1.) Hire exec. team of highly compensated "friends" to virtue signal
2.) Create us vs 'them' environment
3.) Have numerous employee indoctrination meetings
4.) Spin-off non core businesses
5.) Quarterly lay-offs of 'them'
6.) Complain that Bryan isn't Chairmen of the Board

Rinse and repeat.

Who's moving to enterprise? Payroll code changed Sunday for those moving. Good thing bad thing?

A rare but rapidly spreading condition triggered when Michael Dell logs on, drops a “Go American” post, and starts sounding like he just got off a call with Donald Trump.

Symptoms include:

Immediate emotional spiral on internal boards

Writing a 9-paragraph manifesto no one asked for on the layoff site

Saying “this isn’t political” while being extremely political

Refreshing comments like it’s the stock ticker during earnings

Advanced stages:

Convincing yourself every product launch is now a campaign rally

Interpreting supply chain updates as coded political messaging

Believing your PowerEdge server has a voting preference

Diagnosis:
A corporate variant of Trump Derangement Syndrome but with more acronyms, fewer facts, and way worse comment sections.

Treatment:
Log off
Touch grass
Stay off layoff sites until mild sedation sets in

Im so sorry it happened to you. But at least you can warn others, and give a tiny slice of payback. They do care a lot about FIS' public image

Because I sure as he-l won't.

Is there an official process to submit a 2 week notice? F this place y'all ✌️

There is a salary boost up for H-1B. Oracle, not sure if you still want to retain your H-1B ?

Is this True?

Coming first or second week of April. Once again, B10 will be decimated lives and families destroyed and children lose healthcare. Decisions being made above flms and slm heads. All decided by opps.

6-Hour Minimum Requirement for In-Office Time
Effective immediately (although April 1 is a start date)
Reporting will look for 8 hours but minimum is 6 hours
No exceptions (unless people are out of office for sick time, vacation, approved leave, etc.)
You can’t extend the hours throughout the week; it must be a minimum of 3 days/week, 6 hours/day
Absolutely no gaming the system — anyone caught doing this will be terminated immediately
New Info
No announcement will be made
Applies to every employee even if their management hasn’t told them about it
3 full days/week does mean 12 days/month, although 11 still meets the 90%+ requirement
Reports have already been sent to level 4 leaders for where things stand today
Minimum of 6+ hours in office does not mean people only have to work 6 hours/day

This is so messed up and it's going to cost us so much in the long run. So much knowledge is about to walk out the door and there's no real plan on how to mitigate it. There's also loss in reputation and resentment from people who were transferred against their wishes. Bad decisions all around.

Fiserv used to have its pick of top candidates. Now the pay and benefits are so poor that only the people who can't get hired elsewhere will take jobs here. Half the workforce is undervalued and it shows in the quality of new hires.

I have been trying all day to grab a copy of my payslip.
The link to last year’s payslip works but the main link just spins.
Has anyone else tried to get payslip copies recently?

You'd think that when the big wigs demand RTO, they'd at least supply you with the basics in the office.

Okanagan College has reduced its staff. This follows a 50 percent decrease in international student enrollment. Federal changes limiting international students caused this decline. The college implemented layoffs and early retirement programs. Further financial impacts are expected from continued student drops.

As an f u to the upper management I'm selling all my shares , no way this shyte will recover

Sc--w your layoffs

Why does anyone work here anymore? I can't wait to be laid off or quit, hoping for the former! Wasn't today walk out day? If you get fired do you still have to pay back sign on bonus?

Anyone else have people in their office pack stuff up, and told they’re being moved to telecommuter status?

I am in the Richardson office and a large number of people were abruptly told we’re moving to telecommuter. I’m happy, but don’t understand the urgency or the decision process.

It's that time of the year again and a certain Product person has been leaking about "headcount adjustments" Anyone have more details? I'm tired of the same people failing upwards and I've been looking for something else but it's not a good time to be job hunting.

Oracle employees always seem to conveniently forget that Oracle is run by a malignant narcisist. Narcisists enjoy the chaos created by pitting their underlings against one another. This is a behavioural fact.

So stop with all the questions of why management does this or that. The answer is that this is Oracle's company culture; derived directly from the sick individual at the top.

Furthermore, it isn't just the hand-wringing of the poor ICs that he enjoys, but the same reaction is taking place through all ranks of management, with almost no exception.

Several on my team received invites for 10am call today - no agenda. Peer was informed a few teams are moving offshore. They are only keeping a few leaders on a few more weeks to shift the work to OGS. WHY is this continuing to happen??? How can so many people keep losing their jobs? The ‘new’ jobs posted online are bogus & aren’t being filled. Don’t waste your time applying. It’s all smoke & mirrors. SMDH

Is ELT paying attention? Too much id--ts at leadership. Politics and favor is all their game torturing technically IC.

If youre going to track hours of employees complying with RTO and "fire" them for not making 6 or more hours a day then fire the remote employees first because it's completely unfair they arent under the same scrutiny.

Princeton University has frozen senior faculty salaries and cut departmental budgets. President Christopher Eisgruber warned that more cuts are coming. Nine staff members from the Keller Center for Innovation were recently laid off. The university faces financial pressure due to rising healthcare costs and lower endowment returns. Future changes will focus on efficiency rather than expansion.

Looks like it got popped and fell to the ground with an empty basket. Let the ones who fought for your good wages and100% paid healthcare( The Union ) keep your basket full and quit counting on those who care nothing for you. All deals must go thru The Union first.

Are you being harassed on day off ?

I am going to enjoy life till June 30th.
Not going to train my replacement. All my skills will go with me.

No rest, no relaxation, no relief...now we start figuring out when the next round will happen because we all know there'll be a next round. I hate it here.

Did anyone else notice RV gave himself a $50mm bonus on top of salary and stock options in March 2026? A 258% increase in Y/Y not too bad. But, I am sure the remaining staff will get a pizza party. The greed coming out of leadership is truely next level

I know the conventional wisdom is to wait it out and force the company to pay you in severance. But, they'll try to deny it to you by every means they have. You just have to ask yourself one question. Is it worth it?

You'll be faced with a ticking clock of the severance checks stopping while you job hunt. No getting away from that.

Just start looking now and taking interviews with sick days or doctor's appointments and then just...leave. No two weeks' notice. No exit interview. Just tell them you quit and walk out. You don't owe them anything at all.

You'll feel great! You'll be leaving this lousy job and starting new one. No better feeling in the world. Better than waiting around in the stress test lab wondering when your number is up.

They are actively trying to exploit you in every conceivable way.

Just. Leave. Now.

Were there layoffs within this team or has it always been a mess?

Anyone on a PIP will be gone by no later than March 31st. Anyone receiving a FY25 employee review lower than "Successfully Meets Expectations" will also be gone.
