American technology giant, Oracle commenced its largest-ever round of layoffs where estimates are suggesting that up to 30,000 jobs could be cut globally and not only that, the severance comes with strings attached. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Fired<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Oracle Severance Offering Thinner Package With String Attached <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that the affected employees will only receive their payout if they sign their termination documents sent via DocuSign reportedly<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This simply means that if they don’t sign then they won’t get any money. So far, The Oracle  has not publicly released any comment on the subject of layoffs or the severance terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Tuesday, the termination emails, sent from “Oracle Leadership,” started hitting inboxes at 6AM IST in India and 3AM Pacific in the US and the employees were not given any prior warning or HR call or any manager in the loop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the email, they informed employees that their roles had been eliminated as part of a “broader organizational change” and the day they read the email was their last working day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After this, several were locked out of internal systems almost immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Severance Offered to Oracle’s US & India Employees<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oracle appears to have offered four weeks of base salary for the first year of employment, plus one additional week for every year after that, up to a maximum of 26 weeks to its US employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Following this calculation, if one wants to qualify for a full year in the calculation, then the employees must have worked at least six months in their last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note that the payout will also be adjusted in states with a WARN notice period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This seems to be a thinner package than what other tech companies have put on the table recently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, Block, which cut nearly half its workforce last week, offered 20 weeks of salary plus one week per year of tenure, six months of healthcare, and a $5,000 stipend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, Meta’s 2025 severance included 16 weeks of pay plus two weeks per year of service, along with six months of health insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides this, Oracle’s offer doesn’t appear to include any healthcare continuation or additional perks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In case of Indian employees, the severance is expected to follow the standard N+2 formula\u2014N being the number of years worked, paid out in months and the unvested RSUs, however, are forfeited entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With these layoffs, around 30,000 employees will be affected as Oracle scrambles to fund its AI data centre expansion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 The cuts could reach 20,000 to 30,000 employees\u2014roughly 18% of Oracle’s 162,000-strong global workforce\u2014freeing up $8\u201310 billion in cash flow, according to the TD Cowen estimates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oracle needs this money to fund a debt-heavy push into AI infrastructure that has put the company under serious financial pressure. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
