It’s been announced that the now former head of the Americas and UKI will be leaving very soon.
Such a shame to lose yet another senior exec in less than two years, how will the company survive…

I don't get it. Are books going to be cooked?

Am I alone in thinking that? They are already moving CS which is a big portion of the process. What is keeping them from moving everything back? They are obviously not happy with the work that is done by FIS. I can't even imagine how bad the cooperation between FT CS and FIS Operations/Support will be.

No news of layoffs in EHQ , so just wondering what is happening in other places?

Confirmed fot next week. Most cuts. Please do not listen to clueless d-mb trolls who are here to deny 15% is happening. Wait till End of day 19 feb to comment

Is it unusual that the reviews were delayed by a week the day before they were scheduled to be released? We weren’t given any explanation for the change.

Why are most of the affected folks 40 and above? I'm yet to see somebody in their 20s or 30s affected, at least for now.

Working for my whole life and was looking for a long term job to save money and retire but went through 4 layoffs and two company closings.

A couple of years in I see the signs. The rats start leaving the sinking ship. Cubicles being moved around, bodies relocated to owned spaces, rather than rented. Unreasonable targets and although profits are up... They want more. Blowhards in management speaking but nothing of relevance is being done. LifeVests are not being replaced.

This is the death of the middle class in slow motion. God save us all.

There have been a few posts or comments saying there will definitely be layoffs next week. Does anyone know the percentage of people being let go? 20 percent? 50? More?

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like we now work in an alternate universe? It’s like a new operating manual has gone out to a select few as to how we all should behave and function in our roles and interact with others and none of it makes any sense at all? I constantly feel like I am being gas-lit.

Who else has come to the realization that his/her TI dreams are gone forever?

New Jersey experienced a significant increase in job cuts during January. Employers announced 1,980 layoffs, a 544 percent rise from January 2025. This surge mirrors national trends not seen since the Great Recession. Amazon accounted for 871 of New Jersey's January cuts. Experts indicate employers are less optimistic about the 2026 outlook.

The only way Fiserv can survive if it can go back to the George/Les/Jeff era - Respect employees! Fiserv has no employees. Most fired, rest shifted as an expense to Infinite, and Frank sold all his shares for $550M.

Think.,,,

What is going on in Jacksonville, more layoffs? Board on site?

IBM’s spinoff, Kyndryl, seems to be in a wee bit of trouble.

I was going to attach a link, but honestly, just Google it — there are plenty of articles out there.

It’s a company led by former IBM executives, operating with the same policies, technology stack, infrastructure, and culture.

Something is rotten. Will it infect the mothership?

It will get ugly…

We may get our paychecks from NTT and have an NTT email address, but we're still the serfs or property of the 'Other company'. Nothing has changed for us, other than throwing a couple of NTT managers into the mix. The toxicity, gas-lighting and manipulation hasn't gone away, infact there is little more of it from the NTT side now.

Also it has become apparent that there are different variables or opportunities that come into play as compared to a real NTT employee. And that is we have none. Instead of being mentored or given the opportunities to further the paths of our own choosing. Obstacles are thrown in our way and under the table deals are forged to prevent one from pursuing anything other than what has been dictated or desired by those above us.

Should you voice your concerns or issues to a manager. Expect the repertoire of how everything is your fault and have your tried to find employment with another company.

If one could sum it up, it would be in the song 'Hotel California'.

So is it true what I am hearing that if some people are giving there notice they are trying to convince them to stay , i hope that is not true you really can’t don’t that and i hope these people don’t listen. do what is best for you. think will this place will be in a year

Or at least, I haven't heard a thing. Somehow, that makes me even more worried. They've trained us well.

Why are there so many rumors about reduced packages, or people not getting one at all? I haven't heard anything concrete. Is this just conjecture, or is there a real change coming?

Just like Frank ruined this company he is about to destroy the IRS and Social Security office. He doesn't see the destruction he has caused.

Why

Given the current situation at Pinterest, is there a possibility they could cancel their contract with Accenture?

Once layoffs start, are they usually completed the same day? This’ll be my first layoff since I joined, and I’m more stressed than I’ve ever been. I’m worried one of the criteria will be last in, first out, which means I’m probably gone. I don’t think I can handle this dragging on for more than a day once it starts.

Lofthouse came to Toronto and his biggest concern was not being able to shop from whole foods. Here people are loosing their livelihood and his concern is luxury shopping shopping. What is wrong with this people?

How are we going to 'delight the customer' if our customer service is horrible?

IRA? Credit card debt? Xanax?

We “must” all lean into AI and it’s now a “core leadership competency.”

Honestly I’m more upset about AI being forced down our throats than about RTO. Anyone else?

What exactly do they do ???? outside of milking $$

Legit question 🤔 considering all these changes that are harming a once strong and proud company.

How can someone like Tracy K sc--ws up big time and stay? Doesn’t make any sense.

More bad news for worker bees- new head of enterprise strategy. He is from chase & McKinsey. Nothing good will come out if this addition plus our current cohort of d-grade leaders.

I had comment deleted from the Bartlesville layoff thread. In my posted I discussed how I thought Go-Go and Tractor Man likely feel about layoffs.
I guess I struck a nerve with someone because it’s been deleted.
It was up for ~24 hours before being deleted so quite a few people got to see it.
