Yahoo's Layoffs: 650 Let Go

"Two of my co-workers just got pulled in and got the ax in our small team. More may be coming... unable to work really. He's packing and must be out of here soon. Sad is that immediate manager didn't deliver the news, but his manager. Methinks immediate manager has no balls!!!"

"my significant other, who works at yahoo, just went mysteriously offline. this is the third christmas in a row that i'm tracking every move wondering if the ax will drop. this is ridiculously stressful. it's clear that yahoo doesn't think at all about the people who are left behind to deal with the mess the layoffs create in terms of morale."

It's amazing how stupidly this process has been conducted by the company. The whole world knows that this layoff will occur, except the company's top managers who never know or comment about anything. Once this information has leaked to the press, they should fire the people as soon as possible... But instead, they preferred to pretend that nothing is happening and the employees just froze, worried about their jobs or if they will spend Christmas with a job or not. Yahoo definitely does not have the right timing.
