Reporter: Mr. Profitson, thank you for joining us. Let’s get right to it—your company has experienced multiple safety incidents in recent months, some resulting in serious injuries. Employees say morale is at an all-time low. How do you respond?

CEO Max Profitson: First off, let me say—we’re absolutely crushing it. Our shareholders are thrilled, and I just got a new yacht. So, clearly, things are going great.

Reporter: Respectfully, sir, that doesn’t address the safety concerns. There have been three major accidents in the last quarter alone.

CEO: Look, accidents happen. That’s just part of the exciting chaos of innovation. If anything, it shows our employees are really pushing the limits. I mean, who needs safety when you’ve got quarterly growth?

Reporter: But many of those employees were laid off. You outsourced entire departments to countries with little to no industry regulation. Isn’t that part of the problem?

CEO: I call it “strategic efficiency.” Why pay someone $100,000 when you can pay $3 and a sandwich? That’s just good business. Besides, the new teams are very enthusiastic. They may not know what they’re doing, but they’re cheap and that’s what matters.

Reporter: That sounds incredibly reckless. Don’t you feel any responsibility for the chaos and declining morale?

CEO: Morale is overrated. I find that fear is a much better motivator. If people are worried about losing their jobs, they work harder. Or they quit. Either way, I save money.

Reporter: You’ve taken a 300% salary increase this year while cutting thousands of jobs. How do you justify that?

CEO: Easy. I’m worth it. Have you seen our stock price? It’s up 0.3%! That’s practically a miracle in this economy. I’m basically a financial wizard.

Reporter: But your employees are protesting. Some are calling this the “Corporate Dark Ages.”

CEO: That’s just noise. If they spent less time complaining and more time working, we wouldn’t have these problems. I mean, I gave them pizza last quarter. What more do they want?

Reporter: Accountability? Safety? A living wage?

CEO: Look, I’m not here to make friends. I’m here to make shareholders rich. And myself. Mostly myself.

Reporter: I’m sorry, but how are you still employed?

CEO: Golden parachute, baby. Even if I get fired, I walk away with enough money to buy a small country. So really, I can’t lose.

Reporter: I think we’re done here.

CEO: Great! I’ve got a meeting with my yacht designer. We’re adding a helipad.

Chevron is beginning to resemble Boeing during its most turbulent years. Leadership has implemented aggressive cost-cutting measures, resulting in significant layoffs and extensive outsourcing—decisions that have compromised both operational stability and long-term innovation. The normalization of constant disruption has led to safety concerns that were previously unheard of, and the workforce is visibly strained, both mentally and emotionally.

Despite this, executive compensation continues to rise, and shareholder returns remain disproportionately high. There appears to be a disconnect between leadership and the realities on the ground. The lessons from Boeing’s missteps—particularly the consequences of extreme cost-cutting—seem to have gone unheeded.

Rather than acknowledging their role in the current state of affairs, leadership is likely to deflect responsibility onto employees. The decisions made by Mike and Mark have had a profound impact on Chevron, and accountability is essential. At a minimum, their compensation should be redirected to support the remaining workforce. Ideally, their resignation would mark the end of what many now refer to as the “Chevron Dark Ages.”

When internal jobs are open to fill, most, if not all Booz Allen managers do not give priority to employees facing layoffs. I don't ever recall hearing the Booz Allen Hamilton CEO, or the many Vice Presidents, Principles or Directors come out and state that Booz Allen employees facing layoffs will be given first priority in filling internal jobs.

In fact, the last three external hires who onboarded in my group, came in with weak skills overall. Seems like Booz Allen internal candidates facing layoffs would have been a better bet.

If you are employee on the bench, unable to find new contracts to support within 2 days after being placed on bench or concerned contract, you are supporting is going to face cancellation or funding reduction. Don't delay in looking outside Booz Allen for new job. Don't forget to mark your LinkedIn profile as available or looking. Then hope for the best. If offered job with another company, leave Booz Allen Hamilton in rear view mirror and never look back.

People say Booz Allen was a better company before going public many years ago. I personally doubt that.

I’ve been ringing the bell on this for over a year—both here and in person. The writing’s been on the wall, layoffs were always coming this year. The PTO change was the clear warning sign.

I got out earlier this year and stopped even checking this site. Honestly, I’m amazed so many are acting surprised. Pull your head out of the sand.

And don’t think it’s over. Next comes a “mini reorg” here, another one over there, then suddenly—“oops, redundancies!” More cuts.

Bottom line: leadership has a headcount number they need to hit. Their bonuses are tied to it. Things will break, just like the culture that’s been shifting downhill for the last decade. Same as the country—leadership has their plan, and the rest of us just get dragged through the tank while they hit their targets.

Best advice: build a path that’s about you, not about serving an employer.

Uniform ordering was delayed, maybe because we will know our fate soon? AT&T, Network CO, Lumen or layoff?

Have you all that were recently let go started applying elsewhere already or are you waiting?

Layoffs incoming, 2 faced leaders

Severance estimates have been sent!

12y+, 70% of base salary.
Working notice may be provided, nothing about RSUs..

What are your thoughts? Are you happy or disappointed?

Will this impact your decision for the mobility survey?

I can confirm there were layoffs well beyond TA, as I was part of group more than 110 research support staff that were unceremoniously informed that it was their last day at Gartner and given less than 24 hours to download their paystubs and say their goodbye to their colleagues. It was truly a brutal and emotionally devastating experience.

