What's up with SAP, seriously? UK employees have been left in the dark since late January 2023, with no news on the supposed layoffs that have been looming. It's like we're all sitting here twiddling our thumbs, waiting for something to happen. And... —  read more 

Does anybody know the number let go in Ireland? HR have just stated they won't be announcing number of employees affected.

All the time we are expected to do more with fewer resources. Whether people quit or are laid off, one thing remains the same. The rest of us will be expected to pick up their work. Heavens forbid we backfill a position or two. I wish my manager... —  read more 

What happened on this call? One of the speakers was a new woman who is called the "Head of Global People Success Services" Nobody has ever heard of this person. Or why she's here. Better yet, why do we keep hiring these C-level box-checkers? ... —  read more

Will this affect big tech? Anyone know how it will affect SAP?

I am in support I was lucky enough to be in an office that was not affected. When the question was asked how will we keep up when losing people. Come to find we were told we will be hiring many people 20 from Brazil and Budapest. Disrespectful to... —  read more 

You know things are not going well when people in India are getting hit. Employees there are among the cheapest so opting to cut them means things are not looking well for any of us. I'm betting you we'll be seeing more layoffs in the US very soon... —  read more

I was browsing this website and there doesn't seem to be quite a lot of info regarding layoffs in the UK. If there are any news, I appreciate if they can be posted in the replies.

Has there been any update, Till when are other announcements due ?

While some, myself included, think of the job market as dismal, others are still optimistic about their prospects. I would like to hear from those who say that it is not so difficult to find a job now. Obviously we don't have the same... —  read more 

Has there been any update, some teams in the uk and Germany have been told they are not affected. When are other announcements due ?

I'm devastated. I thought I'd be okay since I had been working on leaving for months and landed an amazing offer just to have it retracted. I haven't been in the job market for a while, is this something that happens often? I don't know if I can take... —  read more 

Dealing with management here is essentially the most difficult part of my job. Why do they think that something will be achieved by whipping harder on the remaining staff? The only thing that can come out of it is a greater attrition. Though... —  read more 

Do you have any info on how many employees are planning to be fired in UE and when it's going to start?

I have seen many, many rounds of layoffs at SAP and nothing has changed. There will always a new batch of blue kool-aid drinking sheeps joining. They heard that it is very easy to slack off at SAP, get free food and take naps anytime in one of the... —  read more 

I was gutted when I found out. I’ve been the biggest promoter of SAP over the years. After almost 20 years for them to do this when let’s get real. The other tech layoffs gave them an out. I truly believe if there were no other big companies doing... —  read more 

Has there been any layoffs in operations teams. Very strange lots of senior managers moved roles or disappeared in January. Must of been tipped off. What is happening to all the LACE and sales support teams

After such poorly conducted layoffs, which, among other things, is reflected in their negligence to give employees all the necessary information, I think it will be very difficult, if not impossible, to restore morale among the employees who... —  read more 

How long are we safe for? A month? Two? It used to be that we shouldn't worry about layoffs for a year at least when a major round was done. Those times are long gone, though. I'm not even sure anymore if the rest of this month will be without... —  read more

The layoff process has not impacted SAP’s ratings on Glassdoor. While enjoyable to post here … please provide your reviews on the site. Perhaps a way to hold SAP leadership accountant for this cluster.

This layoff process should be reviewed by our outside directors. None of our board member can be proud of how this was handled. If they are, their contracts should not be renewed or better yet - fired.

I am not impacted, but I sympathize with everyone who is and I wish you luck to get new, better opportunities. I started looking for a new job myself, because I am more than disappointed with the way the layoffs were managed here. The story I... —  read more 

Laying off employees turns out to be infectious. And that makes it all the more insidious. Indeed, these tech layoffs (as well as a recent round of media layoffs, I should add) are what the Stanford professor Jeffrey Pfeffer, an expert on... —  read more

If these are not performance-related layoffs, then what are the criteria for who gets notified that they are no longer needed here?

To those who were laid off today, what does your severance package look like? And when is your official last date? (for payroll and returning equipment etc.).

Looks like if your in BI in the Lake Mary office ...gone.

This layoff is a bit different if compared to the others we had before - this one sees to be more wide-spead, it's not targeting specific pockets or groups. I may be wrong but this one feels different. It'll be interesting to see what kind of impact... —  read more 

A coworker got one earlier today but I didn't. I also saw in another thread that another person got something similar. Is this layoff-related or could it be something else? We are all stressed and can't wait for this to be over. Our productivity is... —  read more
