IBM Raleigh Layoffs (Home of Red Hat)

Red Hat Tower

"Red Hat Tower is the headquarters of Red Hat. It is located at Raleigh, North Carolina, United States." (Source: Wikipedia)

LAYOFFS at IBM/Red Hat are expected, it's just not clear when Red Hat will formally/officially talk about it (communicate or euphemistically 'convey' the plan). The former CEO left the company exactly a month ago, i.e. 1st of April. They want to "streamline techies' jobs" and folks know what that means.

A new and ongoing discussion at thelayoff.com:

IBM layoffs: Raleigh HQ

Red Hat layoffs shortly? This has not been updated in a week. But some say IBM deposited the notice days ago, concurring with what what the media had said last month:

NORTH CAROLINA WARN NOTICES

Last update happened on the 25th of April. We've checked 4 times already.

This new thread discusses how IBM gets rid of workers without laying them off. Relocation and return to office (mandatory) lead to it. This is a vicious HR trick.
