Anyone know?

Do we know if the emails will be sent throughout the day?

This week must be post self-indulgent posts on LinkedIn on how great I am as a leader week.

Honestly, it’s so cheesy and desperate and why would you want to tell your competition what your doing.

I would ban employees from these self-indulgent posts; customers see right thru it anyhow. Comes across as don’t fire me please or hire me please to outsiders.

They presided over more than $100 BILLION of value destruction and continue to enjoy quarterly catered chicken lunches and nearly $350,000 in annual fees.

How are we paying for this??

I don't understand how newly hired automatically get to stay:/

Xbox plans to close game developer Compulsion Games. The studio is known for titles such as South of Midnight. Compulsion leadership is negotiating with Microsoft about its future. The number of affected employees remains unclear. This follows recent Xbox financial struggles and expected layoffs.

It’s evident that a seasoned professional knew he is unable to save this company and the company’s performance is damaging his professional reputation . Changing hands is just delaying the inevitable. The replacement was a necessity and nothing more. Good luck guys.

"I cannot promise you stable employment in top performing companies such as Cisco, but we want top performing employees who will stay and care about making an impact on the company" ???

The AMA was a giant gaslighting word salad

We could have ended up with somebody who has absolutely no idea what he/she is doing. At least there's that to be grateful for.

That is it. That's the post.

11/1 last day with some given option to keep their positions based in Baltimore. Another misstep for a brand once on fire.

Seems like an exodus is still occurring. Never will be the company it used to be.

How often does headquarters in BP do layoffs? Looking to join company but would like to gauge job security there. And out of curiosity, do you really need to be "highly extroverted" per the culture. Thx in advance.

Hi all - I’m a director here, younger though. My connections are leaving left and right. Everyone in the company I “grew up with” is leaving. Question is WAGS - heard we lost specialty business entirely. I feel like we are really doing pi-s poorly right now. Anyone have any info?

Eye opening! It shows how toxic UHC has become

This thread highlights how toxic this company has become - both Optum and UHC. Highly recommend, share this in all social media and let it go viral.. this is much needed to drain the toxic nuclear swap that is UHC!

Wow. Have you seen this? I just saw it. They’re talking about it all over—everyone is talking about it. Dan Schulman, the guy from Verizon. Great company, by the way, very big, very powerful, though frankly, the signal in Mar-a-Lago could be better. We’re looking into that.

But Dan—fake news Dan—he’s writing love poems. Can you believe it? Love poems! To his wife! And let me tell you, I’ve seen the poems. Total disaster. Weak. No vocabulary. Sad! He tells his wife her eyes have "low latency." Incredible. If I told Melania she had low latency, she’d lock me out of the penthouse. Total catastrophe. Dan is out there dropping calls in the bedroom. He’s got zero bars, folks. Absolutely zero bars. Sad!

Seeing a bunch of complaints on Slack about SpaceX and Elon lately.

Be real for a second: If you had to put your own money into just one company right now — SpaceX or Nike — which are you actually choosing?

We were one of the most respected American companies. Now we're nothing but a joke. What a sad reality.

Good luck guys

Is there somewhere I can look it up?

Heard wind of activity tracking being implemented on PCs sometime next week

https://presentofcoding.substack.com/p/please-switch-to-python

Stata can’t. SAS can’t. SPSS can’t. MATLAB’s answer is “call Python from MATLAB.”

even where these tools have some capability, it requires calling Python, or expensive licenses, or both.

I’ve rarely met anyone who learned Python or R after switching from Stata or SAS and said, “I wish I were still working in those.”

Probably the only way out of this mess is to make FOSS illegal or legally cripple its usage within the country and, if possible, around the globe. There are movements afoot…

I want to hear from people who've moved around in their career. Have you ever worked anywhere with a more toxic environment than this place? With leadership that cares less about its employees? I'm not being rhetorical. I really want to know. Is this just how all big companies are?

EH built a huge ticker out front counting down the World Cup and you couldn’t manage to make your shoes different colors than the competitors? It’s literally a sea of pink cleats, impossible to set apart the brands. Nike in a nutshell, who is to blame? Should the color team be accountable? The head of global football? Where is the ticker to determine how many more days we have to watch this embarrassment?

Outsider looking in, little odd they’ve had a posting for a position, it disappeared and then less than a week later another is posted. Context being always rumors of a less than stable group over there and some toxic management… had considered applying, but now I’m curious about morale. Anyone know how pay is? Low relative to midland based peers, but still passable?Thoughts?

Anyone any idea when notifications will go out and who will they come from ?

I've heard the rest of the year will be bad when it comes to layoffs. We won't see a slowdown but the opposite. Can someone tell me I'm wrong? Please?

With our app counts down, MLA negotiations not going well with one carrier, and backfills not happening, has anyone heard of any more layoffs? A small one seems likely to me after the earnings call.

Is this a new position? And is “Rajiv” H-1B or legit?

Heard a big announcement was coming next week ? Anyheads up ?

Let's blow that one up.. add your layoff Intel there.

Senior management have absolutely no idea how to run a tech company.
They repeatedly try the only playbook they have, which is to cut costs by laying people off whilst paying consultants millions to do their jobs, which seems to be simply latching on to the latest hot topic and hoping that fixes everything.
Here's an idea, why not try actually investing in the businesses you own rather than trying to bleed them dry.
Anyone else notice the number of good senior people jumping ship recently?
How's future forward working for you Stephanie?

People ask me where they should go to work, and I always tell them to go to work for whom they admire the most. It’s crazy to take little in-between jobs just because they look good on your resume. That’s like saving s-x for old age. Do what you love and work for whom you admire the most, and you’ve given yourself the best chance in life you can.
