The job on its own is demanding enough, but knowing it could disappear any day adds a whole new layer of anxiety and exhaustion. Has anyone ever considered the revolutionary idea that employees who feel reasonably secure and actually rested might be far more productive?

UBS has been cutting jobs as a result of the integration of former rival Credit Suisse, which it bought in 2023.

A reduction of 10,000 jobs would equate to a 9% cut in total jobs for the Swiss bank, which had around 110,000 employees at the end of 2024.

Only 10 job postings in US. All are exec level. No CE openings. Heard that all instructors at NCRU were let go.
So I read that as customer service is gone in 2026. My guess is no service contracts will be renewed and any service will be outsourced. Anyone heard is parts in Memphis is moving or closing?

The End is Near

Layoffs happening around the organization. Merry Christmas, you are out of a job in the worst economy, but our CEOs bonuses are going to be ah-mazing.

SUMMARY

• Current payouts unsustainable with oil below $80 a barrel

• Crude oil prices expected to continue falling

• Companies under pressure to cut debt

• Reduced buybacks and job cuts announced

PARIS/LONDON, Oct 7 - The five biggest global oil majors are moving to cut costs, jobs and share buybacks as falling oil prices threaten to make shareholder payouts unsustainable without increasing debt, analysts said.

Chevron (CVX.N), ExxonMobil (XOM.N), BP (BP.L), Shell (SHEL.L), and TotalEnergies (TTEF.PA), have pledged high returns for the past decade to avert an investor exodus as fossil fuels lost their appeal.

But maintaining those generous payouts, which have topped $100 million annually since 2022, has increasingly been funded by debt as energy prices retreated from highs caused by sanctions and supply disruptions in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

If you see H1B job postings on internal website and paper postings in the office, report them to the government. It’s discrimination against American. They fire American hire Indians.

Edgewell Personal Care told the state Department of Labor and Milford Mayor Tony Giannattasio that 293 jobs will be eliminated as part of the factory's closure, with the first round of layoffs starting in March.

It's not the best, but it's better than many other companies. With the job market in the state it is, just having a job is a big deal. So Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!

The Canadian EDO program needs to go. I have worked globally including in Canada and always put in more hours than 40. Never took an EDO in Canada and was never offered one outside of Canada. Get rid of all the people putting in minimal hours. I am sick of doing their job for them.

Im in the vzt world. I was just wondering what you guys do? Do you work in a CO or in the field? Are you union or non union? What sort of thing does a vzb tech handle that a regular I&M or SST wouldn’t?

Excuse my ignorance, I’m relatively new and genuinely curious.

Why isn't there a hiring freeze after (and before) such huge layoffs? I can see hundreds of openings, some added last week. How does that make sense?

#WFC - Now that I have moved to a new company, I am happy to post this. I have never seen a more unprofessional, outdated operating model. The absolute truth is Wells Fargo Bank is a true cesspool from the top, down to the recycled mid-managers and their lies, abuses, yearly Job Title changes, Loopholes exploited, and the Misclassification of offshore h1b(job titles, and USA workers job titles and so called “officer roles”.

The same is will continue theough 2026. So glad I am gone, I was embarrassed to work here at this point. Having WFC is equivalent to having a Schart stain on your resume.

Now, with the new unethical(loophole) mandate raising the salary thresholds, many companies are quietly rebranding jobs to dodge overtime rules. Titles like “analyst,”, “specialist,” or “associate manager/Associate Specialist 4 - Vice President” are being handed out without changing THE ACTUAL WORK. It’s just another loophole being exploited: the company narrative makes it look like you’re exempt, while your day-to-day duties tell a different story.

The law is clear, titles don’t matter. What matters is what you actually do. If your role is routine, closely supervised, or production-based, you’re likely non-exempt no matter what’s printed on your badge. But the timing of sudden title changes around this mandate is a red flag: it may be an attempt to fit workers into exemption boxes that don’t really apply.

For employees, this isn’t just semantics. Misclassification means unpaid overtime, longer weeks for flat pay, and missed income you’ve already earned. If your “promotion” didn’t come with real authority, like hiring, firing, or decision-making power you may have just been reclassified on paper.

