Thread regarding Oracle Corp. layoffs

Sun is DEAD

I was RIFed, System group, Santa Clara CA. Major layoff. I was in Support. So if you expect support for Sun products it is highly unlikely you will get any. The Oracle Monkey is off my back.

Solaris/Sparc support is horrible. Seems like all the good ones bailed earlier.

That's not allowed at this site, anyways - no naming names and sharing personal info, it would only get deleted.

I posted the original thread.

Everyone cried at me that I was a shill

Everyone cried it was not true

It looks like I was correct.

You will be seeing similar cuts coming from HP and IBM in the coming months.

Agree. Please provide your dept supervisor and employee ID to prove this is indeed correct.

What kind of support org were you in? HW field delivery, remote SW support or backline development support?
