#vp

I was given RSUs a few weeks ago. Does that mean I won’t get a cash bonus during my January compensation conversation?

What are the bonuses typically for US developers? Senior associates, vp, and senior vp levels.

Post after post, thread after thread - I have to correct you all. We hire companies like McKinsey to cut middle management (Dir - VP). Then we "re-org" the remaining headcount (you) as we see fit and fire people managers, and a few of you who speak up too much or we just don't like. Next we go on TV and side with liberal causes to seem woke (wait that stopped, with Chaz...lol never forget that city and M's comment on the 10th or J riding the Segway into the board during his "off air") due to lawyers in DC telling us to with the new administration, so we instead team up with Starlink...but Elon went on TV yesterday saying his $800B val is too low...why because he is ripping the technology off of T-Mobile (and plans to end us with DTC). So with that Morgan drops us $20 today, but it's not over. Stock will dip to $165, test back to $180, and the down to $140...but wait there is more. We will end Prepaid in 1-2 years. Then we will back out of KC/OP slowly lifting us back to $155. But they will realize we don't really do AI, we are a Consumer group of AI, not a Business group...so our stock will test $121...remember? But that's not it...Technology continues to improve, we will cut all of TFB, and start giving away internet and iPhones for free, because we have no other moves...but this destroys our ARPA and eventually..other enter this market with real adjacent businesses and who know AI revenue (not cost), we...go down to $80...well and then we get bought out..at $120/share by Elon....

Yes I am the Real Slim Shady, I am the Satoshi Nakamoto. Want to know anything, ask me...I will reply.

Sure Dan thinks he’s telling us all these revelatory truths but we all knew what he was saying was true years ago. There’s a significant proportion of the company whose goals are aligned to saying “No” or “It’s not me”. Trying to get anything done, or anything fixed is a complete pain in the a**

Silo management just blocks progress and every VP and SD are responsible for that

Genuinely curious, have any Neustar VP’s and above been laid off since joining TU?

Lets keep an eye on how many VPs - the hatchet man - has decided to create.

And wanna guess - where they coming from? You will guest correctly.

This is Plain BS and absurd, and unfair. WHY WE NEED TO CREATE NEW VP POSITIONS???

There were more layoffs in the Data and AI org today. Lots of VPs and product team members were affected.

I'm trying to make sense of the mixed messages and bringing in another industry CIO like Paula Krantz in our current climate. The leadership of this company seems to burns money on shiny new hires but layoffs and hardly cost living raises are the table scraps fr the rest of us who put in the years building the backbone of the company. I know a couple people in another department who left for better pay at SSM and Express scripts. It is probably time to clean up the resume which is unfortunate.

It’s getting harder to survive in a GVP role. Now with the elimination of a GVP role (mid-atlantic) that’s more work for an already strained team. Dilute the support, dilute relationships and dilute the outcome! :(

x.d*ta is currently not generating meaningful results and seems to be consuming resources without clear returns. The executive management appears to be spending heavily on travel( 4-5 times a year), often involving select individuals traveling between the US and Kochi, without any clear agenda just to attend the workshops. So far, the outcomes have been underwhelming, with releases that are difficult to understand from the release notes. subpar level releases where executives just pat each other's back after release.

While many employees in the US are facing job losses, some individuals who may not be contributing effectively appear to be receiving promotions or salary increases in India.
This should end, seriously !! few heads should roll now instead of RAing innocent engineers and managers ...entire focus is to make "kingdom" in kochi by this executive.. hope new VP takes notice of that and do long pending "purge"

Been with the firm in CCB for about 3 years now, This place is full of Indian VP Managers who don't know anything, they are basically project managers updating status in Excel sheets and working as Engineering leads or Managers. They are mostly all full time switch overs from Indian Consulting firms.

TMs be sure to absolutely just blast your SM on the Peakon Survey. I know some of them are decent but it's about a lot more than that. You want to make CMs and VPs squirm. Put in the comments, be harsh and do not go easy. Answer everything with zeros and be as spiteful as you can. Understand the surveys are not about making changes, it's about how effective the propaganda is and it lets them judge how far they can pressure you before things explode. Do not assume good intentions, under no circumstances. That place is an evil toxic he-l hole!

The VP of Group Ops and the Medical Director made their rounds this morning. Eight primary care sites in Orange County, California were notified today, midweek, mid-morning that they will be closing effective December 5, 2025. They will be consolidating the clinics, shifting providers/staff into the few remaining sites.

Apparently, they were told no one would be let go and only reassigned to the other sites. Unsurprisingly, this was a lie. Positions were eliminated. Support staff were told they'd "try" to find other positions for them to fill, knowing full well we've been in a hiring freeze for the past year. The remaining staff in the OC are completely disgusted by leadership. Morale has never been worse. Their twisted idea of patient care means that thousands of patients are being told their doctor’s offices are closing in two weeks.

They allegedly hire the most experienced, most educated people to fill leadership roles, who get paid handsomely for their positions... and the best idea they could come up with is to RIF a bunch of staff right before the holidays, on a Thursday morning, expecting them to provide excellent patient care the next day and every day after until they're let go? Let's squeeze them more and more and see if their eyes pop out....

They RIFed 70 people in corporate a couple of weeks ago. Any word of any more? New VP said he couldn’t promise there wouldn’t be another one.

VP's, director's and managers do not lead, they spread their toxic behavior and all they care about is employees that follow their lead and cut costs. While knowing HR and lawyers will cover it up. This ends up costing more in the end. Hold these people accountable for their actions, inactions, tactics and improve the moral of the entire team. Start investigating HR and move on through the VP's, directors and managers. Time for the trustees to make moves to remove these toxic leaders and show employees they are respected and cared for. Talent, experience and leaders are being lost. The system failed all employees.

