CSM team has gone through two round of layoffs already (April and November). I heard more to come after the new year. Anyone has any insight on this?

Our team is not having any holiday event this year.. curious is other teams are doing something. If yes, is it comparable/better/worse than previous years?

We lost two people on our team who were solid in every way, reliable, hardworking, the kind you could trust with anything. Now the workload is barely manageable. And after seeing how the layoffs were handled, I have zero motivation to go above and beyond. The only thing keeping me trying is the rest of the team, who’ve all been great to work with. Still, it’s hard not to think that any of us could be next.

Most of these layoffs made zero sense. Some teams were cut down to the point where they can barely function, and what’s worse is that a lot of the experienced, genuinely skilled people were the ones let go. Now whole groups are missing critical roles, people who actually knew how to tie things together and solve problems because they’d built that capacity over time. It’s not just about losing headcount, it’s the quality we lost that hurts the most.

How many account people and upper mgt above dm level signed up to help in stores this weekend..

ZERO in my area , but let me know if I can do anything to help in stores🤔😂

I just wanted to take a moment to tell each and every one of you here that I'm really grateful for those who hustle and are working to keep Teradata as being the Trusted AI company. Our contributions keep us up with our competition and we continue to power massive data centers.

I genuinely mean it when I say I love each and every one of you who've put their hearts into this mission and I appreciate you for your work. My team the BCM group continues to keep our customers critical data synced up and this mission is super important to me. On this thanksgiving I hope you're all with your families, energized and ready to return to the beautiful San Diego office to keep crushing it!

Every time I look around, it feels like leadership keeps growing while the people doing the real work get ignored. The folks out in the field carry the weight and never get the credit. Meanwhile the top keeps collecting massive paychecks without seeing what is actually happening. How's that fair?

It's become a standard practice here for leadership to schedule last-minute "urgent" meetings, often to discuss issues that have been pending for weeks. This blatant disregard for personal time and planning has created a constant state of exhaustion for so many of us. In the last six months, I've watched three of the most capable people on my team resign. EJ is systematically losing its best talent because of a culture that refuses to acknowledge our time has any value.

How is bonus distributed? Do managers get a lump sum and asked to share amongst his team?

Despite all the bullying from team leaders to reach targets be assured theres no chance of being fired for not meeting them,so relax who cares about a negative review your going to get for something else anyway.

That “Fireside Chat” today was beyond corny and completely useless. I’m sure the 1933 evening radio programs were much more informative and reassuring to the American people. Totally scripted questions which were rehearsed, regurgitated answers that could be found in previous emails and the FAQ website, beating around the bush & stalling on important issues that will need to be addressed pronto, communication is not tailored to specific departments, i.e. using a one-size-fits-all approach is not effective. For example, I don’t travel, so I don’t care how I access files when I’m in an airport. Of course, the collaboration, security, and AI rationale was propagated instead of being frank and stating that it’s a cost-cutting measure. No, you are not getting a Chromebook immediately, so stop asking. Yes, we know Early Adopters begin December 8th and everybody else mid-February. What will you need to do if use complex tools? They’ll “figure it out” later on, aka you’ll need to rebuild everything from scratch and make some sacrifices along the way.

Buckle up, it’s about to get brutal.

I know many people in CX team that are good for nothing. There are multiple teams in that group that have not delivered a single feature in the entire year.
They are always confrontation if you ask them. Love to finger point on everyone under the sun .. UX , GTS , legal etc for their massive delays.

All of them survived.. How ? Many great people were let go..

Dan should audit their 2025 performance .. Budget spent vs feature ( code) delivered in Prod.

This is absolutely brutal. It will take quite a while to get used to the "new" Verizon.

If they have not reduce from that cr-ppy team.. expect lousy bad web and app experience

Analyst in BR, entire team laid off under VCG higgens group this morning

Rip

Alpharetta Switch here. Nothing so far other than 2 folks.

What’s the details on your team? I’m tired of all these group chats with depressed people

Got meeting invite from SD, but our whole team is on it. SD informed us 2days ago he is moving to another org. So our whole team may be getting let go, except for him of course.

I got nothing so far. Should I take this as a sign I might make it? I don't see why they wouldn't send out invites for the entire team at once. Is anybody in a similar position?

I'm in corporate out of Basking Ridge. The place has been a ghost town. My boss and teammates have all been distant. I am seeing meetings cancelled left and right.

Serious question. When will the "new normal" start for those that make the first cut?

Our manager is making us come in, seems ruthless. I’d like to have the option of sobbing in the privacy of my own home. For the love of god, what is the obsession with being in the office. Give us our dignity during such a high stress time.

AD told his team Monday the organization would have a 20% cut on Thursday. Said he didn’t know who, but told the team to be prepared for what is coming.

Sounds like a bunch of agency’s had cuts/layoffs today 11/19. The ELT team is all in the Omaha office. Will we be next?

Is “meet the team” the last step of internal hiring? What is the typical raise range for internal promotion?

Do they know if they’re staying or going and who on their teams are ?

Do you all get any perks? We're a core team in Brokerage, responsible for one of Abby's three goals flashing on the TV these days. Yet, no team lunches whatsoever. After our persistent complaints, our scrum master (great guy!) organized a Pizza team lunch, out of his own pocket later we learned!

Meanwhile, other perks such as AWS ReInvent tickets, this and that training camps... the leaders are kept among themselves.

Wondering is it the norm or where I am su-ks?

How many layoffs are coming early December … what teams are being hit hardest! Poor Meg employees are dealing with all this before Christmas

Anyone been around these leaders or has seen the team dynamics and morals? Everyone of leaders must go, they are that bad and toxic. Shrunk the business and unable to maintain margins.

Is launching a new commercial. Just saw the “hard work” the team is super excited for on LinkedIn. Tone deaf!

Our weekly team meeting on every Tuesday just got rescheduled to Nov 21st Friday for this week. Maybe they wanna accommodate the Nov 20th layoff day? Not looking good.

I’m pretty sure by time end of week notifications go out most of management will need straight jackets from all the stress .We are all probably gonna be less useful after all this knowing if we made the cut we still may be on the next cut .Dan has made it very clear that these layoffs will be a way of life as a Vteamer .I mean go team go

We are already a small team - anyone knows if there will be any impact in legal department?

Why do we have a US leadership and Indian leadership in IT.
Possibility to trim the fat..

Are we ready to give our best 20% effort?

At least on my team. Tells you all you need to know about this company and what are its priorities.

ADs will you be calling everyone or just those that are riffed? Will you share the list with everyone after the calls?
