Just saw the news about another 400 layoffs at Cisco, specifically targeting California. This is getting to be a pattern, especially with the timing right after those revenue reports. Feels like a slap in the face, honestly. Anyone directly impacted or know which departments are being hit this time? I'm in the Bay Area and the whispers are getting louder. It's tough out here, especially when you see companies posting record numbers and then turn around and slash jobs. Trying to get a sense of the scale and if it's more widespread than just CA. Feels like the 'restructuring' narrative is just a convenient excuse to cut costs, even when the business is doing well. Makes you wonder about job security long-term, even in a supposedly stable company like Cisco. If anyone has insider info or has been notified, please share (anonymously, of course). Trying to prepare for the worst.

Heard about this too. It's brutal seeing these kinds of numbers repeatedly. Makes you wonder about the long-term stability and strategy. The focus on California feels particularly pointed. Hopefully, those affected land on their feet quickly. Just seems like a tough economic climate for tech right now, regardless of company performance.

Yeah, the California focus is definitely a talking point. Seems like they're consolidating or restructuring in a big way. Hard to get exact details from the outside, but the frequency of these announcements is concerning. Definitely a grim indicator of where things are headed for some parts of the company. Keep your ears to the ground, I guess.
