Coming over from Oxy board to check here..

People claim that you’re giving technical staff a bonus for retention. Is this true?

Does employee started moving into the new JV? Is there any timeline for completion?

CEO Stephenson said the stock was going to $50/share
CFO Stevens said it was a good thing AT&T was kicked off the DOW and replaced by Apple
COO Stankey did that hilarious/mocking impression of Trump right before the 2016 election - then Trump got elected and when had to spend an extra $550M in legal expenses to get the Time Warner deal done
COO Donovan (claiming to be a good Irish Catholic boy) got caught sniffing Arnoldi's drawers.
Never the A-Team of C-Suite America.

10's? 100-200?

Any layoffs foreseen in Poland ?

What should we know? ...See full article: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/bryanclagett_fintech-payments-creditunions-share-7480737705392287744-i6sg/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAACq7UQBsrEhzsmtOcUrxPw12id8cFohgfI

Is anyone on that call? How is Andre going to lead a marketing department when he has no energy and seemingly no experience in marketing.

Also seems like Katz was pushed out.

No matter how successful and value creative bpx advertises itself to be the new bp will take exception and possibly even divest the assets as it has been done in the past. Expect Hainsville to rename unscathed…gas matters.

I’ve confirmed they really are lowing grades for the exact same position.
What a sh-t company this is.

Based on the past 4 weeks, another email should be coming out soon. Maybe too many rescinded and they now need to offer it back to those that did not accept by July 2. Smh

It's nearly 3 months late at this point

Now that it looks like from managements maneuvering that bankruptcy is certain to happen very soon, what are the odds it could go directly to Ch 7 instead of Ch 11.
There was an analyst stating it could line up that way because of the abnormal amount of debt they are dealing with.
This would mean all stockholders would have zero value.

Why some people are still virtual?

Verizon's CXO org will see a significan reduction in headcount on 7/16/2026. Once they make the announcement, then the remaining personnel will see a reorganization where they move to other parts of business / organization is disbanded.

I thought remote positions were gone for good? I keep hearing people becoming remote that live, in my opinion, a commutable distance from the office.

How are these people getting remote approval?

I was told by an AD yesterday that they were asked “to do something they don’t typically do for midyear reviews and when asked why the Director said they don’t know why.” Any idea what this is and if it’s specific to this org or something happening more broadly?

Long gone - retired just before and during the Operation Excellence phase of the merger. After that all he-l came in from Frank. Jeff Y was gone to a house in Florida with a ton of cash. Everybody else learned SAPIENCE at the risk of termination. Yes there were problems of course - even IBM could su-k up a disaster or two. But the relatively good firm was shot full of holes. Am very sad at what it has become today.

After reading through the RMC business line thread, the upcoming Tech all staff call on Friday the 17th with its provide strategic updates and offer other important and timely news you need to know sounds ominous. They will probably give out the hubs that all remote employees will need to relocate into and talk about the second GCC coming up in Hyderabad. Anyone know anything?

So I was just sitting here thinking.. Did they move the stock together to October in order to avoid paying them out for a Rif that is planned?

Full disclosure I am not aware of how the payouts for the big Rif worked. Did they accelerate all stock together grants and pay them out?

Why else would this have been moved to October?

Thanks in advance. Hope everyone is surviving out there.

Anyone had NetApp admit they made a mistake getting rid of you and asked you to come back to the same role as if you never left? Didn't happen to me, but curious of others had it happen?

What’s your final answer? Are you staying opted in? Why or why not? Hmmmmm? There is just soooo much to look forward to! It’s gonna be Hhhuuuuuuggggeeeeee!! Centene is gonna be the biggest and bestest health plan EVER! No one has ever seen anything like it!

It seems that there are a lot of people from the UK visiting Westlake this week, but not much chatter about it. Is this related to the impending plans for layoffs?

Is burning AI tokens being monitored, if yes, is it the once on hyperspace being monitored or even usage of EKX counts

And the rest of us are stuck paying +$200 a month in parking/commuting fees and losing dozens of hours of personal time

The way PNC is handling everything right now is fu--ing absymal. I didn't think it was possible for the morale to get any lower, but here we are.

Has your department/management sent out any official notice yet?

I’m not exactly a fan of Trump, but I do give him and, more importantly, Oz credit for cracking down on healthcare fraud. We all know the health/medical system has flown largely under the radar. That time appears to be over and I’m all for rounding up rogue doctors, hospital administrators, nurses, pharmacists, DME providers, etc.

This seems like a small round, but you can never tell with the size of the company.

Any receptionist in here or does anyone know any with a super light workload, that also works from home. Are you worried about being laid off?

Reports indicate that id Software has experienced substantial layoffs, with approximately half of its workforce reportedly affected. These cuts are said to have severely impacted the studio's quality assurance department. The news follows a broader announcement of 3,200 job eliminations across Xbox's video game division. Bethesda, a sister studio, is also undergoing restructuring to focus on its major franchises. This strategic shift aims to streamline content roadmaps and enhance collaboration among development teams.

With Tom Kirkland gone and no immediate replacement what are peoples thoughts on Wescam, aeromet, and forcex being pieced out into other sectors and TSS being dissolved?

More information will be shared via emails regarding Project Fuji which is actually a continuation of Project Mongoose but with a different name. Lots of discussions between HR and the Betriebsrat this time and the HR definitely won.

The works council just approved the layoff of 8000 of 14000 jobs that Christian Klein and Dominic Asam wanted. This will happen gradually and all hiring managers are supposed to give preference to internal candidates first. Anyone who has been found to not use AI in the last many months or isn't deemed AI ready will have to undergo compulsory training or face layoffs. They are going to add more sections in Performance Management and force all employees to have an AI related goal. Managers make the final decision on whether employees are AI ready or not and this will impact the HOW and WHAT scores.

But this is devastating news nonetheless. I can't wait for my non-technical development manager to tell me that I am not burning enough AI tokens on something frivolous. She uses them all the time to create presentation graphics and vibe coding and none of that is actually creating any value for SAP customers. But she's an AI star now and actually "coaches" developers on how to use AI in day-to-day life.There are also discussions ongoing with the supervisory board to increase share buybacks and the dividend in the upcoming quarter. HR wants to use "any money saved through layoffs and performance management" to be used towards this.SAP is on track to become one of the worst companies to work for.

At Boeing let’s name all the shitHole department to avoid!

Things changed fast. It's sad. Nothing more to add.

The poor performers are being removed from the company

The people who don't do any work and don't comply with RTO policy are gone

We can now move forward and thrive without the dead weight

Lots of valuable consumer insights in the comments for the "leadership" teams at PEP
