Salesforce RTO Mandate Followed by More Layoffs - Anyone Else Seeing This?

So, it seems like the RTO mandate in October was just the warm-up act. News dropped today about another round of layoffs, impacting 4k people, and a lot of it seems to be hitting San Francisco hard again. It's tough to see so many talented folks let go, especially after being told to come back to the office. The official reason is 'need less heads' with AI, which feels a bit like a convenient excuse. I've seen some chatter on Hacker News and Mastodon linking this to offshoring too. It's creating a lot of uncertainty and frankly, a lot of anger. Anyone affected by this latest round? How are people feeling about the company's direction and these consistent cuts? Feels like a pattern of 'cut costs here, demand presence there'.

This is incredibly disheartening. The disconnect between the push for RTO and then these layoffs, especially when tied to efficiency gains, feels really hollow. It's a tough climate for many right now, and seeing these kinds of moves makes it even harder for those remaining to feel secure. Hope those affected find new opportunities quickly.