KM4 roles. Outsourcing

I can confirm two more people left Lima and one more left Calgary this week. Two more also left Toledo although I can’t confirm whether it was voluntary or involuntary.

I saw on amazon channel ppl saying 2 layoffs coming, one in october and one big one in january. It said mostly US employees will be impacted.

A CU leader just blurted out “there’s another round of cuts coming [2025Q4]”. Other NYP leaders have mentioned gaps that need to be closed.

What’s the official word? Personnel are going to impacted? Focusing on OTPS only?

Welp, some writers were informed today that since our crossover work with NBC is pretty much over, their services will no longer be needed on October 20th. Some really good people thrown into chaos. And the selfish part in me knows this will be contagious. A real shame

I work in the BU in Dallas and last week we had hundreds of people laid off but I haven’t seen any exact numbers or big news outlets talking about this at all… I feel like this was a very dramatic cut but I’m confused why the media isn’t talking about that and instead they’re talking about the much smaller December layoffs…

Be Kind to yourselves, layoffs are not a business decision, but a failure of executive leadership. You all are awesome, stay that way!

Seems like there is still speculation around a VSP, not surprising given the age demographic of the RIFed employees (mostly under age 60?). Anyone hear anything, or is this wishful thinking?

Berklee College Of Music has made some big changes to its staff.

Amid shifting policies and rising costs within education, the school said they laid off 70 employees.

Berklee has confirmed to WBZ NewsRadio that the reduction in staff made up 3% of their employee base. No faculty positions were impacted by the layoffs.

God knows when the dust will actually settle, or what things will look like once it does. To those staying, I wish you the best of luck. Just make sure you’re always keeping an eye out for other opportunities. Be kind to yourself—and put yourself first.

Shell is pulling contracts. Will there be another round of layoffs? What have yall heard?

Absolutely nothing will change, except many of us will be jobless and replaced by cheaper offshore hires. At this point, I’m starting to think those who got kicked out first might be the luckiest. I can’t imagine enduring more months of this mess, only to land in a gutted team with heavier workloads and an even worse company culture.

Unsure of the validity of the information. A worker of 7 years reached out to notify today was their last day and they would be turning in company equipment. Noted that the L2s in transportation management warehousing is affected. Intent to hire external L1s for less pay, same job.

As I was about to post, a second reached out stating the same.

I was due to start with HCSC on the Dearborn side as a Claim Technician on Monday, October 6th. I received this email today:

"As you were previously informed via email on October 3rd, 2025, HCSC has rescinded your offer of employment.

This decision cannot be reviewed or appealed, and we are unable to disclose any further information.

We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused."

That's it. No other email, no reason why. Are the layoffs happening company-wide or specific only to the Cigna acquisition?

I was told that layoffs were coming today. Anyone hearing of any?

The constant sprinkling of RTO letters and little groups of layoffs paired with zero information is exhausting.

They should just do it and get it over with. All this game playing just motivates workers to stay out of fear of the job market or out of spite to get all the money they’re owed.

What info does anyone have regarding RIFs in the upcoming months?

With RJ taking the COO role, will there be layoffs coming?

What’s the real difference between us giving a company notice and them giving us notice? We choose to work there, and either side decides how long it lasts. When you look at it that way, and realize nothing’s really owed beyond that choice, the frustration and anger kind of lose their grip. Just trying to help!

I know it’s not great to be let go or be told to be in office for X hours, but at the end of the day they are paying you for your time! Not the other way around!

More layoffs to be announced apparently during ER call.
They will use the words that the Street wants to hear. More investments in AI even though excel macros are still the drivers of automation

Regardless of how you think about whether we should have the GT EMEA group or they’re helpful, productive, etc, etc. this isn’t about it.

Yesterday I was taking to a teammate in there, and they told me the GM sent a video where he says they’re targeting to execute the layoffs around early to mid NOVEMBER. That’s almost 8 months after everything started and ~4 months after we had ours.

Can you imagine working that long knowing there’s something coming from across the globe to hit you? How on earth you get motivated to do your job? Your counterparts already moved on, got promoted, fired, lateral moves whatever. And you’re there reading that “EMEA is in a different timeline” sentence in every comms from the company (they told me this line is basically an internal joke over there).

Some people are guessing what’s gonna happen but others already know because they lost their counterparts on other goes, so the writing is in the wall.

I do have a lot of reservations about the EMEA team, but damn, Nike isn’t helping the cause here. Dragging for that long? Unfair is the nicest word I can think of.

US based Transunion company tookover Indias largest credit bureau CIBIL 92% stake holder. It's making double digit growth in its India division with largest consumer base close to 2x of US consumer volumes.

TU CIBIL division needs more positions to support its systems including recently acquired Neustar division. It will continue to grow as more digitailization emerging into rural areas. More business more revenues. More revenues More jobs to support.

US division revenues major hit due to low mortgage files with high interest rates fed policies. Less money flow into its division more job cuts.

During Covid TU acquired lot of companies, Its consolidation of tools technologies products and roles are unavoidable for few years.
TU bought UK based callcredit and closed majority of UK employees during last 2 wayves as its revenues are very low. Soon FICO is selling their own scores without paying fee to credit bureaus a major revenue hit to US core markets. World is changing no more a closed Island. Same will continue other countries divisions of TU acquired bureaus.

AI will takeover majority of data science jobs especially engineering and data analytics. AI dont care boundaries, countries and regions.

Past is beautiful, Today is fantastic day, future is uncertain.
