Are we expecting any more layoffs this week? Looks like the bulk of it was done last week, but if the final number is really 6000 as several people have mentioned, then I think there are still a few people who are to receive their notifications.
Anybody knows more about what's in plans for the next five days?
Bangalore can't be touched. There are plans to move all work bees at SJC to Bangalore.
There probably will be more for Bangalore tomorrow.
The LR in the US might be relatively small, but Europe has been hit hard. Don't have total numbers, but CX locations have been hit with 20 to 40% of the total Cisco population in these locations.
It's nowhere near 6000. In terms of the total workforce it's not a big % it's mainly in the US so no big deal.
Only about 525 LR'd from list I saw in US.
You mean you didn't get twenty years of salary as a signing bonus?
Say what you want about these constant layoffs, for or against but the reality is it is starting to impact CISCO's ability to hire. Nobody wants to come to a company where there is a yearly 'Hunger Games'. Unless you are an exec getting FU $alary and a load of options, the worker bees would rather not be subjected to the constant uncertainty and stress. Having CISCO on your resume is no longer an asset.
