does not look good at all

Do anyone feels like the load is increasing day by day. More tasks been included

out of touch or what !?!?

how is the quota so much this month!

We hear the low performers are being let go. It has been confirmed excellent employees are now being let go, too.

HC discussions ongoing. Don’t get too comfortable … stay safe.

I see jobs posted online yet the CEO wants to do more with less. Who knows which way this will go.

Did anyone hear anything today? Sounds like today is the day based on the email from EK.

Hearing its kicking off today. Anyone else hear the same thing?

What’s your aggregate score vs. firm avg?

300+‐400 VPCH...not feasible for what coming ahead...please think about us and not your wallet...we are tired, mad sick of it...pile more on us with no help, and definitely no hours given to us....people are scared to speak up i think....please re-think all the stupid labor intensive programs you people are hatching.....produce, meat..kitchen....etc...please...we are tired and exhausted ....so much shrink you people are creating....please stop working us into the ground

What do you all think is the future of Dental and Disability products?
Have heard about old, clunky legacy systems that are complicated/messy, negative impacts of offshoring, disorganized teams, etc.
Those are core products within USB and worried if they aren't performing well, how that would impact job security...
Also know know how Group Life is doing?

When are the layoffs?

People have stopped holding the handrails. Walking while starting at cellphones. Driving across parking spaces in the parking garage to get to the exit quicker. What is going on?
Leading indicator of lost safety focus?

I am asked to relocate to one of the hubs with a forced letter. I asked my management for HQ instead and HR seemed to have okayed it. I never got an updated letter from HR confirming HQ as the new location. Now, I am concerned if HR will pull a surplus on me for not reporting to the right location. Not sure what to do.

Anyone hear internal talk about jobs moving to Vancouver & Toronto?

Some upper mgmt noted jobs may move regardless of the referendum vote. This is similar to what happened in Quebec with their vote. I’m worried but I do have family and friends in both cities. My family is ready to move if Alberta separates

And the whole pushing AI up our throats , our customers are better at AI than us.

I have a feeling that there will be another round of layoffs in next few months

Almost the end of the quarter. People in Micro, do we see this lasting or will they start laying off all of us?

If so, start moving that mouse around ladies and gentlemen.

Any rumors for next round and where it’ll be focused?

I received exceptional ratings but zero RSUs which is atypical to years past. A bit worried if this lack of long term comp incentive implies anything.

Really cool of the company to not alert us about two people being shot right outside the building this morning. Street blocked off, doors caution taped off, lobby crawling with police and not a peep from anyone at US Bank. We’re in the trenches trying to hit RTO goals.

Anyone know when or if there will be another round?

That’s what it’s starting to look like. Seems a little self-defeating to me, but what do I know, I’m just a measly peon, right?

My manager found out I've been job hunting and that I took some time to go to a job interview (side note, I was an id--t - do not tell your coworkers anything, they'll use it to their advantage in a second). How sc--wed am I? If the interview went well I wouldn't have cared, but it didn't, so as of now, I have no backup.

Friday isn't usually a layoff day, so I'm thinking no, but if anybody knows for sure, please share.

Did I miss something about our deposits being different? None of my insurance was taken out, and my gross pay is less.

I am just worried, Is Cisco Tracking on what websites, I am visiting or what am I looking at on Google Chrome ? since news came come out Meta Tracking its employees.

We were told every day is a drop in location at Bedminster. So why do people have personal stuff (including plaques) at "open" desks? Name plates also....

How concerned would you be about RIF of your role, if your team received a request from your AVP for individual mid-year accomplishments to be sent to them in a doc, 2-3 weeks before the official Mid-Year Accomplishments submission portal is open?
To me, it signals more of a 'why should we keep you' than an official performance appraisal, but maybe I'm paranoid.

I am one of the so called lucky ones who did not get terminated but put in the redeployment pool and STILL have not heard as they have till June 30. Anyone else hear anything yet?

It's really quiet in my org, no notifications, nothing. Is it possibly done already?

That’s not a light from an opening, it’s a train

I've never been laid off, I have no idea how these things work and I have a bad feeling about today.

Getting out since their stock options aren't worth sh-t, I guess? I'm sure they will be replaced by external hires with no industry experience who live nowhere near a Medtronic facility!
You'd think the board would wake up to what a problem Geoff is. The stock is in the 70s!

He also referred to BP's plans to lay off 'thousands of people', which has not previously been reported.

Another round of Allstate Asks where Zulfi tells us that they want to know what we think, but then they complain (and target you) if we don't give them the answers that they want.

Any area we know for sure is safe?
