Is it confirmed? 18k is a huge number. Worried about cascading effects.

You know what hurt me most, I got this news from media outlets 1st and then the email from Julie Sweet came in. Such an insensitive organization.

Yeah.. the fear and panic they create would make many employees leave even if they aren't affected by these lay-offs. After things go normal the attrition rate would evolve.

Yeah.. it's better to leave even if not affected by these lay-offs. Also the media flashing this as breaking news, which makes our parents panic too... Tough times
