This morning, 8 DataDomain employees laid off in RTP. New dell-rules are that you get to continue working for 2 weeks. Severance is 10 weeks + 1week/year of service.

Yet... IMHO - Dell will make the cuts before the end of their fiscal Q2 (end of July). They need to do this as they are currently bleeding money, which needs to stop. The call will be made, and the number of employees that are needed to be cut are... — read more 

See ya

Unrealistic incentivising of employee performance can go terribly awry this was seen in Wells Fargo’s. If you set your Sales Goals out of reach for your team then even your top performers can't even reach them it, they become switched off and don't... — read more 

They should clean house of that useless layer of good ole boy managers who have been around since the DG days and have never had one new, fresh or innovative idea. They just kiss *** up the chain and that works, they haven't ever had to worry about... — read more

Maybe if they stopped wasting money - that would help! Flying managers and non- managers all over the place to meet with coworkers - when in all honesty - video chat while not as personable is a whole lot cheaper and works!! Just saying.

The targets for customers are so high in our unit that people have given up going after deals. Morale is terrible. Bringing in the biggest deal wont get you there and just means you will be punished next quarter Sales don't get layoffs they get a... — read more 

It is important to note that today is 14th. Tomorrow will be 15th, 3 days from 12th and nothing happened yet. WW is coming

Was moved from Nashua exit 8 office to EqualLogic building in exit 1. What a culture shock, most freelancing environment. Haven't experience anything this bad. Bad air, bad employees and very bad morale and haven't seen any work being done. There is... — read more 

It's a verifiable fact that Dell has amassed half a billion in cash to pay severance for massive layoffs to come, but I've never heard anything about July. Everyone I know says October is when the axe gets dropped on all their heads.

I agree there is a lot of misinformation going on in this site. I think there are a lot of people from both competition and disgruntled employees venting at the frustration of what is going on. I don't think there will be major layoffs like before... — read more 

Any one in storage Hopkinton, MDC, , NDC, Seattle, California, RR Texas. Honestly, have we done anything to deserve to be paid. All those ethical and hard working employees were either left or laid off. Pay attention, We all knew Michael Dell is not... — read more 

I was laid off 6 months ago, but Dell EMC did not want to give the 10,000 dollars to me. How to get it back?

When I first starting reading this blog 2 months ago, someone posted an entry with exact date of the layoffs and it turned out to be true. That's when I thought this site has some credebility. However, lately this place has turned to a graveyard of... — read more 

Prepare for the cuts

They can change any part of your compensation whenever it suits them as long as they do it by the book which usually means notification in advance of the start of the commission period in the case of "at risk" compensation. Back in January there was... — read more 

I have proof of retaliation. I got a new job offer and accepted. Should I complain to EEOC or move on?

I remember the 5% off to avoid some layoffs. Was it on 2009?? I want to see mgmt blood instead of ICs. They have tremendous salaries, bonus.

My boss let slip that in 'two weeks we'll see" when I asked him about July layoffs that would be the 12th. He also got antsy when I told him I was traveling that week as they don't like laying you off if your on the road..... guess the handwriting is... — read more 

Will have a meeting tomorrow. Pls share yours!!! Bunch of zzz based on hr comments.

Why so much talk about July 12? It's always a good idea to have resume and LinkedIn updated regardless. Somebody can be shown the door at anytime - never fun and can be a hassle but it is life. So always a good idea if u can to get your stuff in... — read more 

Honestly who needs the L5s and L4s when all they ever do is kiss a-- and wait for their L3 to hold their fat hands

Fundamentally Cyclone project is wrong. It's not new or next generation. It's a product with bit and prices from Dell and Emc storage and all project and program managers knew it will fail. It will never be released and/or customers will not buy... — read more
