Why did XOM falsely advertise the potential purchase of Woodside?
XOM has sold its Australian assets to Woodside. Why would XOM announce the potential acquisition of Woodside when they are minimizing foot print in Australia? 🇦🇺
Is this a co-k block so Shell or BP don’t purchase Woodside?
Exit date 10 days ahead, any insider job success, or just fake posting...
4000 ready to move on, while the next round coming soon.
So now the rumor mill was No Eisp for field now it’s Eisp for entire Titles to get rid of all groups and make 1 universal Trch
So what exactly is going on big giant Eisp for all then for some.Then no Eisp everyone does everyone’s job.Now it’s entire groups titles get surpluses so they can eliminate your title and if you don’t go you become a universal tech.Sorry but they purposely wrote the contract in languages no one would understand with fine printer can’t see possibly invisible!!And I vote No every time to extensions for this reason you can’t tell who sold you out .One giant secret as always the Union can at any time spill some beans but nope fk this place .This prison sentences I committed myself to is almost over
Retail store lock install list edited?
I work at a retail store and received an email about ALL retail stores locks being updated and changed, My store among many others have since been removed from that list. Asked our ops people and was told it was due to extra work needing to be done to have locks installed. Email specifically says any stores needing extra work are still on the list but will be delayed. Any one else in retail can go and see the list has been edited down as the total store count seems to be in the 800s. Possible early warning sign for stores. I'm taking it as my store is being affected with whatever is coming....
Rumor mill now says instead of a Union Eisp they will have a one tech does all title
So I’m in field I don’t really care.But are they saying central office techs are gonna do field work vs versa .That all tech title will do all tech title work.Pretty sure this would be a disaster but Hearing frontier does this currently now they are owned by Verizon!!!

Layoffs on the horizon?
Today is the day
Any word on the teams affected?
GN&T Brace for Impact
July 16 has been confirmed as a notification day. GN&T is expected to see significant reductions, with the WNO Operations Support team anticipated to be among the hardest hit. The anticipated changes follow longstanding project management challenges and leadership issues that have been building over time.
Reorg?
Is it true that a reorg is coming? It seems like there’s a hiring freeze for PM partners in GBSG. Does anyone know who might be affected? When?
Calls being canceled Wednesday and Thursday this week?
Maybe its just me but multiple large group calls have been cancelled this Wednesday and Thursday. I get its the week of the 4th but would it be crazy to think layoffs could hit this week too? Or is it July 15-16?
July layoffs?? When will it stop?
There are rumors of another round of layoffs in July. Is anyone else seeing a pattern where layoffs seem to happen every 3–6 months and reorganizations every 14–16 months, or is that just perception?
June 30th Layoffs
12:00 pm and still no emails. Wanted to make an updated thread about the supposed mass layoffs happening today. Anyone get any correspondence today or heard any news regarding NJ offices/SEA operations in general?
Noon meetings!!!
Wth! More layoffs?!
Nothing again today
No layoffs again today, tomorrow and Friday are holidays
Looks like all the rumours were not true, nothing happening
D&H & Ingram have us on Credit Hold...
Looks like FHE isn't paying the bills again! Unfulfilled orders are piling up, haven't seen any D&H or Ingram Micro orders in weeks. Rumors abound on Slack about cashflow issues again, but of course OTC is tight-lipped, pretending there's no issue, while the boots on the ground have to deal with the pi---d-off institutional customers. May be time to desert the sinking ship....
Layoffs this week
There were rumors about cuts at the start of July, is that happening?
I’ve heard that IT might be sabotaging themselves and pretending to have problems just to fix them and keep their jobs
Is this true?
I'm hearing only sales
I've heard that only sales will have layoffs, all the "new way of doing business" is all sales related.
Other orgs won't be getting cut
July 1 announcement
The July 1 announcement is just a few days away. Are we going to hear about massive change, or will it just be a repeat of what we heard a couple weeks ago? Will they announcement headcount targets or kick that down the road? Personally I’m getting tired of the LT breadcrumbing us.
VTP for Leg T CWA union workers
After the June 15th VTP (Voluntary Termination Pay up to 104 weeks) announcement for a bunch of Leg T CWA union workers as well as much rumor going around for more of the same in September and December, I wonder what the people now say who adamantly exclaimed that there will never be a VTP. It would be interesting to hear how they rationalize or explain this now.
Severance Package
Anyone know what the current severance package is or what people have been receiving?
Bank will have another round of layoffs in July or August.
IT AS A SERVICE
Anyone know how it’s getting on. Heard it’s not going too well. Taken us back to the 90’s
Office closing?
Just heard the Bellevue and Portland offices are being closed at the end of July? Any other offices affected or just those two?
Optum Selloff Strategy
I want to preface everything with the fact that I have no idea if they’re actually planning to absorb minimal tech resources into UHG and then sell Optum. This is just a rumor that I read previously on this site.
I have two questions:
Does anyone know if this rumor has any merit?
If the rumor is true, how do you think they’ll draw the line in the sand? What teams will stay and what teams will be sold off? Will it be split by leader, onshore/offshore, etc?
I genuinely don’t know what outcome would be best. I’m just kind of curious if I can predict where my job will land.
Verizon Stock Together
2026 stock together has been approved with grant date Oct 1,2026
So if NJ requires 90 days notice and they have to get people off the books to avoid that payout, then a June 30 announcement for an off payroll date kinda makes sense.
Does anyone have any insights to any announcement on June 30th ? This is all speculative, im just looking at rumors and how timelines could match up to the stock together date.
Something big is about to happen at T-Mobile
We got supervisor’s personally calling customer care representatives on their cell telling them that they have overtime avail Monday. They saying it is super secretive to the point they don’t even want to relay this info about overtime on tmobiles own systems and of course no one is suppose to talk about it. Anyone know what sh-t is about to hit the roof at this company?
Blood Bath starts next week
Major change is how Opentext operates starts July 1. This change requires fewer people to do all jobs. WFR notifications start next week.
Any Wellmed layoffs today?
Just wondering if Wellmed was spared in this round
So what happend in Romenia?
Heard there is going to be layoffs? Did it happen? Which departments were impacted, and how many colleagues?
Is Bob still at Fis?
Can anyone confirm the great Mr Bob T is still at fis or left last week?
Is anything happening yet?
If there are layoffs today then emails would have already gone out. If people aren't seeing emails then maybe the rumor was false?
