When separating from WBA, market cap for the combined WBA was worth 8 billion. After they separated into individual companies like Walgreens, Boots, Alliance, Village MD etc, how much do you think just Walgreens by itself is worth? I don’t think it would be simply divide by three. Walgreens might be biggest out of all and do you think might be worth at least 4 billion out of 8 billion? If the WBA stock was still trading, would it be like $5.5 (half of what it was during buyout)? If that is true, would Walgreen’s current market cap be around 2.5 billion?

Handed in my notice today
Just turned in my resignation. I'll really miss the team, all of them are great people. This company itself is a completely different story, though. For anyone else feeling stuck, there are better options out there if you are persistent in looking. Wishing you all the best going forward.

Dell at CES
Were Dell at CES this year? I've watched a few YT vids about CES and Dell featured in exactly zero. I know JC made some speech about effing up but no product vids.

You are not a tree, you can make decisions and influence your life (RTO or no RTO)
To all the people on here complaining about RTO—you are wasting precious time and energy. Don’t waste your efforts whining on here to a group of people who, to be honest, 90 percent don’t give a damn about your problems and the other 10 percent is glad you got you got ‘em. Don't live with the dogma of other people's thinking. You decide what your limits are, or if you have any limits at all.
My cousin’s company issued an RTO mandate a while back. Do you think he took to an internet message board to complain and seek pity? Nope. Not a chance.
He mocked up a concept for a small mechanism for his desk. I think it was a printed circuit board with a slot for his work access badge, connected to a small remote radio unit (it was a cheap RRU from the web) and some kind of signal repeater with a diffuser which made the system think he was on site 24/7.
When they asked him about it, he played d-mb. Then instead of complaining, again he went and improved it with an integrated I/O switch, a battery backup unit with uninterrupted power supply (BBU/UPS), and a linear encoder so the signal output run time was limited to a max of ~65 hours weekly. He tweaked the battery size and a few other design features so that he only has to go into the office once a month for routine maintenance.
My point is sometimes it is better to tap into your creative side than it is to moan and whine on the internet. With the time and effort some of you guys have invested complaining and ruminating here, you could have had 2 or 3 prototypes assembled and tested.
Update: They made him a partner/principal at the firm about 2 years later.
You had one job
Dan, we pay for the phone to always work. It’s a cell phone company. You had one job.
People likely passed away today without taking to their loved ones for the last time because you failed as a leader. There is a human consequence to inept leadership.
Company culture is COOKED
"The issue isnt the RTO. Its the inconsistency of the how it's applied. Some entire teams and some teammates remain remote despite the mandate. Others have assigned desks and don't show up at all? Yes this is still happening. Others coffee-swipe and are back at home by 9:00. Some leave (they don't even sneak out) at noon. MEANWHILE other teammates are required to RTO 5 full 8-5 days"
Just get fired for non-compliance. It's really not a big deal.
All the silly posts in this site talking about "staging a protest" with picket signs and masks and cr-p is honestly so cringe and stupid.
In years past when they attempted to enforce a RTO policy, everyone just collectively ignored it, and it went away. That's it. That's all everyone had to do, and it required absolutely no extra effort. Whether that happens again this time around or not, I really don't even care, but I'm not complying regardless.
They can go ahead and fire me, I am not at all worried about it. Ya have until May to have a different option lined up anyways. I'm sure they already expect 10% of the workforce to quit and/or be fired, but probably not 25-50%.
Either way, I'm going to do what I've always done and just ignore it. Not really a big deal.
Comp day has come and gone
Just wondering how everyone did with their comps this year?
RTO Mandate for All Teams
Will this apply to all teams, or will some remain fully remote? I’ve heard it applies across all departments.
GoDaddy Restructuring: Widespread Layoffs Signal Instability
GoDaddy is undergoing significant layoffs that cut across multiple functions — sales, engineering, and leadership. This isn’t just a small adjustment; it’s part of a larger restructuring that reflects the company’s current instability and shifting priorities.
Employees across different levels are being impacted, from quota‑carrying sales reps to technical engineers and even senior leaders. The breadth of these cuts suggests that GoDaddy is not simply trimming excess headcount, but rather redefining its operating model in ways that will reshape the culture and future direction of the company.
For those inside, the environment feels uncertain. Compensation plans have been changing, transparency has been questioned, and now entire teams are being reduced or reorganized. These layoffs are hitting both revenue‑generating roles and product‑building functions, which raises concerns about how GoDaddy plans to sustain growth and innovation moving forward.
Externally, GoDaddy continues to present itself as a global brand with strong market presence, but internally, the reality is different: morale is low, trust is eroding, and employees are left wondering what comes next. The fact that leadership roles are also being eliminated underscores that this is not just about performance management, but about a deeper strategic reset.
If you’re considering opportunities at GoDaddy, be aware of the current climate. The company is in transition, and while it may still offer brand recognition and scale, the risk of instability is high. For current employees, the message is clear: prepare for change, advocate for transparency, and recognize that the company’s priorities are shifting rapidly.
WE DON'T WANT TO RTO! BILL DEMCHAK HAS GOT TO GO!!

Big drop in share price
Today I notice a big drop in share price...
Any hint on the cause ?
Fiji - seriously Fiji
Randomly heard recently that IT had a trip with a contractor to (of all places) Fiji to try and find some more low cost resources. Did any of y’all get invited to that trip?
Some quick Google searches show that it’s about 1/3 Cost of Living (COL) compared to Charlotte, so that’s somewhat understandable. But considering the time zone differences with all the other sites, how the heck are we supposed to have team meetings? Or is it only connection via email with no chance of getting global meeting's with existing teams in US / Europe / India.

Coworker got switched from Remote to In Office
I think managers are already telling their people. It’s so fu---d guys. My coworker got switched and they aren’t even near a major hub or my team. LITERALLY WHAT IS THE REASON??????????????
I am remote, but still waiting for confirmation.
Good luck and godspeed today. It’s the end of the company we know. Already have friends and family closing their accounts.

Article on AI productivity with quote from Alixpartners
https://www.axios.com/2026/01/14/ai-jobs-productivity-workslop
"The big picture: CEOs and employers are super eager to reap the productivity benefits of AI — particularly so they can bring down labor costs.
But for now, AI is mainly being used as an excuse to conduct layoffs that are due to other factors, says Rob Hornby, co-CEO of consultancy AlixPartners.
In a survey from his firm, also out Wednesday, 95% of CEOs said they expected to conduct layoffs in the next five years because of AI. That's likely more hope than reality. CEOs aren't yet seeing productivity gains from AI, he says."
Sounds like LHX. He's probably referring to LHX Next!!
Workday worker documents
New document showed up in my workday profile. About arbitration and my rights between me and the company. So normal document..... Or layoff list document?
14% of the workforce laid off.
Ehealth chopped workers with higher salaries and kept the new people. Looks like the teams trained their own replacements without knowing. Low morality company.
Today's the day?
If it is happening today I just want to say I've loved working with you all. I hope the right decisions are made but regardless, I hope you have amazing outcomes and a wonderful future.
