We have been covering rumors of ongoing stealth layoffs at Fulbright & Jaworski.
We now believe that six associates and four staff were laid off in Los Angeles; 10 staff in San Antonio; 8 staff in New York; 24 staff in Dallas; and 12 secretaries 29 in Houston.
And a JDJournal tipster warned us that more layoffs were coming today.
Now, from the tip line: “Fulbright & Jaworski has laid off staff in Austin, TX – starting this morning at 10:00 a.m.”
C’mon, people! Who? How many? How were those targeted informed?
If you know anything about layoffs today at Fulbright & Jaworski, please — send us a confidential tip!
Founded in 1919, Fulbright & Jaworski LLP employs over 1,000 lawyers in 16 locations in Austin, Beijing, Dallas, Denver, Dubai, Hong Kong, Houston, London, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Munich, New York, Riyadh, San Antonio, St. Louis and Washington, DC.
UPDATE
From a JDJournal Tipster:
Your numbers re Houston are incorrect. F&J laid of an additional 17 staff members on Friday in Houston. That’s on top of the 11 or 12 let go on Thursday, for a total of 28 or 29. I haven’t heard numbers from Austin either.
Thanks for the tip!
UPDATE 2
Now a tipster informs us that F&J Austin has lost four staff – two floaters, one secretary and one recruiting assistant.
Thanks!
