Potential headcount changes post-Cisco deal?

Been hearing a lot of noise lately about potential restructuring and headcount adjustments at Splunk, especially with the Cisco acquisition on the horizon. Obviously, nothing is confirmed, and I'm trying not to jump to conclusions, but the rumors are hard to ignore. Does anyone have any information, even anecdotal, about whether layoffs are being considered or are already in the works? It feels like a lot of companies in this situation go through some sort of reduction to streamline operations. Just looking for some clarity, or at least to know if I'm worrying about this alone. Anyone willing to share what they might have heard?

It's completely understandable to feel concerned given the circumstances. Acquisitions often bring about changes, and it's natural for employees to worry about their roles. I haven't seen any official communication, but the general sentiment among many seems to be one of cautious observation. It's a period of uncertainty for sure, and hopefully, whatever decisions are made will be communicated transparently soon.

I've been hearing similar whispers around the office. It's tough when there's so much speculation and no concrete details. Many of us are just trying to focus on our work and deliver, but the uncertainty is definitely a distraction. Hopefully, Cisco has a solid plan that integrates Splunk's talent effectively, rather than just looking for cuts. Fingers crossed for positive news.
