PPD and DAP layoffs happening. Heard there could be round 2 layoffs in a lot of areas in Oct/Nov time.

Notice from Mark Cahill tonight about layoffs in PPD. Anyone know who/what roles all are affected? Maybe primarily Austin roles, as he was in Austin this week. Could just be a coincidence.

I was laid off this round. Doesn’t look good in the wild. Any advice, or ideas?

I'd like to know if older employees were specifically targeted.

Sounds like higher ups intend to layoff at a scale similar to when the company did layoffs in 2016. Belt tightening has been holding off the inevitable but now does not seem enough. Everyone should be asking their managers for more information so... — read more

Which org do you think will be impacted in 2022? HR? Tech? What are your predictions?

Who's getting cut in March?

From BNY Mellon and now Wells Fargo, seems like Charlie Snarf's MO is cut costs (jobs) at all cost?
