Sounds like there has been rolling layoffs through some depts over the last week or two, and we all remember what happened in the week following the 4th in 2024.
I don't know what next week holds, but don't forget what we've all done for this company over the years. If layoffs come next week, remember that it's not a reflection on you. Layoffs are a failure of senior leadership and strategy, not the employee base doing the day-to-day work.
Enjoy your weekend, CUSA team! I hope the beer is cold, the grills are hot, the A/C is powerful, and the explosives safe and hilarious! I look forward to lambasting senior leadership next week if talented people lose their jobs to the Ai fantasy and vendor pool. (If it's any consolation, I used a hoard of Canon's Ai tokens on pointless nonsense today because I could and we were told to use Gemini, right? LOL)
Have a good weekend Canon team.
