No posts on this but there are many lingering questions about possible layoffs at Dell Software that will come in 2017 and maybe in 2016. How many folks will be impacted? Nobody knows! What about locations that will be annihilated? Nobody knows! Levels and pay-grades to be hit the most? You guessed it correctly, NOBODY KNOWS... All what we know is that Dell Software has issues and that we'll continue to see layoffs happen all the time.

LOL!!! You might be one of the 2k or 3k. Good luck.
Well after 4 years under the "leadership" of Swainson and his CA lackeys, the writing on the wall is pretty clear. He succeeded in turning 5 billion in acquisitions into a 2 billion dollar org what Dell now wants nothing to do with. If you think Francisco is going to watch the trend continue, then you really have no idea how VCs work. They're looking to increase their investment, not decrease. Thanks to the DSG "leadership", sales has been AFU for a couple of years now so two things have to happen - sales has to increase and costs have to be cut. They're going to have to increase headcount to build things like HR, legal, ... so the only way to cut costs is to cut existing headcount. All that is left is R&D, sales, and marketing. They need sales and marketing to grow a pair and bring in some revenue. That only leaves R&D as a place to cut. Given the expansive portfolio of products, that means that any products that don't meed a profit bogie number are on the block. Math is math and numbers don't lie.
