This is so sad to hear. Would you mind sharing if you were in PIP or on bench?

Bench

Have they offered you any severance pay?

Bhai kabhi bhi job ja sakta hai ... Resume banake rakho ....

Sad to hear that, From how many months you were on bench

I am also from Globant. Shocked to hear this. What rating did you get and since when you were on bench? They said in Townhall there won't be layoffs.
Any idea around how many ppl got laid off and what is your yoe abd studio ?

What was your mid-year rating?

And they’re reaching out for recruitment. Makes no sense

Sorry to hear that bro

Bro just realized today is march 29, last days of the month, that means they had planned already beforehand about the layoff and just informed about this in the last days of the month for easy layoff, that also means maybe more people can get affected in the next two days

Sorry for your loss ... Black Wednesday it is ...

From which studio you are ?

Hi Sorry to hear, but would you like to share what was the reason did they told anything, any idea if other people on bench will also be laid off ?

People from projects are also being laid off. Just got to know. They are being laid off with 1-2 months of notice and bench people are being laid off immediately

I heard agile studios and Ui are laying off . Let’s try all to help each other and give references of any to the guys who are in need. Stay strong brother/sister

Also, layoffs have started since feb.

How many months you were on bench?

So sorry to hear this.. For all the talks that we are like a family and different from rest of the service based companies, Globant is really making a full u turn...

I guess in Townhall it was said there wont be layoffs. Someone posted that there won't be hike in May.

I do see a few new projects come in every week but I’m not getting staffed on them. Should I be worried? Should I ask my PM if I should be worried? We’re in a pretty small group less than 20 people

Does Globant terminates the employment of certain trainees after their probation(3 Months) based on their performance in the training period? Some of the fresher trainees were laid off this morning without giving a notice or reason.
