. especially if you are in dfw.
More culling of natives to support the offshore communications.
2 from Software Engineering, 1 from Product Marketing and 1 from Consulting. All 4 in AS.
do you know what BU’s?
4 VPs were let go yesterday.
Seems odd, how many people so far ? Areas ?
Have any more information? What areas so far?
