Are we having layoffs this week ?

I didn't use to have any issues with the thought of being laid off because I always knew finding a new job would be relatively easy. Plus, a decent severance is always a plus. I don't feel that way anymore. Try applying for jobs now and see how many... — read more 

Mostly cost centers and support teams. Severance will be given, 2 months + 1 week per year.

Please stfu. You are in every thread complaining about "ex laid off employees” (which makes no sense) We know it's only you commenting in every thread because you don't know how to spell. Find another hobby bro because Dell is not paying you enough... — read more 

Dell needs to trim down to survive. It missed the AI revolution happening around us. Microsoft is one of several, including rival Google, betting that this generation of artificial intelligence will transform, not just productivity software but... — read more 

Look, if you're on this board you're obviously worries or at least interesting in potential layoffs. Share what these golden parachutes, or lead turds, have been. What have you seen colleagues get in the last churns, and what do you think people... — read more 

I'm glad that people are better off then they were here, but at the same time it's kind of sad not knowing a single person who regrets leaving Dell. At least I don't know anyone, do you? It seems that nobody who leaves here would ever come back. — read more 

Isn't it obvious how the company is trying in every way to get as many people as possible to leave voluntarily? People can no longer tolerate pressure, being underpaid and general lack of respect.

Google announced 6% layoff today, will Dell avoid all this ?

I'm still hesitating whether to accept a slightly worse offer or stay here. I'm feeling tired and under a lot of pressure here, but on the other hand, starting somewhere else from scratch after so many years here can also be very stressful.

let me lay out facts: a. layoffs can be any date. Does not need to fall under any company and/or Myan calendar. b. preferably not on Mondays or Fridays and before noon is the golden rule. c. big layoffs usually are preceded with an announcement... — read more 

Is the 25th the day ? lol.

what's are next stop?

People are hoping that there won't be layoffs even though everyone has a hunch that there will be, because it would be very strange for Dell to be exempt from the layoffs that are happening in the industry. Managers use this tense atmosphere to... — read more 

I take it it must be the 25th now for the dreaded email or call?Me thinks some people are telling tall tales and its all paranoia. Maybe I may have missed the call this round?

Nothing happening at Dell... we'll see.

What happens coming wednesday? Nothing. What happens next Wednesday? Nothing

Just fake news and predictions

Are layoffs happening next week? It's usually on a Wednesday in my experiences Has anyone any insight into next week ?

Will layoffs start this week

Dell companies can now turn into museums. It's over and out with Dell.

I've been applying for new jobs, to leave DELL, but it seems like it doesn't have a good rep. Lots of odd questions, or people passing over my resume. Anyone went from Dell to FAANG?

I always take rumors with a grain of salt but they should not be ignored. Recently, there have been many rumors floating around that major layoffs are imminent. Perhaps it's best to polish your resume and start applying elsewhere, just in case.

Dont see Jan or Feb. I'm going to be the first to call for March or April layoffs.

To confirm, is it January or February the cuts are happening ,?

I took the VSP in 2014 and came back a few years later, best thing I ever did. The VSP would let the people that aren’t happy leave and the others could keep their jobs. Won’t happen but I wish I did!

There is a lot of debate here whether layoffs are around the corner or not. I don't know, but I notice that there is more anxiety than ever. If you're a job seeker, perhaps the best advice is to keep looking.

just heard from some higher up that layoffs may happen next week..mostly on 17th and the last day will be 31st (end of FY) .. good luck everybody .. fingers crossed

Is it true that Dublin based tech support roles will be moved to India?

No layoffs yet. Should happen sometime somewhere. Did you hear that company over there had layoff?

Not going to happen. If youve been here long enough you know how this movie plays out. Everyone gets a higher target so a shedload of people resign, no need to pay out redundo's and money is saved. Rinso Repeato

Let me see if I have this right. We're expecting layoffs sometime in January and it is going to be intense enough that some groups will be completely wiped out - all to prepare for the coming economic downturn. Somebody also mentioned something about... — read more

Is january the month for layoffs? end of year for dell

It speaks volumes about the atmosphere in this company that many actually wish to end up on the layoff list. It seems that there are more people who would like to be laid off than those who would like to stay here? It's terrible.

If you're still on the fence about whether or not it's time to start looking for a job, then let me be the one to tell you: it is. The world of job hunting is changing rapidly. The way things are currently developing in the entire industry, we are... — read more
