Layoff at Enbridge Gas?
Anyone aware of upcoming layoffs at gas utility? It's the season and we are integrating 3 new utilities.
PTO Policy
If you willingly leave HCSC and have unused PTO, will they pay that PTO out with your final check?
Layoffs: Home or Office
If they were to do layoffs would they be more likely to do them when we were actually physically present in the office?
If your AT&T boss suggested a layoff was coming, what would you do?
This is a genuine request, and I'd appreciate honest (not snarky) feedback. What would you do if your boss revealed that layoffs were imminent and your team might be affected? It might not be everyone, but it could be. Which is surprising, as we've already had several team members leave. But apparently, that doesn't 'count'. Alas, the 'powers that be' don't view our reporting work as 'valuable' - more like 'oh, that can be done with AI' or some other assumption that diminishes the complexity of what's required. I've been down this path before... and somehow survived by various means. Should I apply for other opportunities at AT&T? Please note that I enjoy my current role. I like my boss. But those above him aren't cool. Am I jumping from the frying pan into the fire? Please note: I'm nearing retirement age and want to make the most of my time.
2025 layoffs
Any inside information on what jobs are being eliminated? What states are being affected?
Heard anything?
Clearly it’s the month to cut. Heard anything about the looming layoffs?
Asking for severance
With the current state of things, how successful have people been in asking for WFR and getting it?
Government shutdown
For FGS have previous shutdowns affected teams?
Last day for opt in?
If you opted in to the severance package -
Have you been given an official last day?
there’s been radio silence.
Are Leads in technical positions that don't know how to code be fired?
Lots of full time employees that are Leads don't know how to code, only thing they know is to take credit from the work the contractors do.
Severance package
What do Severance packages look like for HCSC employees?
Defense and space in fed govt shutdown
Are those working on defense or space charge numbers furloughed during a federal gov shutdown that just started? Or do they just halt working those programs and hon pays them with indirect or commercial charge codes?
OxyChem Sale a prelude to being sold?
Doesn’t the sale make Oxy more attractive to a buyer like XOM or Chevron?
What are the best alternatives?
Where is everyone applying? I know most people are already looking, since no one’s crazy enough to just wait and see if their number comes up, but the listings I see are honestly discouraging. There are so few openings compared to how many of us will soon be out there searching. Are people branching into other industries too? Is there anywhere that’s actually hiring where our skills translate well?
Another round in March?
Do we think there will be another layoff round in March to line up with the RTO phase 2s?
I’ve heard could be two rounds and lots and lot of restructuring. Anyone heard the same?
Hey F5 how yall doin
Man it’s been a couple months since o checked in on this sh—tshow. Hoping some of yall jumped ship. Eff Eff Five. Get ooout
Bets on healthcare premium increase…
How much are they going to gouge us for? Rumor has it costs are astronomical this year… aging workforce and all. I’m guessing a 50% increase in premiums and a cut to their HSA contributions.
What do you think?
Reduction in Benefits?
Why are people saying our benefits are being reduced? Where are you hearing this?
What will Andy tell us on Thursday?
If MG is riding shotg-n, it can only be worse news.
Be so for real… what’s the point of corporate marketing?
No shade 😅 but I’ve been with my state health plan for a bit and just found out we even have a corporate marketing team. Like… what do they actually do? I asked my team and someone said, “they su-k, we don’t use them … we just do our own.” So now I’m like… if no one uses them, what’s the point? How do they add value? Not hating … but anyone had a good experience with them?
New board member
Could be our new CEO?
Bloodshed
Has anyone witnessed any evidence of the layoffs?
Can they figure out I am reading layoffs.com?
Any IT folks here?
How do i ensure i am anonimous.
Preferred Employee Survey Actions
Serious question - what are the top actionable items folks on this forum would like to see from AT&T Leadership? We know they read this stuff so maybe use this as another opportunity to communicate to them in a constructive way and originated by employees.
Suggestions:
Maybe leave off the obvious hot divisive ones that has gotten so much air play here and have such conflicting views (RTO vs WFH, DEI, etc) so the discussion doesn’t devolve to name calling.
Would be interesting if replies could be tagged as Union vs Mgmt since they may differ materially.
Be serious and try to refrain from mudslinging (I.e., - don’t reply if you’re not game).
Good luck to Corp Risk Folks
Full day (8 hours) for 4 days.
Why isn’t this happening across the board? Only for corp risk ?
Anyone get their severance $ ?
I know the FAQ says 3 weeks after signing the separation agreement. But as we have seen here some people got their laptop return box before "3 weeks" as well, some even before the separation date. O is being somewhat opaque about all this (big surprise). Just curious if anyone already got their cash yet.
Wealth Management Bonus
I am interviewing for a marketing position. Can someone please provide me any numbers on the bonuses that wealth management marketing receives. The salary is little bit higher than what I am making. HR mentioned the bonus % is anywhere between 25-40% of base salary. This is for SVP position.
So we are talking 900 people over the next two years?
Is that definitely true? How many are in the immediate danger?
Client Service Associate
Can anyone tell me about the client service associate? I was recently recruited and want to learn about the role and pay structure
Unannounced Law Enforcement Visits?
Anyone heard of what’s the reason for this to happen at the office? Is it ICE?
Honest question about tech skills
On one hand they tell you to "specialize".
You then specialize.
Then they tell you those skills are no longer the ones they need.
So they fire you.
Then you try to find a new job, you realize the skills you had are not the ones they want because it's too specialized, so you re-skill.
But then they overlook you because you spent time not working or another "issue" (you were spending money and/or time re-skilling).
Can you ever make them happy?
It's an honest question and something I really want to know, so please try not to respond goofy :-)
WFR and H1B
For those impacted by the wfr and are on a h1b visa, what are the options? Is Juniper going to maintain the status during the severance period?
Why are so many posts deleted
Many new posts were deleted fast. Why? Is HR nervous?
Does anyone know If BET will remain separate from Paramount as it is now or will it be merged in with BET staff getting laid off? .
I keep seeing that Ellison has pledged to keep and invest in brands like BET.
Rosemont IL Layoffs
Has there been any layoffs and if so, what depts.?
Year end bonus
Any word on what bonuses look like this year yet? I’m trying to get a new laptop to go back to school and can’t afford it because I don’t get paid enough
H1,GC in leadership roles
What is the business rationale for extending visas for GCLs and CLs who function primarily as people managers rather than technical leaders?
.why should a low level iq person with low technical skills who came on H1B be made people manger of a highly competed amrican worker
