Classy AF move.

Any news or rumours profit sharing bonus this coming March? The shares price skyrocket and demands super exceed forecast

For anyone not aware, it is mandatory that 5% of your bonus will be awarded in shares. Team members will only get told during their meeting. You get a minimum of 2 shares if you can't afford more.

Can anyone explain how this is calculated? E.g. if 5% of your bonus is taken for shares, but that is only enough for say 2.5 shares, how does it work? (What happens to the residual?)

Under Stankey’s watch, AT&T lit tens of billions of dollars on fire. DirecTV was acquired for roughly $49B and later dumped at a fraction of that value. Time Warner was bought for about $85B, then spun off just a few years later after massive write downs, leaving shareholders with years of dead money and zero strategic payoff. Even the failed T-Mobile saga cost AT&T billions in breakup fees and spectrum giveaways.

Fast forward to today.
$20B in stock buybacks executed while the stock falls and analysts downgrade it to sell.
Operating costs rising due to five day RTO.
Bonuses at risk.
And now a brand new office campus being built from the ground up for no measurable business benefit.

This is a pattern, not bad luck. Buy high. Sell low. Spend big. Then double down instead of course correcting.

Employees see it. Wall Street sees it. The market has priced it in. Continuing to trust the same leadership to make yet another massive capital decision is reckless.

How many more billions need to be burned before accountability finally shows up?

Logged into Netbenefits today and saw the notice below.

“Your stock plan shares and/ or cash have vested”.

Really debating on dumping my stocks and reinvesting elsewhere since we continue to tank and can’t seem to stabilize.

Which do people start to get shares automatically? Is it level7?

Me and some peers I talked to in wealth got no pay raises because of the pending changes and role clarification. I feel like they’re signaling a lay off by giving no raises. Got decent bonuses and shares though

In stock value in just three weeks, what’s going on in round rock

If every former and current employee contributed to an LLC to buy up Truist shares until that entity gained majority share, they could overthrow Bill and the BOD. Not sure why someone hasn’t started this yet? Seems like an easy answer.

Get your sh-t together Allstate

I'm going with $2.74 down $0.69 (-20%)

Goodwill writedown at -$1.15BN

Anyone with old vmware / Broadcom shares what are you doing?
I've over 100 from when I left and thinking of selling them but not sure when they keep going up

What’s going on ?

$FFIV blames the recent breach for weak guidance, but the real story looks secular. Hyperscalers are commoditizing load balancing, and $NET / $AKAM are squeezing F5’s security edge. 1q rev growth turning negative, FY26 EPS down mid-singles. Stock -5% AH.

Goes to Hawaii talks about the great opportunities into the future and proceed to sell ~30K shares (13Mil) out of his ~230K shares.

Is it the best decision he made after he became the Qualcomm CEO?

My understanding is it’s the last week/s for many, especially in Technology in the UK.

Words of wisdom from someone who has already left:

1) Use GivingForce and utilise your annual donation amount to your local charity/school etc. Apply using volunteer hours and make sure you use those $$ up.

2) Use energise points!! As long as you have a good relationship with your line manager (lots of which are also impacted), they will approve anything. So talk to your friends in the company, especially those who are also leaving and make sure you send the Sapphire and Platinum awards to each other. If you were smart, you would have been doing this since you were made aware of your situation, but it’s still not too late. Also send one for your line manager if you like them, or have been supported.

3) Use LHH - I found them good for CV review. Better some help than nothing.

4) Any employee match shares will vest ~1 month after you leave. Probably best to keep a little while longer though as it wouldn’t surprise me to see a short term gain in share price before all the job cuts really starts to impact in the next 1.5 years.

5) There is life after BP. BP is a big corporate, and despite the market, are likely to have solid enterprise experience which believe it or not, is quite hard to find sometimes. Take a break, and get back into it when needed. For all its failings and leadership issues, a lot of good work is done by many, and you’d be surprised by just how much you have managed to accomplish despite the internal struggles.

1000 shares each? Beat award equivalent to 50 dollars? Snickers bar?

Things continue to get worse. Forced selling on 9/22 from the index.

Someone just Sold-Dumped 2,058,415 HP Shares Valued at $113 Million.

Looking at Broadcom's insider roster, Hock Tan owns about 1.5M shares which means he probably has like 4-5M unvested.
My guesstimate is that TK very conservatively had 750K shares unvested in 2022 at $44 worth $33M or so. Today they would be worth $190M. There's not a lot of justice in the world but if you look at the glass half full, you'll find some.

Sickening really - those at the top getting insane stock options + bonus's, company making record profits, then they do this!

Any I have been unofficially told by my line manager that we should not expect any bonus/rise or RSU's in this years performance cycle.

Do they not realise its us peasants at the bottom of the tree that are enabling them to make this huge revenue?
