I am thoroughly enjoying the plethora of armchair quarterbacks out here daily pretending they know exactly how to fix Nike. The vast display of ignorance is quite entertaining!!

A quick search asking which companies on Layoff.com has the most activity….. these are the results. Not sure if this says more about the company or its employees.

1. AT&T
2. Accenture
3. Bank of America
4. Amazon
5. Comcast
6. Cisco
7. Cognizant
8. Dell
9. Microsoft
10. Wells Fargo

Did anyone see our illustrious Chief Empowerment Officer for Clover in Vegas last week? Is she still on the payroll? One of the largest boondoggles from FB & SW.

Earlier I posted about L and D. The post was up barely and hour before it was deleted. I don’t know why, I’ve made worse posts before that didn’t get deleted.
I must’ve struck a nerve with someone!!!

I was waiting to see some posts on Forum but I don’t so I thought I’ll ask. Who’s paying $3,000 in registration fees for this event? I was under the impression that this was complimentary for all clients. I’m seeing marketing for this event show up quite late in the game which makes me think it was not well planned. Anyway be here attending forum and how it’s going?

Apparently it looks like the participation is higher here on this forum than on Pulse.

The more participation, the more information that they don't want us to have. Spill it.

Why are people so chicken shiiit scared to post names, initials, products, groups, or orgs on an anonymous site? These FCKRS have destroyed 10s of thousands of lives. They should be called out. Call them out!!

"The purpose of this site is to provide a space for anyone who'd like to discuss the possibility, likelihood or impacts of layoffs in a company of interest." - TheLayoff.com

It is not supposed to be a revenge site where people go to post rumors, speculation, lies, or even truths about other things. It isn't a suggestion box or anonymous tip line. So I am respectfully asking those of you who have forgotten the reason why this website exists to please stop hijacking it to promote other agendas. The noise is drowning out the information this site is supposed to provide. Thanks.

Getting deleted in the name of moderation? He's the head of a dept so senior enough to be named and shamed for his shenanigans

There are so many trolls trying to distract from the really important discussions around (potential or real) layoffs and how to cope. Please stop this. The important discussions are drowned out.

Two kinds of distractions are especially not needed: fake Indians (used to discredit Indians instead of focusing on the real opponents: the board and upper management), and na-i postings (often referring to the AfD, which is a really despicable lot of people no decent person would ever want to have contact with).

Stop this trolling. Do not drown the important discussions with this drivel.

Thanks.

Honeywell Aerospace has its own thread on here now guys

The board is getting harder to use due to what looks like coordinated astroturfing—which may be the whole point. So, I’ve pivoted to calling union reps and coworkers directly, since I'm not based near a major office. The reception has been remarkably positive. People are bringing up the Teamsters, UAW, and others. If you're exploring this route, start at the AFL-CIO site (https://aflcio.org/formaunion); it’ll point you toward local chapters.

Interesting how the the thread was deleted. Legal sent a cease and desist to have it removed.

Anyone notice thelayoff.com states Ford is a producer of tractors? Wasn't the tractor division sold to new holland?

Is it just me or are a few people in here not using a VPN and posting?? Some of the posts get taken down even when they’re benign, sounds like they’re traceable! Use your head.

So, did anyone else leave the employee forum this morning feeling utterly transformed? Because clearly management thinks a few PowerPoint slides and some forced enthusiasm are all it takes to convince us this “transformation” is the best thing since sliced bread. At least they finally admitted the culture is circling the drain—growth, I guess.

And that shiny new building they want to plop down in Scona? A pocket‑sized QP with all the fancy amenities. Because nothing says “we value you” like spending a fortune on a building instead of, you know… fixing the actual problems. Can’t wait to see what astronomical number they pull out of the hat this time.

Guess we need a new forum in a week.

It seems some posts show around 9000 views then the next day or so show a much smaller number. Merely curious, there at so many views right now as the date of the next purported layoffs (Tuesday) loom.

Many have been generous with inside information, if you can share, please do.

This forum won’t let me reply on my own post I keep getting this and it’s been over an hour:

“You have recently submitted a post. In order to prevent spamming, posting is limited to one post per minute. Please submit again in a short while.”

Join the BP Layoff for daily updates on the Train Wreck known as BP

This site has become nothing what it was intended to be. Stop with the politics and your “ever so important” and “only you are right” views. It’s a board about employment and layoffs. Can we focus and stop being so childish please? Anyone?? What have you heard? Who should be concerned about their jobs etc…? That is what this is here for people. You’re filling it up with nonsense trying to cause political debates that will never be solved here. It’s not an outlet for your frustrations. Let’s be grown up professionals.

Here we go! Day one of ELT's move to get more of us to quit. Post your concerns, complaints, funny stories, frustrations, etc in this thread so we can keep the comment section active for our neighborhood ELT trolls who love to lurk here (they are useless anyway, so might as well give them something to do today). Good luck everyone, and enjoy the collaboration this week! 🤡

PS. r/st louis (edward jones) has a post from a few days ago that links this site if reddit is more your scene.

BAC, JPM, C, USB. Seems like the closest competition comes from Truist.

This site was once a community and source of knowledge. It’s in a tailspin of conspiracy theories.

• When someone makes a reference to an exec from 3 years ago, and is no longer here. Ignore them.

• When someone makes an outrageous claim like “30% of us will be laid off” - do the math. That would be the largest layoff in USAA history times 3. That’d be nearly 11,000 employees to be laid off this year. They have no details. No sources. Just vague fear and round numbers. Ignore them.

• When someone is posting about a single person every week. Ignore them. That’s an unhinged person.

• We need to collectively stfu about RTO. There’s quite literally nothing we can do about it. The company has moved on. Society has moved on. Every other company has moved on.

Turns out when HR shills report your post, you are also banned for two days-- this does explain why so many OPs go quiet when their posts are removed. Anyway, that's why I've gone quiet.

I did not delete the post "Making a list of what we know." It was reported. Not unfairly, I might add!

Sincerely, OP

This forum seems to have a large uptick today with the topic of layoffs. I was there something spread today in the works?

What evidence is there for that?

I just put one in on two chats. My comment is there but TheLayoff says no replies yet? What’s up?

All the haters are alive and well in this channel. Go touch grass haters. Intel is here to stay and dominate!!

This site should be one that provides information for those who have been affected by a layoff. It has devolved into name calling, bashing the company, and just saying mean things about current employees. Seriously, if you just want to say mean stuff, go post on Twitter.

There are repeater posters on here that are doing nothing but trying to scare people that all is lost. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Seems like all posts and posters are Nike tech or adjacent.

Moderator?

Many of the posts have views in the 3000 plus range today alone. It seems that people are sharing this site. There is power in sharing accurate information. There is another call tomorrow. Would someone attending please post about it? Be kind to yourselves, you deserve it.
