#rumor

Rumors flying around that Chevron’s North Dakota assets are seeking a suitable purchaser. Folks on the ground what’s your perspective? Possible or Impossible…love it when they say impossible

Or are we still in rumorland? I’ve been hearing similar things, but nothing certain.

15% RIF across the board, notice on Nov 20, off payroll Dec 19 is what we were told.
OP: @d5+1k89bz5ta

Now that would be very spooky!

Will cat & Jack be heavily impacted by layoffs?

Well well well. Thankfully everyone is ok but unfortunately no one will blink an eye over this. All this talk about the design teams being next on the chopping block might have some merit.

GM's Design Studio in California Is Site of a Massive Fire https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a69137455/general-motors-design-studio-pasadena-fire/

These studios are not setup to safety handle pre production or prototype batteries. They will forgo safety equipment in the areas due to visual esthetics. They will actively resist skilled handlers because they are usually hourly workers. One poster said it the other day that people in the design studios are arrogant entitled people. In this instance no one got seriously hurt but next time they might not be so lucky.

oh no

Are there more Acqueon layoffs coming?

Heard a rumor they are moving where toner will be manufactured, like offshore.
Would that make any sense with tariffs?
Doesn't the union have an agreement?
Or is this just to close all of webster facility?

Heard that they are touching the operation now

We have already been through 3 rounds this year, how many more this year ?

Any news on what’s coming up on layoffs or company split? Not sure why they always have to announce during holidays.

30 Oct , mark your calendar.

Heard the cuts come on 27th. Decisions about names already made.

There has been some rumors going around about a new corporate office location opening in queen creek. Has anyone else heard this?

Has anybody heard anything? My manager played d-mb when I asked him (which makes sense) but wondering if anyone else received more transparency about what will happen here.

So, it's a bigger impact than I thought as I thought it was a global number. Oh, well

Let's use this thread?

Does anyone know?

Or are there more layoffs coming?

I really hope those saying 5% are closer to the truth than the ones mentioning 10-15%. Don’t get me wrong, every person matters, and every job loss is tough. I just hope more people get to stay. The job market is brutal these days.

And is everyone on the list supposed to find out that same day?

Can’t believe she didn’t even announce it herself and had someone else speak for her. She’s probably just done with all the ** and called it quits.

I’ve been hearing some wild rumors, and I really hope none of them are true.

At least it won’t be a drawn-out process, which would only make things worse. Good luck to everyone.

So far, it seems like folks in Ireland have been having a rough week. Nothing yet here, as far as I can tell. The newest rumor is that the big round might happen in the second half of November.

I honestly don’t know what to think anymore. This whole ordeal - the escalating rumors, the lack of official communication, and the high likelihood of layoffs, whether large or not - is making me really, really stressed and exhausted.

Just overheard a Sr. Director say that on 10/28 BC plans on tossing the target Lego dog from the C suite lobby onto nicollet mall and then shouting "good luck with this mess everyone" and then retiring early.

Have the BAH holdouts been given an ultimatum to RTO or be terminated?

Has anyone heard of any big leaders "retiring" or leaving the company?

It would seem this is a poorly kept secret that Verizon Connect likely will be sold. Recent activity by leadership looks like they are best positioning the company's cash position and unexpected re-alignment internally. The stars are aligning.

I’ve heard that FISERV may be in discussions to acquire us by early 2026. This isn’t entirely surprising given that our platform’s design and user experience feel outdated. Additionally, client support has been declining—particularly with offshore teams struggling to understand use cases, which often leads to delays while clarifying issues.

Heard that there was a last minute upstream communications yesterday afternoon.

Any idea what is that about?

Be prepared

Overheard in office
Managers and directors are preparing list

Heard the rumor above. Anyone else have details or confirmation?

Not sure.... tbh I'm curious as well and what types of rumors?

Rumor from WCIB is that we will be expected in office 4 days a week. Guess they are trying voluntary layoffs again to get people to quit.

I’ve been hearing rumors of layoffs - that it was supposed to happen in September, then October (but still nothing) and I also heard December. Does anyone know when?

I slacked Brian today asking him if the layoff rumors were true.

He reacted with the omg bullseye emoji

We’re cooked
