Wondering if anyone here has been a part of the 350 LR this week or if you have heard anything about it? Curious if it is a specific group or if it is exec or IC?

All of AppD sales in APJC went this week too.
If AppD engineers have been merged into Splunk and are working on the integration process, are they safe this round of layoffs?
I was part of the CPX -IT group. The 350 was not part of the 7% coming in September.
Yup. I was part of the AppD sales org
Quite a few of the CPX folks that moved into both OPs under Thimaya and IT after ONEx was broken up. A blend of seasoned directors, ICs, emerging talent.
All of the US AppD sales reps, their RDs and their ADs, also a few specialists. SEs and other remaining folks have been merged into Splunk along with the AppD product line. I don't think that equals 350, but it was a good chunk of it. They basically cut them early so they wouldn't have to pay to send them to Vegas. The same will likely happen in other countries when their local labor laws allow.
Jonathon kept an “advisor” role. Guess who was given a way to hang around until his shares and options vest?
They don’t follow the same rules as the rest of us.
