Share what you know so we don’t have to be caught off guard.

How many layoffs should we look forward to in the coming months and years? We used to have at least some job security, what happened to that???

What are the future plans for T&D in Edinburgh? The fact that we are currently based in a WeWork office, which is a co-working space, does not seem very promising..

There’s no break from the tension. I can barely focus at work, and I can’t really rest once I’m home. This could drag on for weeks, maybe months. No one can function anywhere near normal under these circumstances.

This used to be an amazing place to work. Now, you can feel the fear every day. People whisper, avoid eye contact, and no one wants to stick their neck out. It’s exhausting just being around it. I think full RTO would cause me to quit just so I can avoid having to deal with that throughout the whole week. Could be just my location, though.

Folks, if you are so worried about being terminated, then you already know the answer - you are a goner. Those that are confident in the real value they bring to COP will survive.

It's been two weeks since the acquisition, and while things have been running smoothly, no major announcements have been made to employees. I sense a calm before the storm and am preparing for what's to come.

It’s such a weird feeling lately. Every two weeks we’re all looking over our shoulders. I’m still here but it feels temporary, like I’m standing on a trapdoor.

What do you all think? I’m a bit worried, but then again, we’ve learned that nothing good ever seems to come out of these situations anyway.

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

Has there been any discussion on how long this designation will last and if all people outside hubs need to move or just where offices are closed? This puts people with that status in limbo prolonging the decision.

I’m really hoping they give us a chance to leave voluntarily because I would take it immediately. Things have been so tense and uncertain, it feels like the best move to step away before the stress really hits hard. Having a way out would be a huge relief and give me a chance to reset and find something better.

Global payments employee here. Many of the employees here still do not know if they’re staying with Global payments are going to FIS a decision has been lingering for some areas. I’m curious on your end at FIS what’s the word on the street? What have you heard regarding TSYS/issuing and the employees that will be coming to FIS.

Anyone else feeling like things here are getting weirder by the day? Too many different impactful events and statements are happening all at once, and none of it feels right - it’s not just business as usual. It seems like the company’s in rough shape, and you can feel the tension everywhere. People are way more on edge. Even small announcements get blown up into rumors because no one really trusts what’s going on anymore.

Long story short, there is going to be significant changes, at least the mail suggested that, anyone's got any clue??

Use your brains people. If RTO was truly for the reasons DE said - would they still hire off shore? Will LTI contractors and other vendors be relocated to US? How about teams that have members in multiple locations? What about Poland office? Don’t fall into illusion. You are being asked out, not to return to office. It’s a trick.

Any idea what EM is currently doing ? Any action at top?

So is this a lie as well? The fact that the CFO is gone, there is no 12 billion XE servers backlog, otherwise they wouldn’t have left.

Those who work in sales, are you selling the PowerEdge XE servers like hot cakes or not?

Did anyone else in CenterWell get invited to an organizational update call today at 12:15 pm EST? Are there layoffs coming? does anyone know

Lately it feel we would be the next one…

Any input?

I haven't seen/heard anything hitting EMEA just yet and its just a waiting game which is not ideal

Why is Elevance Health stock tanking again? Did I miss some news? Does this mean even more rifs in fourth quarter 2025? Why can't they get this ship up right again?

What is going on Mr Tan. Come clean.

There is a lot of anxiety in the Austin campus but haven't heard of anyone getting impacted by the lay offs. Are there any Austin employees affected?

Management hasn't said or done anything to indicate layoffs in Marketing are over. That probably means there will be layoffs. I have no evidence they will, but I'm preparing.

I have heard a rumor on Reddit that there are more layoffs.

Has anyone started interviewing for positions in HPE yet? Sounds like we'll need to interview for new jobs within HPE.

Does anyone have any information?

Are we supposed to continue living in constant fear indefinitely?

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.

Why are people acting like this is done? Many more will lose their jobs before this is truly over. This is, at best, a short reprieve.

Any idea? It’s really inconsiderate, to put it mildly, to keep us completely in the dark. We’re all stressed out of our minds, and the only “info” we have comes from each other, half of it nothing but unsubstantiated rumors. Way to leave us with our livelihoods hanging in the balance, while we have no clue what’s really happening.

Rumor is the FRA is going to allow for less frequent signal inspections. Crossings will go from monthly to quarterly inspection intervals. Yes this would free up time for signal maintainers to work supporting maintenance of way which is very much needed, but as always this is causing fears of further headcount reductions to the signal dept. What this doesnt address is the constant need for additional headcount for trouble calls. With current staffing levels there still isnt enough employees available for trouble calls.

Federal projects are in potential danger due to the funds are been cut, close to 1000 Employees situation in deep worries

It appears that another major reorganization may be announced this week. I’ve heard it could affect benefits—possibly pensions in particular. That said, the source isn’t especially reliable, so it’s difficult to know for sure.

friday, i saw someone ask if anyone have intel on the difference between this opt-in severance vs what they might offer if you get laid off in nov.

sure it might be a d-mb question to some, but its a honest one. ive seen d-mber things that're being posted here all the time, why would this site proactively deleting just that

Also heard multiple people voluntarily quit due to the RIFs. Is this true?

Are they offering any severance or pip? It may be my turn at the year end point so just want to plan ahead. I just hope I get a few weeks severance and bonus for the year.

The marketing research company has allegedly laid off 1,000 employees who worked at its Gurgaon, India office, located near the country’s capital city of New Delhi, information shared by Reddit users on the r/Gurgaon subthread showed...

The stock also snagged price target cuts from many analysts, with UBS downgrading it to ‘Neutral’ from ‘Buy,’ citing the company’s soft contract value growth, the Fly reported. The firm stated that the company now appears to be a 3% organic grower in 2026, down from the previously expected 6% rate. According to the firm, this will limit stock upside.

Wells Fargo cut its price target for the stock to $225 from $345, citing a wide contract value miss in the second quarter. The firm based its toned-down expectations on macro uncertainty pressuring the selling environment, as well as cancellations and non-renewals of federal government contracts.

It noted that 40% of federal contracts would come up for renewal in the second half of 2025.
