It won’t be formally announced who specifically is impacted until Dec 12th, iirc. WebEx is likely gonna get gutted.

Red Hat Airbnb Nov 18, 2022

My friend, the word “We” represents Blind. As sad as it sounds thats the current trend.

it’s honestly different from place to place. some leader tap middle manages whom they trust to help them determine effectively who is on the chopping block, but that runs the risk of said middle manager sounding the alarms and peacing out to the next place. others (maybe risk averse, or maybe they haven’t been able to build strong enough bonds with any managers) make the decisions from on high by analyzing Jira, or even just based on their intuition.

Security is impacted.

Duo Security qEAI21 Nov 20, 2022

Shoot. Probably marketing is the first to go?

Cisco jdkm Nov 20, 2022

@sysv46 Are engineering teams impacted in security BU? I saw you posting the same message on multiple threads. Are you a manager/director in security?

Cisco zBnK64 Nov 21, 2022
