Just saying, as someone affected by layoffs, let's cross fingers so the deal financing goes sour, and some of those execs retire a bit less rich http://www.marketwatch.com/story/dell-hits-snag-in-bid-to-raise-45-billion-to-finance-emc-deal-2016-02-11
Then have cuts done at the top, renew leadership and make this company great again!
What is unbelievable is that Michael Dell must have forseen this when he took dell private. perhaps he was counting on another incentive or tax break or something. Kind of funny now that he doesn't have he money... oh wait he does... he wanted to go private right? let him pay for tge deal personally. haha.

what makes you say that and, think it would be Q1 or end of the layoffs
That department is a goner
It depends on how much money you or your group is making, and does Dell has same kind of people who can do your job
Anyone think the Educational Sales roles is going to be safe?
There will be far more layoffs if the deal goes through.
Even if the deal goes sour and it falls through, this doesn't mean that there won't be layoffs.
The worst that could happen to EMC is if Dell's financing for the purchase of EMC is more expensive than planned. In that case, Dell will make more cuts to EMC than planned, which means more layoffs than planned.
