Has anyone heard about when the majority of different locations will be returning to the office? January? March?

I want the package. 2 months' severance pay for no work sounds good to me. I'm at a place in my life where I'm planning to leave soon anyway and take a few years away from the workforce to pursue other goals, so why not get a package on my way out?... — read more

Major layoffs coming. assessment currently underway, drastic overhaul of the service delivery model coming. I’ve been asked to put names in boxes and put forth names for termination.

With a 9 months of it, I cannot believe how poorly it is run. Zero leadership and back bone by some of the senior management. Very odd back slapping culture. Lots of talk about female leaders (which I support) but the females picked to represent us... — read more
