So while many thought this week would be the big reveal of who is staying and who is going this is what I learned. Note I work in two HUB cities so this information has been gather by both SF and NC insights.
- ) Big push is coming April. One rumor has it as mid April during the earnings call, yet a Sr. VP stated to me that it will be end of April.
- ) Even though the employee handbook has a severance setup, some folks might get nothing at all. Additionally not all folks are going be given the option to re-located.
- ) A lot of employees are not aware of this layoffs coming. Literally there were to major All Hands this week and not a single person asked in the Q&A if there was going to be layoffs and if so when. I was on one of these calls and was going to ask but since I dialed in was muted and didn't know how to un-mute.. I think it was *7 not sure,
- ) There will be ANOTHER round later this year, based on performance and company needs and direction. This one will be just as bad as the remote layoffs happening now.
Mind. you all my info has been gather by third parties internally, and I am not high up enough to know the truth, yet it looks like everything from bankers to tech are going to get hit hard. One rumor has it as over 7k folks will be laid off by Wells fargo this year.
