The following is a post seen on LinkedIn (not my words)..."Pure storage has lots of jobs posted. Feel free to ask for intros to any of my contacts. I'm sorry this happened to you."
Where is the troll hunter ?
The fanboy seems to have been silenced ..... Disparaging all the comments about layoffs as false. In fact it seems that the troll hunter may actually be a NetApp employee whose job it is to sanitize negative comments.
The layoffs in previous quarters were quiet. This is the loudest one.
This is not NetApp’s only recent round of layoffs. The company in the first six months of fiscal 2022 laid off about 1 percent of its global workforce as it restructured to reduce its office space due to the large number of employees working... — read more
Any idea on what the package looks like?
Be great if anyone in the US can post what their package looks like?
Leadership is the problem at NetApp
I think the problem with Netapp now is NOT the people who are WORKING. It is the Leadership team who is eating all the free money with nothing to offer and decides to lay off ICs for the situation they landed all in. For the decisions, they made that... — read more

just Fed up
I am tired of laying people off for people that are never worried about their jobs. Complete lack of personal skills at the top. They act entitled and better than everyone. So ready to leave this place, it no longer feels like a home or family. ... — read more
Looks like the new hires were a big target
Judging by what people write here, there are many new hires among the impacted?
Don't worry too much if you have the skills
It's never a good time to be laid off, especially now. However, do not be discouraged because there are still many opportunities on the job market for those who have the skills. I recently got a new job despite people telling me that it would... — read more
They had it coming
The first day entering and my last day being removed for an injustice reason. I knew stuff was going to go down afterward. First was the stocks, then I heard they were cutting PTO from certain people, then layoffs of contractors, and then layoffs of... — read more

Is the contract (alternate workforce) affected too?
Wondering whether any alt workforce got impacted?
I dont feel anything
I dont feel anger, sadness or fear - what am I going through?
Based on the SEC filing, the RIF will continue through Q4 2023.

Would my 1:1 already be scheduled?
Doomscrolling, here. Are those who will be impacted already scheduled for their 1:1?
You should not expect to see an announcement about layoffs
NetApp is not very transparent about this. I know several people were impacted in May 2022 - yet nothing was ever announced even though more than 5% were impacted. Some companies are more thoughtful and transparent than others. NetApp really sucks at... — read more
EMEA
Anybody from EMEA reading this blog?
Clarity
Have impacted people been told or meeting scheduled already. Or is this happening throughout the week.
8%
Subject says it all
George just sent out official notification
8% reduction focusing in EMEA and APAC.
8%
Yup . CEO just sent out a ‘today is the day for size reduction’ paraphrasing ofc. 8% !!! Damn.. Lunch: Classical Italian$4.59. Stay civil, and be thankful for any severance you (I) may get .
Severance Details?
Apparently I am on the chopping block - havent received the new yet, but I think its time we spoke about severance. Can anyone throw insight into that?
Notices are out
Notices are going out for 1:1's tomorrow morning, if you get one you are most likely hit. If you don't get one you should be ok.... but check with your manager by end of day. Scope still sounds like it is broad from discussions.... sand paper of... — read more
Once this round of layoffs is done...
Is there going to be another one? When?
It was always a joke project in my opinion
Took a while, but finally. The project has always be a joke! what’s going to happen to the folks in Boulder? https://blocksandfiles.com/2023/01/25/netapp-astra-data-store/
WWGD
What would George do after Q3FY23?
No job is guaranteed
Regardless of the fact that we all know that no one's job anywhere is ever guaranteed, there are always those who are surprised when they get laid off. How safe do you feel at your job now?
So when is it happening ?
When is it happening ? And what might be the severance ?
Layoffs to be announced in February
High single digits percentage across the board. Employees who have customer facing jobs and have worked remotely will take the worst hit. We are not immune to the high tech stock boosting layoffs currently happening. Kurian as always only cares... — read more
What to expect from layoffs
The typical layoff cycle is early Feb, usually a Thursday, you can check the public event calendar and EBC schedule and they block the week of a formal layoff so they don't run into losing speakers. Last year they pushed to May, none of the... — read more
How long do we have to hold the breath for?
The suspense is ki----g me, I just want to move on and see whats in store for me. When is it gonna happen?
Scope of the cuts
I'm using this time to prepare because I think the cuts are not far away. The question is how big will it be and who could be the biggest target?
Any news yet on RIF?
Title says it all. Anyone have news on any people impacts in the company?
Layoffs are the only way to save the company

How long do we have?
The writing is on the wall, clearly now. I just want to know how long before the car hits the deer. Honest answers, please.
People who came back here
What are the reasons why you decided to return here? I desperately want to leave.
The future is bleak
Stock down huge on guidance for next year. We are the new Facebook. The only way out of a VERY large layoff. It's already in the works.
OMG, stock dives to 64$ post trading hours
