Why? Seems strange, is Stefan still thinking about Content Server? Why Directory Services and not just OpenLDAP?

Are they safe?

With ongoing workforce reductions and increasingly restrictive H1B policies, a natural question arises: is the new ECIO considering establishing a Global Capability Center (GCC)?

From a purely economic standpoint, the math is compelling —sometimes hiring three skilled professionals for the cost of one H1B employee in the U.S., or five professionals when compared to a US citizen.

In today’s environment, expanding through a GCC isn’t just a trend—it’s a logical evolution. After all, the numbers will speak for themselves.

If role gets moved, did you get severance after declining relocation?

Hearing that laid off employees can reapply to positions after the dust settles and the re-org is done?

Thinking a subreddit could potentially amplify some voices and bring in other folks who may be unfamiliar with this site.

I would really like to have a weekend or two without dreading the next week. Why not just tell us, ffs? This scrambling for scraps of information is its own kind of torture.

So what did you think about Q4 results? Time to jump ship? Or stay put?

Astounding the Board has let a CEO literally burn a company, revenue and profit, people and stock price,

Then print some Warrants to add to the fire.

It's not an NDA project or a secret but, while not part of it I know a few who are and nobody knows WHY this is so important to Dell.. Obviously there is a reason but that reason is a mystery to everyone.

My understanding, at least from what I've heard is that it's about securing labs with fireawlls that are monitoring East to West traffic, rather than just N - S/ traffic. Which to me means that a lab was breached at some point and hacker had full reign to traverse inside the network...

But, I don't think that's the case because...

If it were a breach of confidential information/customer data then by law, Dell would have had to disclose that within 30 days so, I don't think it was a breach/hacker related. My personal guess is that it was ransomware and Dell paid up.

Anyone else here feel like their manager is constantly throwing work your way just to seem busy so the manager can appear like they had accomplished a lot of goals for the quarter??

Anyone know what groups were impacted in this most recent wave?

does fiserv still support zelle

What’s your best guess? I heard 30% but that seems high.

If you have been laid off recently, What department were you in and what band level? I see a lot of Evicore people are being laid off. I'm wondering if this applies to any other Cigna preauthorization department? Customer Service reps? IT teams? etc. Also, were you given any notice, or were you laid off immediately without notice? I'm just trying to see where Cigna is going with this. The suspense kinda got me what to just quit and go full force with my side business.

Did the bonus show up in your My Work Day yet?

NM did you see Rockwell is building their new location in New Berlin? Not Downtown and not close to the city. Why? Downtown is dead and only a fool would continue to build there. Add Rockwell to the long list that keeps moving out of the city as NM wants to move in.

I didn’t get a raise and have heard of a number of people who are in the same boat. What’s going on? Does TI want us to leave because we are pi---d ? This is a slap on the face, I worked really hard last year

Many of our corporate teams were laid off, but I am hearing some of those who were kept will be placed into other roles?

Within my department, senior managers and below are all in the dark right now. So who is deciding to save who?

Are they going to give a standard severance if you are laid off?

We sabotage ourselves, why? Explain.

No more Tricky or Nicky season but good, honest and well reviewed transparent hard work. No politics, corporate sponsored backstabbing or brown nosing.

I know many of you are not ready to do a full day of work. But you should be dealt with shortly.

Any idea where he is going??

Did anyone get email today eve?

In a January post (https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1kezt9p2t), a couple of folks mentioned enhanced IOE reporting that is coming. “Enhanced” means cross-referencing badge swipes with the laptop connection to the Truist wifi. One of my colleagues who is close to HR confirmed that there is a team dedicated to this activity, but he did not know when it was going to be rolled out to managers. If you’re on the team – or close to someone who is - please let us know when the reporting is scheduled to go live. Reason I’m interested is that my managers are going to be all over this when it happens. They are already hassling people who aren’t hitting the 5-day target. If you miss one day in a given week, you’re getting an email. “You didn’t get manager approval!” So much for flexibility and treating experienced adults like adults

Does my performance review increase/decrease chances of being laid off?

For those who have been affected by prudentRX and CVS caremark specialty a lawyer is forming a class. Easily found online

Have you seen the Valentine's themed small business days commercial? Da f-k?!

Are they going to start the next round of layoffs before or after the new CEO starts? It was pretty easy to read between the lines during the employee webcast today.

But what’s he doing?

Shell reviews pay against the market we compete in for talent, generally targeting upper quartile pay. Has anyone ever seen who Shell benchmarks against?

Who will be affected ?

How are folks feeling about these cr-ppy raises & no bonuses/low bonuses? Are people planning to stick around ? Do you think you’re getting laid off soon? Things aren’t looking so good right now and everyone from my team is getting anxious

I thought the goal (at least in part) of RTO was to get folks together in HUB locations to collaborate and sing Kumbaya while holding hands. I see a lot of exceptions made for certain people. Many managers are reporting to non hub locations and it’s perfectly fine. Why the double standard?

What % of you plan to accept number based on new comp plan!!!!!

Now this? Who’s in charge of Nike’s Cyber Security??
