It appears some big news may be announced this week. I’ve heard it could affect teammates. That said, the source isn’t especially reliable, so it’s difficult to know for sure.

Rumors of OMNISSA selling
There are rumors based on things Shankar said that KKR will be selling part of OMNISSA. Could be an interesting next several months. I for one would welcome any opportunity to get out from under this leadership and KKR, both who have proven they have no idea what they are doing
October is coming..
I'm telling you, in a month from now there will be less. Headcount IRIF. Book it.
Imperial Oil to be bought out ?
Rumor has it that IOL LT went to Houston to receive new set of instructions on what to do with their company. Quarry Park HQ is most likely being closed down and staff being moved to downtown (and hundreds of job layoffs in calgary).
Some people saying Exxon will take a full stake in IOL to enable this cut.
When is the next round ?
Any bets on when the next round is going to be? After q4 earnings come in low? Turnaround falters and tariffs bite?
10% reduction (RIF) in October
Rumors are flying around that we are going to have an across-the-board 10% RIF in October. Tariffs and reduction in demand for aerospace products are driving this RIF.
“Project Windmill”
It’s coming.
Infosys parallel team
I’ve heard that an Infosys team is working in parallel with current employees in certain areas, with the possibility of eventually replacing them. Has anyone else heard about this?

Big layoffs next week?
I heard Technology is doing huge cut next week. Can someone confirm?
Any truth to this regarding EMEA?
Today's rumour is that oracle is taking to EWC mid September. Was not told who the source of the info is. Likely no action in EMEA until the end of the month or October then?
OP: @a4+1k4ca9jw4
Layoff-Optum site reporting
They are saying layoffs Mid Sept for some and Mid Oct for others on Optum side...shared services, wellmed, ect. What does it look like for UHC/UHG? Should we be expecting the same. The Steve H email makes me think we should.
Cairo office / ISG to be shut..
Got wind from AMER manager that its apparantly got to do with the minimum wage increase introduced by Egyptian government back in March of this year. Anyone else heard anything?
Blowing Smoke
Every single person who posts about coming RIFs are just blowing smoke. You all know nothing. Nothing. You're like those psychics who continue spewing predictions until one of them comes true so you can go, "See?! Seeeee?! I was right!"
Rumor that September 10 is a big D day!
Rumor has it that Wednesday September 10 is a major cut day at state street. Internal jobs don’t exist , defcon one is upon us. They even took away and froze bravo awards. Ron should get one for being cheap and treating the employees like cr-p but hey the stock price is fine. Hang in there Flock!
Organization Charts
It's rumored in our office that the blank organization charts will be rolled out soon. Is anyone else hearing similar conversations?
Off site Upstream Leadership meeting with HR!
Rumor is there were offsite meetings yesterday and today between ULT and HR! Is something huge coming?!!
EM shutting down chemical business?
Heard unverified rumors about a planned shutdown of (some of?) the chemicals units at Fawley and Antwerp. Anybody has insight on this?
Rumor: RTO 4 days p/week in 2026?
Has anyone heard anything credible about the bank forcing people back to the office 4 days per week starting in 2026?

10/7/5
Anyone know what means in regards to RIF plans?
Conoco to layoffs 25%
November is around the corner, if it isn't 25%, its bound to be something above 1% for ENB.
Safe to Christmas?
Do you think we are safe till Xmas? We can worry about 2026 employment next year from 1st January.
Anyone know if the Right Now folks are still there or did they get chopped?
I saw someone say the CX group that got moved under Chris is untouched so far, but can anyone still at Oracle comment about the Right Now product folks? Wondering if they were protected or not.
Coming to a performance review near you soon
Lloyds Banking Group will put thousands of its staff at risk of dismissal, with the UK bank’s lowest performers set to be told their work must improve or they face the axe.
The bank plans to overhaul how it manages the performance of its 63,000 employees, according to people with knowledge of the plans, with about 3,000 people deemed among the bottom 5 per cent set to be put at risk of dismissal. About half of those could lose their jobs, the people added.
This is how the 10% in bp will be managed out with the new performance review system.. starting next year (the article also says the bottom 5% will be put on improvement plans..hmm where did i hear that before).. nothing new across industry and the above is wat cheaper than current redundancy programme.. don't say you were not warned !!!
What’s with the rumors about more layoffs in October?
Or is this going to drag on all the way through the end of October? This whole thing has turned into a drawn-out ordeal. And of course, not once have we been told what’s actually happening or what the plan is.
MEA cuts
I’ve been told by manager SVP, that despite great results in MEA they want to cut 25% jobs here this fiscal. We literally have no Presales, nor bdm here already.
The key is to skip gitex and save on everywhere. He said we’re fine, as we are support, but who knows.
Offshoring
Chevron Employee here who just went through all the layoffs here. I bet they are going to send IT and other functions overseas. If you are tired of this garbage contact your congressman. It might not help but they need to hear about it.
Does anyone have insight into why TM "resigned" so quickly?
Seems fishy that one would resign and the rumor mill has been going crazy that there was some shady things going on (theft, lying, etc.). Usually leadership at that level has more of a transition and sends a fair well note.
Just curious if anyone else knows more.
Anyone heard rumors about Medicare Advantage Plans ending in 2026?
Health insurance is a rumor mill anyway-- it thrives on it.
Has anyone heard anything similar? Remember a few years back they were all gung ho about the 'single payer' plan?
Just checking & testing waters. I wonder if that is the unspoken reason behind all the chaos?
PK posted on IG
PK finally posted after her long vacation a picture of 1515 broadway with the moon man outside (current) on her IG stories.
I’m thinking why post that if you’re on your way out? Maybe an indicator she’s not on the way out?
So what’s coming?
What will we be finding out 9/12-9/15? Leadership saying more to come but haven’t said what.
Any Layoffs in JAPAC today? Australia / GBU Team?
Any credible news about GBU layoffs in JAPAC today? P6,Unifier and Aconex?
Bluexp cancelled
Is it true BlueXP is being ki-led? Does that mean the team will be laid off?
Sales Engineering about to get cleaned out?
Can anyone confirm rumors? Shifting to partner led technical resources from HPE?
