It’s clear we’re heading downhill onshore. I’ve more or less come to terms with the high likelihood that I’ll be out of a job soon. If only the job market weren’t this rough.

I used to believe it was about performance. Now I’m not so sure. Some people who barely worked got cut, sure, but I’ve also watched top performers get pushed out. It feels random. Or worse.

It’s obvious there will be more layoffs. I hope to have another job lined up when the next round happens.

I know the layoffs are done for now, but I still have this knot in my stomach like I am just waiting for the next bad thing to hit. It cannot be good for me, but here I am anyway. How are we supposed to feel safe, even for a little while, when... — read more 

They posted a ton of jobs in India the same day they made a RIF in the US. How many more times will this happen? How big will India get? Will it just end up being the ELT in the US and a few directors and everyone else in India?

In the most recent RIFs they at least emailed within 24 hours or so of the day it happened. Feels weird an unknown amount of our colleagues were just laid off (unsure of impact but it sounds like a lot) and not a peep. I wonder if they're... — read more 

Read the writing on the wall, there's a huge reason why they are pushing for India hiring and it's not because we'll all be one big happy family. It's to reduce the biggest expense to a business, payroll. Because we aren't organically growing... — read more 

I hope you all land on your feet soon. For those who survive this round — stay prepared. I believe we may see more layoffs in the near future.

Email, phone call, 1:1?

It’s about to get even even worse for everyone.

Damn that Clearlake offer looks good now. Bonus and ltip get less valuable by the day. Time to polish up that resume.

Stock took a hit because investors see right through the ELTs plans. Layoffs are guaranteed this year and next year, just wait until India is fully hired and trained up. They won't layoff until that is complete as it will throw a wrench in those... — read more

Glad to see that the ELT is taking responsibility for a bad acquisition. A ‘nominal amount’ of accountability would go a long way

Hearing rumblings of another round of layoffs affecting some engineering and product folx today. Not sure of the scope yet, hope it's minimal.

Not sure who in ELT cooked up that idea

I’m scared, it was a pretty small miss, right? I was expecting more

I wonder if it will really happen this time?

Rumors are intensifying about layoffs before the end of the month. Any chance somebody here knows more about it?
