Thread regarding Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) layoffs

More layoffs coming again at HDS!

Just saw this WARN from EDD after management shake down at HDS in Santa Clara:

http://www.edd.ca.gov/jobs_and_training/warn/WARN-Report-for-7-1-2016-to-03-10-2017.pdf

Over 100+ layoffs this month. HDS is bad- they keep laying people off in California and hiring replacements in INDIA.

I am a top sale person at HDS and I quit...there is no future products..there will be parts of the company that just disappear..they will not last 24 mo...it is being run by a bunch of HR people that are idiots..they gutted the core of people that saved this place back when they got out of the mainframe business.When they let Randy Demont walk the place went sideways and has not recovered.Bad purchases of Bluearc and other idiotic companies ruined a GREAT place

Lot of Americans are laid off, while their job functions remain intact and are being filled by offshore contracting companies for cheap labor....Go Figure.....What happened to the American corporate loyalty?

Jobs cut in legacy projects. If you don't know cloud computing, your in trouble. Many of the support staff lost their jobs.

Looks like there were another round of layoffs at HDS 2 weeks ago, according California's WARN Act notice.

Pretty soon those buildings in Santa Clara will be empty.

Even folks in India got laid off. HDS is not hiring in India as far as I know. Just wanted to get the record straight.
