Huntington: 87 positions cut in Jan 2025 – Anyone impacted?

Just saw the WARN notice hit for Huntington. Looks like 87 employees were let go effective Jan 1st. The filings mention various locations like Placerville, Atwater, and San Andreas. It’s always the same story—quiet cuts that don't make headlines until the government paperwork finally drops. Has anyone in the branches or back-office roles heard if this is just the beginning? There was a lot of chatter about 'efficiency' during the last town hall, and this feels like the start of a broader push to trim the fat before Q1 results are finalized. If you were part of this wave, how was the transition package? I’m worried that this isn't the end of the consolidation. Really feeling for everyone involved, especially starting the new year like this.

I saw the same filing and it’s honestly discouraging. These efficiency drives always sound great in corporate town halls until you realize the efficiency is just cutting payroll to satisfy investors. 87 people is a significant number, especially for those specific, smaller locations. It feels like they are thinning out the regional presence to lean into digital banking. My team hasn't heard anything official yet, but the mood in the office is definitely tense. If they’re pulling the plug in areas like Placerville, nowhere feels truly safe right now. Expect more of this throughout the quarter.

Honestly, are we even surprised anymore? Huntington has been hinting at restructuring for months, and 'efficiency' is just code for downsizing. It’s a shame to see people lose their jobs right after the holidays. The regional impact is what gets me—closing or shrinking these specific spots hits local communities much harder than they let on in the press releases. I’d be watching the internal memos closely for any mentions of further consolidation. It’s always a slow drip of news before they announce a bigger wave later in the year. Watch your back and keep your resume updated.
