SABRE swung to a loss for the second quarter as the Covid-19 pandemic has decimated global travel and said recent gains in air bookings aren't enough to signal a shift in the travel environment. The travel-booking technology company on Friday... —  read more 

2019 was the year of "The People" (snicker snicker) What will 2020 be? And will SM and his think tank need to go on a week long luxury junket to figure this one out?

Does this mean Sabre will begin outsourcing to DXC to move everything to GCP? Whe LCCs are not enough—outsource your company! Anthony Maiello is the CTO there (left Sabre a couple of years back.) Can you say conflict of interest and... —  read more 

Has anyone heard when the next round of layoffs will occur and how many will be cut? With the industry suffering for the foreseeable future I'm worried that lack of revenue will put more folks out of work.

Hey execs, Calling one silo a new silo name under a new silo'ed org is not breaking down silos. Breaking down silos would be flattening the org and removing layers of VP/SVP and TEO that blocks devops culture progress. Are you selling to new... —  read more 

Has there been any mention of the retention bonuses for the exec class at Sabre? Just curious exactly how much they awarded themselves while laying off 800 employees

Not true. You can have active Cobra and request marketplace insurance. If your crazy you can overlap insurance and have more than one active. Cobra s—s it is way too expensive.

a coworker sent me this basically if we take cobra subsidy then we can't get insurance on marketplace after. sabre knows this is going to mess over a lot of people. but if we don't take the cobra subsidy they save millions, and if we do then we get... —  read more 

Was spared the recent wave of layoffs but since returning from furlough, can't help but feel that it would've been better to have been laid off. It seems like all the work which was paused during the two months just accumulated, and guess what, no... —  read more 

Could someone explain to me what kind of people ask the questions about org chart or female leaders ratio? Seriously? This is the most important thing now?

Does anyone know which job family provides better salary in Sabre. Software Engineering or Program Management. If both people are on principal level, SE and PM, who would earn more?

Will there be more layoffs once TN and AS merged?

I was furloughed and got called back to work starting July. However, I plan to leave the company in mid-July for personal reasons. Does Sabre payout unused PTOs? If no, I probably will use up my PTO before giving two weeks notice.

GG's org has done very little for AS in the way of selling anything at all for the last two years. Were they affected by the layoff?

Well I just got a call from a recruiter looking for contractors to work at Sabre for NIIT. Ticketing, Check in, and reaccommodation... If that's not some shady BS..

The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential... these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence.

Just curious - of the 800 or so employees affected by recent layoffs, were any of those from the Shanghai office?

I heard that layoffs occurred Monday and Tuesday of this week but is that it for the time being? Have all layoffs been communicated?

I work for one of the TN teams, and we were told that some of our dev teams might end up reassigned to totally different products (where most people have already quit). An incident where some products were sold to a third-party (along with the... —  read more 

What happens to our unemployment payments during the severance.? I'm already receiving payments from the furlough but what if we don't get a job once the severance kicks in. Do we get both payments at the same time?

Does this restructure position Sabre for long term success? Specifically, will Sabre recover faster than large competitors such as Amadeus and Travelport?

Does anyone know if there is still a non compete if you are laidoff and recieving severance?

Did anyone else get 13 weeks severance when they were expecting less? I’m thinking that they might have set a minimum of 13 weeks as my length of service was less and for a my position I was only expecting one week for every year. Can anyone else... —  read more 

To people who were laid off yesterday, you'll be okay in the end. I was laid off last year and while it wasn't an immediate thing I managed to find a new job that is about the same pay but with much, much better work environment than at Sabre. Being... —  read more 

I had understood that the company had sent notifications to all employees yesterday telling them that they were either being laid off or that they were not on the list. That seems to have happened in some locations but not in others. Anyone know why... —  read more 

Are we sure this round is done? Or will there be more today? I wouldn't stress over this so much that it's keeping me awake if economy was in any better state. But being laid off now...I just don't know how realistic it would be to expect to be... —  read more 

I received a call this morning from management. My role no longer exists. We're supposed to get follow up emails from HR at some point.

If you are a very long-time employee, though not your choice, it might be to your advantage to be part of the current layoff. As happened at so many other companies, severance will be reduced before each new layoff.

In my case Mvd, previously on furlough. Having many recognitions in the last years. Any clue of the criteria applied?

Just received an email from DocuSign You are receiving this notification because Sabre GLBL HR has a document retention policy. Your signed documents for 'Onboarding documents will be removed from DocuSign. Bad sign or normal?

I know I will be one of the 800 layoffs for sure. At this point, I only care about if Sabre is going to pay severance package and accrued PTO? Anyone has any intel about this?

I hope it is just a rumour but I am afraid it is not. Lay off are expected tomorrow. Not sure if it would be the 800. Please post your updates/comments

I appreciate that Sean tries, to the extent he can, to be transparent. However, we do not need 8 minutes of lecture about Sabre's financial situation and how bad things are in the industry. No amount of humanizing yourself by talking about your... —  read more

How much do you think Sean Menke will rake in this year? How FAT will his end of year bonus be for cutting everyone's salary, not taking the government backed bailout to save everyone's job and salary? Do you think the executive team deserves any... —  read more 

Would you take a 20% pay cut if someone was to guarantee you job security for next 10 years? If yes (or no), why?

Once again Sabre announces layoffs and then lets us stew for who knows how long before sending out notifications. Why? Why be so unnecessarily cruel? So many of us already have so much to worry about, especially considering everything that's been... —  read more 

Are all employees potentially subject to layoffs or only the furloughed ones ?
