There's a lot of buzz around that 10% / 8,000 number, but at this point nothing substantiates it. Yes, layoffs are rolling in, but we don't yet know if they're on such a grand scale. I've developed my own little theory that Oracle's layoffs will be slight for now, and that the largest cut will come between April 29 and May 31... that's the window after which Oracle's severance package clause with former-BEA employees expires (guaranteeing them 3-12 months severance if laid off within the 1st 12 months after last year's takeover) and before Oracle's fiscal year ends on May 31st. Just a theory, so time will tell. I've posted an article separating the fact from the fiction, check it out if you're so inclined: http://www.thedailyanchor.com/2009/01/13/oracle-layoffs-2009-sorting-fact-from-rumors/ I’m with you, John.
