Yes, its really sad state of affairs. I spoke to my other colleagues in other BU's and everyone feels the same. All of us will leave if we get a chance. Its hard at our age now

We have been asked to identify people from our unit and make a list

Who are "we"? And how did it happen that you are part of this decision making?

We have also been asked to reduce by certain $ amount of capital expenditure, so basically that translates into how many heads you can cut. Cutting in India will mean more heads to meet same $ amount, so main target is US

If you're 60+, you're an easy target. Cisco likes getting more stock options back and not providing any ER! It is the way Cisco treats their most loyal employees.

Just replace "Intel" with "Cisco" and this article still rings true.

Based on other recent posts here, red badge contracts are getting cancelled with immediate effect. I don’t think they mentioned the BU.

There are a couple of other recent points with more details.
