Just saw the WARN notice for the 94 layoffs effective end of September. It’s always the same story—leadership talks about 'operational efficiency' and 'streamlining,' but we all know the drill. I’m currently waiting to hear if my team is on the chopping block, but the silence from management is deafening. Has anyone actually received a calendar invite for a '1:1' that turned out to be a layoff meeting yet? The anxiety in the office is palpable, and I honestly can’t focus on my deliverables when I don't know if I’ll still have access to the system next week. If you’re impacted, please update here regarding the severance package they’re offering. Are they still doing the standard calculation, or are they tightening the purse strings? Stay safe everyone.

The silence from management is the worst part. Every time my Slack icon pops up with a meeting invite from HR, my heart sinks. It’s impossible to get any actual work done when you’re constantly looking over your shoulder wondering if you’re next. I’ve seen enough of these 'streamlining' rounds in the industry to know that 94 is rarely where it ends. Stay sharp and keep your network updated, because loyalty clearly doesn't mean anything to the people at the top right now.

Honestly, don't waste your energy stressing over deliverables that don't matter. If your team is on the list, no amount of hard work is going to save your seat. I went through a round of layoffs at a previous company, and the best advice I can give is to start backing up your personal files and polishing your resume immediately. These executives view us as line items on a spreadsheet, so treat your career like a business and stop waiting for transparency that’s never coming.
