I don't know if it's true for everybody, but some of my teammates already received their emails. Excellent engineers with years of experience. We're all still in shock.

For the guys ranting about companies betraying Corporate America: don't worry, they are also cutting EMEA and APAC jobs.
True. Cutting American jobs and moving the work overseas. In a few cases Vets are getting cut which is a blight on the companies that do that. Corporations gobble up all the Government contracts they can get and then cut the people who sacrificed and risked life and limb to protect us all. Corp America, that's just plain wrong and sends the real message of who and what you are and what you stand for.
IMO and in my observations, Corp America is perfectly happy to let others fight and die for them as long as they can make a few dollars in the process. There's much more to strengthening the nation than just giving money to charities while at the same time cutting jobs that enrich our non-american competitors - and in many case enemies.
You want to make/keep the nation strong and gain respect? Keep the jobs here and resist the urge to harm the nation and its people by hurting their present and future lives and prospects. Be something and someone the nation can be proud of instead of something that's cursed and is a cancer. Corp America - you are smart and capable. Please find a better way and protect the nation and its people. Respect us and we'll respect you.
