Honestly, it makes me furious. It’s embarrassing and even disgusting to know I work at the same company as these people, even if we’re not in the same department. During such a tough time, when so many teams and colleagues are heartbroken while handing over their work to leave, there are actually some twisted individuals in these anonymous threads gloating over it.
Everyone in my group (at least on the surface) would never stoop that low. The reality is, our roles are different, and whether we bring value really just depends on the company’s strategic direction. When our work no longer aligns with where the company is heading—and let's be real, that’s often completely out of our control—we get laid off. It’s a helpless, sad situation for everyone involved.
So to whoever is gloating right now: no matter who you are, you are the absolute worst, and incredibly stupid. You’re nothing more than a number that just lived on the survive on the list this time.
The people who got laid off will use their talent to land even better jobs elsewhere. As for you? You’d better pray you don't get cut, because you’d be left with absolutely nothing.

@OP Facts. I think its going to bite them in buttock
@aa
You are absolutely correct. The job market is worse than 2008/9 and interviews are brutal. I was laid off in 2024 and am highly skilled but unfortunately no luck so far.
@b9 but look what it has done to your brain...

OP, its the internet, the people you loathe probably don't even work at Cisco. As far as landing a better job, good luck. The job market is brutal. For tech it is worse than the 2008/9 downturn and we are only at the beginning of the cycle.
