In Bratislava, Slovakia IBM laid off 520 people (including mothers on maternity leave) - 40% CIO, 25% Q2C. Last year it was 350 people. They laid off top performers, strangely incompetent managers are n e v e r touched by any RA.
What good can anyone expect from a USA corporation and USA ''values and culture''?
In God we trust, but we do Satan's bidding. USA and workers' rights - what is that???
Check Slack status I think it will say discontinued or something.
Check workday to see who is absent on April 11th and 12th
IBM never shares those numbers. Just like they won’t share how many US employees are still standing. A week after my organizations layoffs, the new VP had a brief intro call , showed off a new org chart which included everyone on the RA list. What a waste of time and a slap in the face. Where is the transparency We hear so much about?
In CIO team US employess were RAed and replaced by people in other countries.
It's 40% of all the shared services groups under JoAnn Wright .
Check bluepages in a month to see who disappeared- that’s who was RAed.
You don't unless they tell you.
I think you meant to say 10,000 That aline’s with the extra 1 billion savings that the CFO referenced (10k worth of head count equals approx 1 billion)
I was told by HR manager that 100,000 were RA’d this month.

Slack... Sametime is history.
I guess it depends on what you call a "team", but in my day you could tell real easy who was gone by who no longer attended conference calls, were not included on e-mail distributions and who did not appear on Sametime. (Is Sametime still a thing? What does IBM use for instant messaging these days?)
Look to your left then look to your right. They're gone. Now look behind you cuz you're next
Depends on your team dynamic and manager. We know.
Big bonuses for the executives then as the personnel cuts will flow right to the company FCF.
Wow 300?! I am from Southbury/NYC team. We lost a dozen as well.
If that is not announced by the manager, I think you would need to wait to see who is staying. By the way are you from Slovakia? I heard 40 % of all CIO team got laid off. It should be some 300+ employees.