Keep an eye on how your job was described and the in-office expectations listed on the JD before the so-called rto rule change, what your duties actually are, and whether the company is leaning on titles as a shield. Misclassification isn’t an accident; it’s a tactic. And it’s one that costs workers the most. This, coincided with non-stop hiring of riskyH1b’s hiring, offshore contractors, etc clearly show Wells Fargo does not support American jobs, nor so they support America’s communities.

Doesn’t anyone think that it is a problem for one man a.k.a. CEO to make 30 million just to reduce headcount aka lay off American jobs and fill with offshore employees(very risky). Meanwhile, there are school-bus drivers out there making $50,000 a year and taking kids(priceless to many) to school and make millions leas yet have more accountability than someone making $30+ million dollars. Something is wrong here.

WAKE UP People. We have the power to make changes. Just document everything!

Layoffs will also continue until the end of the year. And start back up again in 2026. Everything else communicated is just smoke and mirrors. Stack rankings, ratings calibrations, favoritism, sham ghost jobs run rampant here.

When will the regulators wake up to this habitual offender of a bank. Clawbacks are coming for the Schart when they can’t hide the mess he made anymore.

What has everyone heard about upcoming job cuts ?

This aint stopping and will continue across the industry.

Is ATT or T-Mobile hiring ?

Any word of SGL, salary, VCIP, and RSU changes for individuals moved to new roles? I know some were demoted and informed of compensation changes at the time of that notification, but is everyone else to assume that no changes are coming? Will we experience similar SGL restructuring as occurred in Canada?

Most of the account managers in the territory kept their jobs. We lost around 20% though. ADs got canned & we lost a couple of sr. managers. We had a bunch of account managers who lost stores to indirect, how ever their job was safe & were told to wait until they get assigned a new location. It seemed that r2b & b2b reps took the least hit. Who knows we still got 2026 march to worry about

To all the people that said r2b losing their job to the virtual reps ( i bet they were vcg haters)

Anyways sorry for the ones who got impacted.. i do hope you get a soft landing

A friend of mine's brother coaches college sports. The nature of that job means getting 'let go' every 3-5 years, always around the holidays. It's a brutal job. My friend lost their job a few years back and called her brother for advice. She told me this...

Routine is key. You're going to want to spend every moment of every day looking for your next job, fight that urge. Your new job is finding your best job. To be your best, you need rest, you need down time, you need exercise. Take 3-4 days to lounge and de-stress. Then make a list of small house projects. Then put your schedule together. Your day should include no more than 4 hours looking for your next job. It needs to include a workout and something for your family. When those things are done each day, don't feel guilty for watching TV or enjoying your free time. Stay positive, we all get the silent treatment from potential employers along the way.

Hope it helps.

What is going on with those two love birds? Are they still bringing 5100 jobs to the Train station? I ask because an investment / real estate project is banking on that and I don't see it happening.

Anyone hear anything about VCG positions. Care- Case Management- Social Media- E.R.T or Pact?

I don’t pay much attention to PULSE but saw this on mine under Quick Actions. A link titled Review Labor Conditions Applications. All notice of intent to employ a non immigrant H-1B in multiple states and positions. Appears jobs are for $100k or more with a 3 year employment.
So no one in the US is capable of fulfilling these jobs? 😡

All you dead weight in GOA exploration about to lose your jobs. They’re outsourcing your jobs to Louisiana

Do you get Xtra pay for seasonal support boh?
I was offered this position in addition to my reg job title.

"According to our information, Nokia France wants to remove 427 jobs using the collective conventional termination procedure.

I have meetings tomorrow and need somewhere to work in between meetings while waiting for clients. And of course need to connect to the network.

I have been telling every customer that walks in and quietly told them that they are being misled, ripped off, and taken advantage of and told them to go to another carrier and provided them their acct and xfer pin #s

Verizon must fall. I played my part and everyone on the chopping block shall do what I do.

They should bleed out and lose millions of customers for treating us like dogs

I recently got a couple job offers that is 100% commission and one that is not 100% commission. I am currently an ASM in a direct store. From what I’ve read the commission for the job I got the offer for is around $80,000-$100,000/year for the first year. Also, I have another offer for a competitor to Verizon in their SMB side. Which on average makes the same as the other job but it isn’t 100% commission. Would you take either one or would you wait and see what happens with Verizon. Not to brag but I have won winner’s circle a couple times as a sales rep for Verizon. (I know asking strangers isn’t the best but it is what it is I’ve been with Verizon for a while and idk what to think)
