It’s time to leave

This company is going down, the job market isn’t nearly as bad as what people are saying. You are so smart! There are companies that value your time and won’t fight you to make progress. It’s time to send out applications. It’s not worth staying here and fighting, they sold us all out, but the future for you is bright.


Comcast Chennai offshoring jobs

More jobs being sent out. The Job board is crowded. If you have a job I’m sure you are training those out of the country. Rumors flying cuz no one knows what they are doing, which is odd since these are imp. positions? Slow wait times too. Backed up. Anyone in this position? Sorry if you are. Was the divisions changing more about taking jobs and offshoring instead? It doesn’t seem right or people were lied to and it’s gotten so bad. I

Self resignation. Why bother?

Working? As soon as that daily Teams call wraps up, I’m already mentally checked out. Got the grill going, burgers and ribs cooking low and slow, just enjoying the smell drifting through the yard. I’m kicking back with a controller.
Fridays are quiet anyway. My manager doesn’t bother anyone so I figure there’s no reason to do anything. Good food, no stress that’s just how a Friday ought to be.


Take Care of Yourself!

I had the opportunity to leave last year and I took it. Not part of a downsizing, no severance. Just a realization that SF was not a mentally heathy company to work for and I began looking for other jobs. So many secrets, so much job insecurity, so much toxic leadership. After a year, I can look back and be thankful I had the courage to leave. My new job pays more, I feel more appreciated, and my leadership is honest and caring. One thing I've learned - trust NO ONE at SF. It's not just a cliche, it's survival advice. And, honestly, if you have the opportunity to leave, do it. I promise that your mental health will thank you.

The golden handcuffs with rust

Leaving isn't realistic anymore at my age. I'm too close to the finish line to jump ship now. So I show up, do my work, and wait. Not because I want to, but because I don't really have another good choice. There are so many who feel the same way. This job has turned into a prison sentence.


Has anyone else noticed the advertised pay range for positions is lower than previous years?

I see a grade 14 in Minneapolis advertised at $98,000 - $115,000. That seems kind of low, especially if they don’t offer $115,000. I know grade 12’s making over $100,000. This company is cheap and a dead end. Thank you Gunjan!

Any advice for internal transfer FROM bank to avoid layoff?

Been working at the bank several years and my immediate team has had transitions either with new teams joining or leaving multiple times over the past 18 months. Tired of living in constant fear I’ll be next. I’m an analyst so a decently transferable role to another field in P&C or Life, I would think. Thinking of trying for an internal transfer but also worried that’ll put a target on my back if they have to do layoffs. I feel like working in the bank it’s just a matter of time.


Stuck, Not Settled

Let’s be real nobody’s exactly waking up fired up to work at Dell these days. But with how tight and unpredictable the market is right now, a lot of us are still tethered to our roles whether we like it or not. It’s less about passion at the moment and more about stability, timing, and being smart about the next move.

So we show up, do the work, keep things moving, and stay ready knowing that when the right opportunity comes along, we’ll be in a position to take it.


In a peculiar situation

How do you live with the fact that you may be called to report to any location any time, while you are still owning a home in another state and not getting a job elsewhere? Are you willing to rent your current home and go, drag it out as long as you can or bite the bullet and move this summer voluntarily in the anticipation of not getting fired later.

There are no guarantees to job or life but these decisions do impact family and children. What are you 700 virtuals doing?

"Affected Associates" How is your job search going?

I was given the devastating news March 26. I already have an interview April 13 (Monday). No guarantees of course, but it gives some hope. I have probably applied to 10 positions so far. 2 rejections. And there was a contractor who sent me an email that seemed interested. But the role was in DC and paid significantly less with no benefits so I passed on that - not that desperate YET.

I never thought I would be playing this game again. I hope everyone who has gone down this cr-p road is making progress. I told the recruiter I secured this interview with that if they see T Rowe people applying that they are the best (workers not managers). Good luck all.


See? No need for the toxicity!

I left Qualcomm back in January. The toxicity was just way too much, and I had to get out. I posted about my experience here a couple of times.

I started a new job two weeks later, and honestly, it’s such a breath of fresh air. People here aren't "warm and fuzzy" or anything, but they get the job done without all the drama. It’s nice to actually feel productive and professional again in a normal work environment.

The pay here is also higher.
