Just saw the news about another round of layoffs at Leidos, around 305 people as of July 13th. Feels like a recurring theme lately. I'm trying to get a sense of where these cuts are hitting the hardest. Was it specific programs, or more across-the-board? My team hasn't been directly touched yet, but the anxiety is definitely building. It's hard to plan anything when you don't know if your role is secure. Anyone affected by this round, or have insights into which divisions or project areas are seeing the most significant reductions? Trying to stay informed, but the official communication is pretty vague. Curious if this is a targeted cleanup or a broader strategic shift. Any intel is appreciated.

This is really disheartening to hear, especially with the frequency of these announcements. It's completely understandable that anxiety is high. Without official word, it's tough to get a clear picture, but often these larger reductions aren't isolated. They can signal broader shifts in strategy or contract wins/losses. Hoping for more transparency soon so people can make informed decisions about their futures.

It's a tough environment when job security feels so precarious. I haven't heard specific details on which programs took the biggest hit, but typically these numbers suggest significant impacts. It often comes down to contract re-alignments or shifts in government spending priorities. Hang in there, and if you have specific concerns, it might be worth reaching out to HR or management for any available guidance, though I know that can be challenging.
