That’s never good to hear someone get let go but I don’t think it means a new wave of layoffs. I see it says new member on your byline. People are kind’ve sensitive because for several weeks over the summer this forum was filled with people announcing they were let go and a layer of fear existed because no one knew when it was ending or what was really going on besides people were leaving

Layoffs started a while ago. I know 3 people personally from my team who were let go

I was almost scared when I read this thinking there might be 'another' round.... Then I read the 5%.

To those saying I'm late--my best friend just got the "meeting" with HR and the Managing Director today. I looked at the news to see if there's a new wave of layoffs, but it seems to still be from the one reported in August (5%).

I'm not from ACN myself, just curious.

Hate to tell y’all, there are still layoffs happening because stuff has to be approved by ER and Legal. All layoffs still being finalized are to be completed end of the year.

Where did you get this number from? While we're doing well, we're definitely not growing our global workforce by 50% in the next 12 months.

I am in need of some serious advice.
