EH, you can't rebuild with layoffs and you flying around! I had faith in your; but you proved me wrong...

And nobody should be flippant about it. We all have very good reasons to be anxious.
Do you think they will start letting people on STD go?
Effective 4/1 , every reps account assignments will be slimmed down to 20-40 accounts in total. The remainder will be moved to inside sales. Expect more layoffs, compensation will be moved to net new client acquisition (make the same but you have to convince new businesses to work with this horrendous business - in other words , make a lot less). Good luck everyone. I feel sorry for all the great customers that will no longer have the coverage they need to support them. This is embarrassing.

I saw the F-150 Guy very nervous this morning.
So the F-150 Guy said that after the performance reviews are done, the gigantic LYOFz will occur.
Good luck.
Omnicom PR agencies and leadership moved to a new New York office. This relocation follows Omnicom's acquisition of Interpublic Group.

They indirectly announced layoffs, and eventually it will. Why to rush and go into legal problems. They will announce results and after all calculation and potential legal issues, they will do layoff. May be it can take couple of weeks.
I saw some comments about how there is a push from leadership to restructure teams into a 30:70 - U.S.:HIH split.
I wanted to see if multiple people can verify this.
I know HIH is growing and they’re cutting US FTE but how true is the 30:70 split? If it’s true, then that’s all of us finished in the US
Anyone know what to expect for Optum Corporate LCRA roles? Something is brewing but everyone is being secretive.
Anyone have the total number for today?
The contract will be revoked and all the people servicing FT will lose their jobs, that's how this farce is going to end. They keep firing experienced people for a bit of saving and hiring unqualified juniors in their place. This is not a valid strategy and both the clients and FT feel that, and it's already happening. I wish it wasn't so but it will happen sooner or later.
Let me explain how it works here. First, actual performance is irrelevant. The people who work the hardest and produce the most are seen as threats, so they get cut, while the mediocre ones who keep their heads down and do not rock the boat stay. That is the goal: mediocrity across the board. Second, if you refuse to bow to a manager who has no business leading, you are done. They will find a way to get rid of you, and when there is no legitimate case, they cheat. They will lie, plant stories, and turn your own team against you. I have seen it happen to three people, good people who simply would not accept abuse. This is not an exception. This is the entire system.
Wondering how many of you all in here are from the core Nexient company?
Really miss the old days where stuff was running so much smoother, Nexient as a whole was much better than NTT and layoffs? Pft, unheard of from me in Nexient.
Please tell me I am not the only one in here.

We can easily dispatch another 30% and it will still function. There are too many coasters, old timers sitting there doing nothing. Too much dead weights. Americans are lazy.
A $300M reorg charge will be taken. I take it this is for more than just the distribution center closures that were announced.
AI isn't taking people's jobs. Here's what's really happening
Oracle's layoffs show that the people losing jobs aren't losing them because AI can do their work. They're losing them to money spent on chips and data centers

I got an offer, but I'm a bit scared to leave my current job even for better money because, what happens if layoffs start and I'm one of the newest hires? I'm just wondering how often do layoffs happen and if I'm among the last to have joined, how much danger would I be in?
I spent years at Humana and genuinely loved chunks of it. The mission, the work, some of the people. But the last couple years were rough. The workload became impossible, the appreciation dried up, and the manager we had, I've never seen someone less suited to lead. He ran through good people like they were nothing. I went to management repeatedly, told them I was overwhelmed, and offered solutions that would help everyone. Each time they found a reason to say no. It was either too hard, or too different, or not how we do things. Eventually I left. Now I'm watching what's happening from a distance and all I can say is I am so glad to be out.
With so many contradicting stories, I have no idea what to think anymore.
How do we keep haw a declining stock prices. All my ESPP is worth nothing. Putting money on my bank account at 0% would be worth more
PwC is laying off approximately 1,500 employees from its US workforce. This represents about 2% of its total US staff. The firm attributes these reductions to historically low employee attrition rates. Layoffs primarily affect the audit and tax divisions. PwC is also slowing new hiring and internship offers.

It’s not just me. Employees have stopped working. As the rumors continue, people are sitting and waiting. Why invest any effort at all if you’re gone “Tomorrow”. If Oracle wants to resume normal business , they better move past the layoffs rumors and make it happen. At this point workers have stepped off the playing field while they await word of their employment. Productivity has ground to a halt.

At least 4 director level employees in FAE let go as of today. One-and-done cut or are they going to drag it out over the week?
The 5th Avenue Theatre announced layoffs and program pauses. Approximately 14 staff positions will be eliminated. The theater faces a $7.5 million deficit from the pandemic. Rising costs and declining subscriptions contributed to the shortfall. A fundraising campaign aims to address these financial challenges.
