Why even ask this question and upvote it, what did you think they’d say, 4 hours? The real question was are they tracking hours in order for it to count as an office day.

Oooooh, they went for the talk show format! Cringe-worthy.

“What can I do to improve, boss? “ asks a remote employee.

“Well, I have nothing for you. Move to a hub and that should solve the comp issue.”

What a tool

We're certain it's done, right?

Come to Intel if you want your career to flatline. That's what happens these days.

Did everyone take their 10 minute survey and let management know how swell everything's going? Love the continous gaslighting from 1st level management to cull the remaining workforce that they could not get rid of. Lumen, the AI informers, were forced into another contract to get the NetCo sale pushed through regulatory approvals. They will use the remaining workforce, for the next 3 yrs, until they quit, die, retire or shut the lights off on themselves! Oh, and there will be layoffs along the way. They are not marketing, offering any NEW product and all of a sudden care about the "few" customers out there that really need us... yet talk about strategic abandonment based on Financials that we do not even have a grasp of yet! But let's go everybody, why are you not excited with the New GCO org and all the great things were planning? Silly Lumen, you gave away all your influenced employees with the recent sale, now your left with the seasoned veterans... let the games begin

They sell us tones of BS.
AI. AI. AI. …..

For those who worked through the late 1990, what's one thing you're glad younger folks won't have to put up with?

I remember printing out hundreds of pages just to review a document and having to track changes by hand with a pen. The paper cuts alone were brutal. What other dinosaur era work habits are you happy died off?

I had to reactivate my account because recruiters kept asking for it, but the constant posts about nights out, people partying with coworkers, and random personal photos feel so unprofessional. Does anyone actually use this platform to help others find real work? It feels more like a social feed than a job tool most days.

Is the blue pulse truly anonymous?
Lets say they get all 0’s for most ratings, do they listen more to that feedback or off with her head?

Can we stop with the PAC emails? Unless they are advocating changing laws for fewer layoffs.

What is everyone's thoughts on today's Town Hall?

Compared to other companies, our layoffs are both smaller and not as frequent.

We spend a lot of time discussing what needs to be done. Then we discuss it again. And again. Meanwhile, the actual work barely moves. When did we turn into a company where every single thing has to be discussed into oblivion before anything can be done?

There are things that clearly aren’t working, but no one says it directly. Instead, we just keep adjusting around them. It feels like everyone sees it, but no one wants to be the one to call it out. So it just continues. Because that's so much better and productive than actually fixing the issue, right?

I know this is not layoffs related, but it's been bugging more and more since it's slowing me down and it might affect my future here. We send out docs ahead of time for every single meeting, but it’s obvious no one reads them. Then the meeting turns into reading the doc out loud and re-explaining everything. I don’t understand why we even bother sending materials in advance at this point. It's slowing down the meeting, everything takes longer, and I have less time to do my actual job. How hard is it to get to a meeting prepared??

EM takes action the way a broken vending machine takes your money. You put something in, you hear a noise, and absolutely nothing comes out.

I wonder how many in leadership positions read these topics and comments? Maybe they ignore it all as just annoying noise.

Such a waste of time. The only measurable outcome is my rising blood pressure.

Do you remember when we were sent a book by ibram x kendi and ask to read it. And we had DEI meetings discussing pronouns and such? What a bunch of garbage that was.

Could Elcio have been more of a condescending a-s? I am just so done with him, he doesn’t listen. He is completely tone deaf. Anyone else?

In my opinion, VoA is a circus. If BD really wanted honest feedback, this platform has more than what needed for diagnosis of the issues. Do you expect anything to change with that survey or is it just to warm some “leader’s” pocket?

All I ask is why? why are people still completing this and participating in this pompous management scheme? They don’t care about employees so why are you still participating in their bull cr-p? All it does is placing a target on your back to be RIF’d next.

Record client growth and growing at rapid pace? But you lay people off and cut costs on benefits…. Cool.

I really like the man but I do not think having our executives swearing in employee forums is classy. I actually find it offensive. On a construction site fine but I expect more from our executives.

Why don't we include another brutal truth here?

Our costs are out of control and we are failing vs competition and our benchmark is BS.

Are we hearing the feedback from the broader organization?

What the heck does it mean to be on the bench? Being a benchwarmer is usually bad but it is discussed as if it is good at Exxon so must mean something different?

I have been with the company for around 15 years and have yet to receive any actionable feedback or coaching. I must be a rockstar right? My assessment results have varied wildly but I have never been below VG. I am not a hipo. It is extremely frustrating to receive feedback that cannot be actioned such as your role is limiting your assessment outcome and get a new role.

Just some honest feedback — there’s been a noticeable amount of negative talk about coworkers, and it’s affecting the work environment. Also, there’s a tendency to get involved in things outside of your role, which can come across as overstepping. It might be worth focusing more on sales, staying in your lane, and keeping things professional.

How many workers received VOICE SURVEY link? I am guessing only REMOTE workers received it.

Who all got the survey? I’m sure they’re not going to like what a lot of us have to say.

This guy doesn’t know jack fu--ing sh-t about AI. This Town Hall was the worst I’ve ever seen from this incompetent sack of sh-t.

Tell us to implement AI when we’re blocked by D-mb and D-mber Legg and Markus on any actual use case. Can’t wait to get laid off because Legg tripled the Azure bill to accomplish nothing but tell shareholders “AI”.

Thank god ask AT&T has a PDF to podcast generator though, that surely creates value.

Does anyone actually find any value in this process or is it just TD ticking a box?

Dan stated that customers should have experience price increases without added value and that he was going to bring more value to current customers. I have not seen anything valuable added to my plan. Anyone else? Is that is plan for 2028?

Anyone know if answering the pulse survey in a less than positive way result in being marked for termination? Kind of feels like a way to identify workers who aren’t “aligned” …

Just received an email saying i've been selected to take the Pulse Survey.

HARD PASS
