Thread regarding Wal-Mart Stores Inc. layoffs

I was let go today

I was let go. I realized it last night when the email came. I almost packed up my stuff this morning. The reason that they stated was they reorged the company and my job had gone away.

I could reapply and look for 60 days while I was technically still employed. I pushed it and said I wasn't waiting until 12:30 to be laid off. So they did mine early and I was home by 10am. My team has people who do little, visit associate store more than they are at desk, take 3 hour lunches, abuse the PTO system, but are still there.

Our manager has even been linked to having a relationship with a subordinate she promoted These are the people they kept. I say have them. I am better off.

Legacy application ops was obliterated this time. Many good people lost. This is a serious post, their jobs are being done by vendors and GTS in India now. These vendors like Infosys are reaching out to leadership saying they Can be Walmart's l2 and l3. (IE: optical/tle) eventually they will take over more of l4(development) then they already have. Yesterday I saw so many vendors swarming around those huddle rooms peaking in at who was losing their jobs. There are so many vendors in that building, they know they are taking American jobs and are constantly networking with each other to better each other. Of those 250+ let go yesterday, maybe 5 had Indian names, I'm sure it was the ultimate shock to them because rarely do Indians get laid off.

It rarely makes sense. Sometimes I wonder if they just draw straws. I hope this makes you feel better but the more it happens the less it bothers you. well it does...but the good part is there is always someone out there that needs you...that's what I find...
