#rumor

What are you guys hearing today?

So much anxiety.

As an OI worker nobody has really said or heard anything at least in my little corner, albeit my team has never had layoff whispers or issues since I've been here, so now I'm really curious since OI has been mentioned a lot here.

Isn't OI quite a big sector? What kind of roles are we talking here?

good luck folks!

No rumors? Nothing at all? Strange! I'm also curious on how WFH is going in USA, in Europe nothing changed as far as I know (many peer competitors still offer 3 days a week here, while AIG has only 2)

Has anyone else heard that Doug is going to Apple to assist with their in-house AI program? A few people mentioned this during a meeting late last week.

Just heard at a party last night that they are getting rid of even more people next week than they did last week. My understanding is that the economy is about to make a very huge and very drastic U-TURN after a HUGE announcement about someone in power.

Once that happens, all heel will break lose and Brian will have to accelerate his RIF plans.

This came from a very trusted source!

So now I'm hearing they will be announcing layoffs after the Nov 4th quarter results global meeting. This is out of oklahoma city call center. How viable is this rumor?

What is your best guess on when Geoff and his BOD get bounced? Rumors are flying (again)

So all the Big Swinging D!cks got together this past week to figure out how to get rid of more people or whatever and they had a bunch of guest speakers talk leadership to them. Interesting list:

1. Andy Jassy - who runs a company notorious for sweatshop practices in the warehouses and highly political PIP and stack ranking culture for management.
2. Marissa Meyer who basically took Yahoo out back and shot it after she took over - though granted it was already in deep sh!t but she certainly didn’t help.
3. Steve Ballmet. Yes he built a nice arena for the Clippers but MSFT stock took off after he left and his Clippers are implicated in potentially one of the worst NBA salary cap avoidance schemes in decades. Apparently he and Stankey were having a grand old time according to my VP.

And these people were telling our leaders how to lead. Watch out over the next few weeks

Supposedly it was going to be a day or two affair. Now it looks like this will drag on for more than two months, and that’s if we’re lucky.

What is the latest with APLA and when will it disband?
I'm really concerned about CS and the role they will hold when this change takes effect?
Asking for a friend.
Thanks

Rat has a history and quite a wild history.. look what is going on with ELV SLT

Is it at all possible the rumors are wrong? Target still has openings listed on indeed. We’ve heard nothinb(not that we would before they wanted us to). Is it at all possible? I still don’t think they are going to want even more bad pr. Or am I just wishing it?

Exited last August via layoff with VSP. I often return to this board to see what’s happening. Hearing rumors of Oct 23 reminds me why I am so glad to be gone. 20 years in and glad for my gracious exit over a year ago. Bounced right into a new career I love and banked the entire enhanced severance. For those wishing you could go, maybe the 23rd will be the exit you don’t realize you need. Good luck everyone.

Anyone know which departments are laying off soon?

What's happening in the rest of 2025? How about Q4? Any cuts planned?

None of the gossip I’m hearing makes much sense. Some people say no more than 1,000 drivers nationwide took the offer. Where I am, they’re actually looking to hire more. In other places, people are apparently complaining about too much OT because they’re understaffed. And yet, everyone keeps talking about more layoffs coming. I’m honestly confused, and scared for my job, no matter how much I don’t like it.

So there is an All Employee call on the 23rd. So i guess that means there wont be a layoff on that day? Who knows

Get ready!!!!

Can anyone share when is the next layoff? Is this a monthly activity?

random team meeting scheduled for next week, no context given. curious if anyone has heard rumors

What sites getting whacked today? Who got the winning numbers?! Hows BARNHART still open
