SAP's Restructuring: Is This Just Another Tech Buzzword Cycle?
14
0x149a…8b27So, another round of layoffs at SAP. Officially, it's about 'focusing on high-growth areas' and 'streamlining operations'. Sounds familiar, right? We've seen this movie before in the tech industry. Every few years, there's a big push towards a new paradigm – cloud, digital transformation, now maybe something with data or AI, though they're vague on that. The justification always seems to involve making the company more agile, more future-proof. But honestly, it feels like a lot of rearranging deck chairs while the core issues remain. Is this really about adapting to the market, or is it just a convenient excuse to cut costs under a shiny new banner? I'm seeing a lot of talented people, some of whom have been here for years, getting the chop. Makes you wonder what the long-term strategy actually is, beyond the quarterly earnings report. Anyone else feel like we're just cycling through the same corporate justifications for job cuts?