Received and invite for tomorrow then it disappeared. Came from the VP coms person. Am I dead or am I safe?

A soon to be former Senior VP at VZ

Skyworks has created a new severance plan for top executives.
It was approved on November 11, 2025 and filed on November 14, 2025.

This plan only covers Vice Presidents and Senior Vice Presidents who report directly to the CEO.
Directors, managers, engineers, and all non-executive employees are not included.

If a VP or SVP is laid off in normal times, they receive:
• One year of base salary
• One year of company-paid medical insurance
• A partial bonus they have already earned
• Some RSUs that would have vested within the next 12 months

If a VP or SVP is laid off after a merger or company sale, they receive:
• One and a half times their base salary
• One and a half times their target bonus
• Eighteen months of company-paid medical insurance
• Full vesting of all RSUs
• Extra time to exercise stock options

To receive these benefits, they must sign a legal release and follow non-compete rules.

This plan gives very strong protection to VP and SVP executives.
Regular employees do not receive these benefits.

Be careful out there folks they’re tracking everyone’s KPI for RTO tracker and that data will be used as an input for the upcoming layoffs by VPs and HR

If any VP is on this thread please just tell us how you decided who to layoff. It’s happening at this point. At least you’ll save us having a speculate for the next week. I know you’re supposed to be tight lip, but please please please. Just tell us.

For the SVPs and VPs that were notified, what happens to their roles? Do they just get replaced with someone new? Do their teams get moved under other SVPs or VPs?

If you were in a Roundtable discussion with a VP does that help your chances? LOL

Say you worked under an incredibly ignorant and overly confident VP who wrecked your department and in an attempt to help fix things, you find yourself a target and eventually resign after receiving unethical orders.

My questions are
A. Is there a flagging system for ex employees and if so
B. How can one find out?
C. Can it be challenged?

Feel like there may be hope returning to the Swoosh.

So is there a way for promotion if your manager has not nominated you? Considering your manager is only at VP level and is like your HR manager only. Can someone from the top or anyone else push your promotion if not direct manager?

Is it safe to assume the lists have been distributed and that the VPs are reviewing them?

It is almost certain a new wave of layoffs coming. Put all you got here on this thread. HR, EVPs, SVPs, VPs busy…

Had long talk with my VP. Confirmed large cuts and outsourcing 2026. Budgets close to final 2026 but churn still and earnings. I am probably safe he emphasized LBT wants radical change but feels most old timers are lost entrenched and beyond change ability. Losers. Bringing in new talent at top level and at every single level. Expect focused effort at removing all managers directors VPs which are not top 25% and not Dee technical Same with Gr9 and Gr10 Eng who haven’t implemented or wrote specs in years. get rid of PowerPoint professionals.
Going to be a wild ride. 2025 looks like minor change to what is ahead.

Managers? Directors? Sr. Directors? VPs?

As title says.. I will vote for C. Paul and Vivek (whatever the last name is). They both need to be packed and shipped out asap. They are robbing Verizon. CX su-ks at all levels.

This is from 2007-2008 period when Calgary’s job market was hot. Lots of young engineers were quitting Imperial Oil. Imperial was desperate to retain its people. Salary bumps across the board were in double digits (and not the lower double digits).

I remember attending Engineering VP Eddy Lui’s town hall meeting for the engineers and geoscientists. Eddy was explaining how Imperial Oil had a d-mbbell shaped demography curve - lots of people in their very early careers, lots of people at the end of there career, and almost no-one in the mid-career in the company. The reason for this demography was Imperial’s decision to lay off and not hire anyone in the early and mid 90s. Eddy said, “Never again Imperial will make such a mistake!”. In his words, Imperial will hire engineers at a steady pace irrespective of the company’s situation. Eddy and upper management were worried about the future of the company. When the seniors retire, they would leave a vacuum in the company.

Let’s come to the present now. Some of the folks who attended that session are at the top of the company now. I am telling you, you folks will have to repeat Eddy’s comment when no one will come to Imperial Oil when the market recovers. You will be saying, “Never again Imperial will make such a mistake!”.

I have seen lots of managers VP CDL were laid off this week

Word on the street is that new CAO Scot Rogers summoned ALL VP+ roles from around the world to Possible LA this week. Everyone VP and above. Seriously? Why? Most of those people have zero to do with sales or customers. That's a TON of expense for a company that is underperforming at epic levels and laying off really good people every few months. Has anyone at the top even looked at the stock price recently? TD is being SO poorly managed. Why hasn't the Board fired Steve McMillan yet? He's clearly incapable of steering the ship around the giant iceberg directly in front of him.

Now, that's some serious cheerleading. Cannot wait to change my attitude and execute on this.

A lot of medtronic sites doing cost saving but VP level still can have business trip with just to have meeting on site, why can’t do online meeting which can have cost saving

As the end of the year draws close, VP of Indian origin are planning company funded end of year business trips to be with their friends and extended family trips to India. They don’t have money to fund our bonuses but will do everything immoral to accomplish their ends. Shame on you Shankar under whose watch this company has run aground. It really needs to die so that none of you make any money off this.

Does anyone know the numbers? When will the useless VPs be let go? Totally directionless with no vision.

I'm thrilled to finally share the exciting news that I've been promoted to my dream role as the VP of Merchandising for Asia Pacific and Latin America at Nike!

It's been a busy few months setting up this amazing team for success, but I'm proud to be back home in APLA, leading with passion, commitment, and determination.

After 22 incredible years at Nike, this role is a dream come true. I'm so grateful to the amazing leaders who've supported me throughout my career and believed in me.

Recently offered a VP Product Manager role after six rounds of interviews. I am based out of the Dallas office, curious how roles at this level are? Everyone I interviewed with was great but I would love some perspective.
