Do “regular” one off job eliminations get offered severance? Worried superfluous PIPs and bogus fires will start next. Our org says we’re done but it sure doesn’t feel like it

How are they notifying people? Is it an Outlook calendar invite? Who is doing the axing? What do they say during the call or the meeting?

For those who got the layoff news: how did it come? Was it a sudden calendar invite for a one-on-one, or an email, or something else?

Trying to know what to watch for.

What does this mean? I now can’t access secure from sparq. No meeting invite yet so am I cooked?

I was speaking with an attorney friend that mentioned he just settle 2 labor lawsuits. 1. A President of a banking institution pronounced am employees name incorrectly for 14 years. 2. A SVP gave praise to ab employee for saving a client relationship. 3 months later they were fired for an unrelated incident. They sued that bank! My point in sharing is I was Job Discontinued in Aug. 2025. It is not Feb 2026 and I have yet received my severance. Citi has NOT MET THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT!!!! When escalated the date keeps moving with NO EXPLAINATION! Seems like i have a case. Just sad I enjoyed working for Citi for over 20 years. What they have done to me and the other 500 people JD in Aug 2025 is unfair and unjust! To the other 20k employees thay will be eliminated good luck!

It has been mentioned that layoffs will occur every other Thursday (Off-pay weeks), but someone said it was EVERY Thursday… I guess we will need to wait for later Today to confirm. Has someone been laid off Today in a pay week? Or out of those days?

First off, I didn’t see any new Cigna Warn notices (in NJ) but I realized looking at the 2025 Warn notice that some companies that gave notice in 2025 that have multiple layoff dates in 2025 and 2026 are not on the 2026 notice. Something to consider when searching company Warn notices you may have to look back on the 2025 if there are multiple dates.

Anyone here hopes for VERP?

Does anyone know when to expect it?

Minute Maid informed UFCW Local 175 about layoffs in Peterborough. Initially, 38 employees faced job loss. UFCW Local 175 negotiated fewer permanent job losses. Only six workers were permanently affected. The other 32 employees will continue full-time work elsewhere.

Real talk: I don’t think Verizon is dropping another layoff bo-b.

They already swung the axe HARD, 13,000+ gone late last year. That was the ugly, one-and-done purge to stop the bleeding and buy themselves breathing room. New CEO basically said “yeah we’re still watching every dollar,” but the massive headcount reset? I am pretty sure that chapter’s closed.

Right now it feels more like cleanup and reinvest mode: patching up the customer service dumpster fire, letting AI chew through the old clunky processes instead of hiring more bodies, trying not to lose any more phone subs to T-Mobile.

If they turn around and do round 2 this soon it’d look panicked, tank morale even harder, and Wall St would eat them alive. I would bet they try to ride this leaner crew for at least the next year unless the wheels completely fall off.

For once I am actually feeling cautiously optimistic. Maybe the worst really is over. 🤞

Heard anything more about this?

Someone mentioned there were gonna be Level 3 & 4 layoffs. What happened to this rumor?

Looks like some prominent people are out

I am worried since many people posted that a few there and there were let go and no WARN Act notices.

I think this is the new norm unfortunately.

Anyone else get the vibe that layoffs are about to happen?

An ugly, but true reality. It's just a matter of time now. :(

I’ve been looking to make the transition from retail to HQ as I would like to use my degree. The recent layoff have me leery but this might be the perfect time. How are things at HQ (OP and Frisco) currently? Any advice?

Was the mobile app broken intentionally at the same time as the layoff, or was that serendipity?

App Info says Android 10 or better. When try to run on 10, it says OS update required. Guess the guy who was supposed to update the App Info was let go. Or will be shortly.

Many lay offs at the corp office and many in the hospitals.

I've hit my limit. The environment is so toxic and the stress is constant. At this point, a layoff with severance sounds like a gift, a paid ticket out of this hellhole. I just need an escape.

Confirmed some at rice creek today.

If so, when would be the expect time line?

We can assume some of the layoff rumors are true. But it would be a huge relief just to know the timeline. Stressing constantly, expecting every week to be the week, is too much. If the job market were better right now, fewer of us would be worried out of our minds. But as things stand, losing this job could quickly become a personal catastrophe.

Yes, with layoff you get severance, but with a PIP you get a year of pay and you might even get to stay after it. Most people prefer to be laid off between the two but I think PIP gives us better options.

I don't think there's much to lose and there's certainly plenty to gain.

Seeing few unexpected role eliminations posts on LinkedIn , was there any update or a flash call about this recently ?

Is it just another rumor or is it coming? most likely to be shared at earnings call if it is a fact.

They sent me a disclosure telling me for 90 days although I am currently within a lay off period I am not allowed to work for another firm.

First question is how tf would they even know if I got another job?
Isnt this illegal?
This place is the worst place I think I ever worked, in a way im glad the lay off came.

Very good source if mine told Sampath was getting axed. And March layoffs are mostly around senior management

Strauss Borrelli PLLC is investigating Continental Tire. This concerns a mass layoff in Barnesville, Georgia. Continental notified Georgia of 235 employee layoffs on January 28, 2026. The firm believes the company may have failed WARN Act notice. Employees could receive 60 days of compensation and benefits.

HR posting fluff on layoff.con

The Salem-Keizer school district plans further job reductions. It is Oregon's second-biggest school district. The district could eliminate 129 positions. These cuts are projected for the next year. The goal is to improve the district's financial health.

I’m reading the layoff on 2/19 will be bigger than the one last month, and it will include Optum at Home staff that are grade level 27 and below. Anybody have information?

Historically it's always been February and August when Dell does their heavy "cleanup" and then with light sweeps in between.

Mav is behind schedule and I'm 100% positive it will not be ready by May - when JC wants it to be lol... It's too important of a project - that will likely fail - for dell to worry much about layoffs on a larger scale, anyways.

Sales has already been given a dog sh-t COMP so clearly the goal there is to force resignations and/or put a LOT of people on PIP's.

IF Dell's true headcount number is 90k, then we are just about there as of now.

The large scale FEB/AUG layoffs IMPO aren't needed anymore as they are super close to their goal now, and there isn't much reason to have 3k+ layoff cycles that make the news anymore.

Some orgs are likely being hit now but, I'd imagine it's far smaller than years past.
