What are people expecting next week, 5% across the board ?

Please start planning for whats coming in the next few weeks. I have seen whats coming and Im very sorry for anyone in sales.

It's a tense situation here. Can't they be a little more transparent and spare the employees some uncertainty because no one can be very productive and focused while worrying about whether and when they will lose their source of income?

Decisions have already been made. Just prepare your personal finances and be applying elsewhere proactively. Control what you can control, accept what you can’t. This is very much true. People who are constantly worrying about their name being on... — read more 

I work for Dell in an anonymous location doing an anonymous job (sales is all I will tell you), and the reason for the upcoming layoffs is nobody's fault but the company's. Corporate, Ent and multiple other sales teams received absolutely... — read more 

Nights are gone in cork until at least September. But if there coming back after that isnt garenteed

It’s definitely happening. I am RSM in EMEA. Q3 Week 2 is the plan. 8-10 percent total. Every area being hit incl Corp, pub and Ent. More likely your direct manager is not aware of names yet. VP and sen Dir are across. Meets will be scd during Week... — read more 

Lay offs happened 18/19th of July in Glasgow, are there more expected for August? Atmosphere is very hush hush and secretive which is annoying.

As the title says, I am ex Dell, not afraid to be truthful here. I was a 2nd line manager in Nashville with 17 years of service. I was cut in Feb and have already landed in a great role. Not here to troll, but what’s up with every post about ex Dell... — read more 

I've spoken to a number of managers who all told me the scores were abysmal across the board. I know that it's possible to massage the results but how long more are they going to espouse Tell Dell within the company? I know it's not a terrible place... — read more 

Am I the only one dealing with this?

If layoffs are coming in August, why is nobody talking about them like they were in February

Are there any updates on UK business layoffs today, was it just Glasgow ? Will there be additional cuts in other offices, like Cherrywood or London ? Any information on the severance package for this round of layoffs?

I try not to worry ahead of time, however, it is hard not to be anxious when everyone is talking about layoffs, and I have been unsuccessfully looking for a new job for months. I am aware that person can panic under pressure and start imagining... — read more 

While some have already been happening quietly in the background, larger cuts are happening on August 7th. 10% in many businesses. This roulette game has been exhausting and demoralizing. I hope for anyone that gets affected by this, that you land on... — read more 

I hope all of you are doing ok. Almost 10 years with Dell and these constant shakeups are tiring. I'm assuming we will get news the last week of July. Just coast the rest of July and see where you end up. Nothing you can do about it at this point. If... — read more 

US sales and customer-facing field are all on the list. Good luck everyone

That's the feeling I get from reading some of the posts here. Or is it not so? I, on the other hand, think that I will forget that I ever worked here as soon as I manage to land a better offer.

I'm starting to get worried because I haven't been able to get anything better for months now.

Hi there, My name's Yowei Shaw and I'm a journalist working on a story for the podcast This American Life (www.thisamericanlife.org) about layoffs, after getting laid off myself from NPR... — read more 

This is for factual and not fictional reporting about layoffs Where : Western :Europe. What : 3 pre-sales were let go today.

I got my WFR in May and have not been looking for work since. Dell management are generally inexperienced and unqualified for their role right across the board. It's hard to take orders from id*ts who just understand buzzwords. I am so glad I... — read more 

Everyone is talking about cuts. While some are looking forward to being on the list, I am still interested in whether it is possible to do anything in order to make my job safer and avoid being on the list this time? I would definitely not like... — read more 

Talk of WFR is gathering pace , i doubt it will be as high as 10%, maybe another 5%?

Is it that corporations (Dell) are truly looking out for our general well being with the new return to work model? Could it be the very issue of mental health as to one of the top reasons? Never mind the increased costs of travel, the stress of long... — read more 

Seems to be a grumpiness in the office.

Please tell me that these are just malicious rumors about upcoming big redundancies. I'm really worried, but I still hope it won't come to that.

I devoted myself to looking for new opportunities because I don't see that anything will be better here. At the same time, I don't think I've ever been more ashamed of having Dell on my resume. I'm probably not the only one? I don't know how... — read more 

That would be the next evolution of this ignoramus policy right? Honest question for Marty McFly: you see anything about mandated return to office in the future?

Hey guys, My recent message was deleted. I took the Delorean out. We are clean thru August. Dell stock will hit high of $66 then. Enjoy your summer and vacations.

Other than horoscopes,a feeling in your gut,a conversation that you overheard in a toilet cubicle or your friends Aunty who saw a sign that the virgin Mary herself sent does anybody have any actual information on WFR in the coming months or we expect... — read more 

Good thing my director shared the regional stats on the tell dell - so now I know who scored me low. Anyone wana take bets on who's going to go on the next wfr ?

Its been dead silent the last month about RTO after they were talking about it almost daily.... Not a peep from MD either about RTO since it was announced which is very odd since he always comments to the team after big changes like that. I wonder... — read more 

Oh how ironic and so humanlike to -knowingly or unknowingly- have created our own obsolescence and eventual demise via Ai. Our arrogance as a species has no limits.

Sometimes the direction you are going is not the direction that everyone else is going

Doesnt sound like a company about to make massive layoffs. Has the VMWare deal gone through yet as that is a wad of cash waiting for an owner?

I just read that a survey showed that tech workers are willing to give up on high salaries and take a pay cut amid mass layoffs. I think this is nothing but bullsh-t. It's so easy to fake the results of a survey it's laughable. And they've been... — read more
