We this this place is a sinking ship. Stock price headed down to 40. Gone nowhere in over 20 years. This place is like the Edsel, Flobie, Betamax, and Enron.

So with all of the paranoia and false reports of evil Todd’s layoffs we are down only 3,090 from our high of 54,000, or 6% over the last 4 years. And this includes job security over the pandemic. We should all be feeling very good about our job... — read more

Would anyone be able to provide current salary range for an L in Pittsburgh? Specifically looking for the starting point. Thanks.

Do you personally know anybody who has left in the last year? Why did they leave and where did they go?
