#wantout

I want to vomit. The only thing I would miss from this job is the cell phone

I can't say this strongly enough: if you have any skills, any talent, any ambition...leave this place. It's a dumpster fire that will only drag you down. Get out and don't look back.

You have the opportunity to do something good for those that wish to stay. Talk to your manager and put yourself forward to be on the list and get a package. Or just keep talking about how you want to leave. Your choice

I lasted just over six months at CDW. The red flags were there from the start, from disrespectful culture, to no innovation, to managers who couldn't manage. I stopped caring how it would look on my resume. I needed out. More power to the people who can handle this place, but that's not me.

No empty talk, no posturing. If they offered me a package, I'd take it in a heartbeat. Fifteen years ago, I joined the company of my dreams. Today, it's the one of my nightmares and I can't wait to find a way out.

Why are people in their 40s looking to get out of Cisco? I am told Cisco has a very chill environment and people are happy to work there. I am seeing posts here on people voluntarily leaving and it’s scaring me, as I am currently looking to join the company. Do you guys still recommend Cisco?

5 people left our team in the last 2 months. Everyone else is looking for new jobs. It’s becoming genuinely concerning, seems like a race on who’s going to get out first.

Right when you think it cannot get more ridiculous they prove you wrong. I dont want to quit in this market but the moment I find anything comparable I am out of this stinker. My manager is still asking us for project updates like she thinks anything matters. Such an incompetent woman in tech.

The leadership is driving this company into the ground. I know people say the grass isn't always greener, but at this point, I'm not sure it could be worse. I just need a way out, even if it comes with less pay. I don't give a damn anymore.

I feel like my team has hit rock bottom. Every single person is looking for something else. Everyone.

I can't remember the last time I felt calm at work. Every time my phone buzzes, I brace myself for bad news. Every meeting invite makes my stomach drop. I catch myself holding my breath during leadership emails. It's not just stress, it's a constant state of low-grade panic. I know I can't keep living like this, but I don't know how to turn the volume down. I'm starting to realize that leaving might be the only way to get my head back above water.

It’s a new day and I still don’t feel any better about a late 2027 separation date. I feel I have made a HUGE mistake taking the VSP and it’s definitely time to move on.

Get out while you can

Working for optum is so boring and mundane even being in a role that's supposed to require compentecy HA. Can someone from HR locate me via vpn and put me off the next layoff pleaseeeeeeeeee. I hate my life here ! There's a ton of people stressed about layoffs that NEED their jobs. Lay me offffff you tards

Most of the people already working here are trying to escape. Yet somehow, people are still applying. I honestly can't figure out what would make someone want to join this mess. It's a mystery to me.

Who's actively looking for a new job? I know some people are planning to stay no matter what, but I'm guessing that's not most of us.

I don't know if I'll get laid off or find something else first, but either way I'm out of here. Hard to find motivation when you know you're leaving.

I've been thinking about whether staying here long-term is even realistic anymore. Everywhere I look, people are just going through the motions until they find a way out. New people, old people, it doesn't really matter. The consensus seems to be that Schwab is in decline and nobody should be pinning their future on it. Maybe that's for the best.

I know it's tempting to wait and see what happens, but finding work is way easier when you're not desperate. This place is going nowhere fast, so why stick around?

I applied for the VSP but I'm in a Service Coordinator role where each of us manages upwards of 200-400 cases. Will they accept us? What will happen to those cases? Not that I really give a sht I'm just worried I won't get accepted bc it's a broken fcked up system. I need OUT of that hellscape

It's amazing how quickly things can change. I used to genuinely love my job. I was excited to do it, and I felt good about what I was doing. Now I spend most of my time thinking about how to get out. I just want a way out.

I hope I’m a part of this layoff. When you have people like me who have been around for 14 years wishing that they will be Riffed it should paint a picture of how toxic this place is. Let this 12 year old VP enjoy her toxicity and all her a.. kissing useless sr directors.

Denial. Anger. Bargaining. Depression. Acceptance.
I have gone through all of them.
At this point, I am going to sit back, get myself some popcorn, and watch this sh-t show go down.
Even if I am no longer with Centene in the next several months, I will continue to follow this saga, simply for learning and entertainment purposes.

Get out while you can, save your hard earned dollars fro your family's sake.. you had sacrificed your family time to make contributions to Fiserv stock .. here you are..

Circuit City, Radio Shack, Blockbuster, Fiserv....

Please, please surplus me today🙏

Almost gave up. Fingers crossed, everyone, please. I'm so demoralized here that getting out is about saving my sanity now. Hard to believe I was once excited to work here.

I gave up hoping it would ever get better, or that my role would see any meaningful improvement or progression. I just hope the job market improves in the foreseeable future so we can all find better options. One thing I'm sure of - I will never work for a big corporation again, if I can help it.

I really want out of this place, but I don't want to leave empty-handed. I wish they offered a VOB or something like that.

All anybody cares about here is making more money for those on top. We're not even an afterthought.

While it took me a while to accept it, now I know there's no future here. It makes me sad since I've been here for over a decade and I've had some good times working here, but it is what it is.

The bureaucracy is insane. You can't get anything done without jumping through fifteen pointless hoops. Pay is below average, which is insulting given what they put us through. Job security is a complete joke now. I'm spending most my free time applying to be able to get away.

I've been around long enough to remember when this place was actually decent, when working hard got you somewhere and meant something. The money was never amazing, but you felt valued. Leadership wanted to keep good people. It's now just a sweatshop that feels like it's falling apart at the seams.

the company is moving EVERYTHING to India

It’s the last train to Clarksville people.
Long past time to exit stage left.

Ten years in, and I regret not taking that other job when I had the chance.

Every Sunday night I tell myself that this week I'll definitely start applying. I'll update my resume, browse listings, send out a few. Then the week happens with all the deadlines, meetings, fire drills. By Friday I'm running on empty. The weekend comes and I do nothing. Then Monday rolls around and I promise myself again. I feel like I'm stuck in a loop.

Anyone else hope they get laid off at this point? Everything su-ks here!
