I heard there are going to be layoffs in cisco, targeting Data center BU. Is that true? Any feedback is appreciated!
Theres going to be around a 10% workforce reduction from what it looks like now. CSPG will be hit along with sales. This is on top of the 3-5% pay cut that all SE's/TSA's/CSE's all are getting.
TSA/SE/CSE are not getting a pay cut, the compensation model changes with a higher bonus portion. Now SEs get more upside and have the potential to make easily 20-30% more in a good year. That’s unheard of for SEs in our industry.
CPSG workforce reduction is concerning.
Sales and various BUs will be impacted
Both Director and Manager...
Is it going to hit a particular Cisco campus or entire organization across the world?
I believe they are targeting in Americas only..
If the company was smart they’d clear out of China. How can customers take us seriously about security vs Huawei when we have a ton of mostly unsupervised code coming in from PRC teams?

Ask where you “heard” it!
People are saying they will target teams/product not profitable or making money.
Wow who would have thought to lay off products that are not making money...
