This all seems so unnecessary, even for a 12,000 person layoff.

"Don't be evil" is now more hilarious.

Yeah though it’s not so much evil as dickish and unnecessarily so. It would have cost them nothing to do this with some dignity and grace.

The cuts would amount to some 6,600 jobs, based on the 133,000 total workers that the company reported having in early 2022, its most recent disclosed figure.
“Market conditions continue to erode with an uncertain future,” Jeff Clarke, Dell’s co-chief operating officer, said Monday in a memo to employees. He said the company had already paused hiring, limited employee travel and reduced spending on outside services. Those steps, he said, “are no longer enough.”

The economy is doing fine.
Joe will tell us that in the SOTU address.

As I have asked before, what do you people use to measure the US economy?
If it is layoffs at Dell, maybe it is not doing so well.
If it is unemployment rate, maybe it is doing well.I am sure if President Trump were in office, the comment about "the economy doing fine. Donald will tell us that in the SOTU address" would have come from @Axtremus and @Jolly would have responded with the January jobs report. 555

I'll be absolutely fucking amazed if we don't have sustained double-digit employment shrinkage in the next 5 years. I'm not an economist and I have no idea what I'm talking about, but I don't see how we're going to avoid it. I'd love to be wrong, though.

Not sure what I love more:
- The letter clearly says its confidential and internal only
- A CEO who uses lowercase initials to sign an important letter
- The phrase "...we need to take cost out of everything we do.... just like we did with safety..."
