Thread regarding Fidelity National Information Services Inc. layoffs

There's a rumor going around, and by now everyone's heard some version of it — August is going to be the big one. The mother of all layoffs.
The last round took more than 2000+ people. If the chatter's right and this one's even bigger, that's hard to wrap your head around.
So the mood is what you'd expect. People are walking on eggshells, checking their calendars for meetings that weren't there yesterday, waiting for the other shoe to drop. The work still gets done, but nobody's really in it and through all of it, the same people who steered us into this mess are carrying on like nothing happened. Still playing the same little power games. Still pulling strings.

Even after getting called out publicly, the pattern hasn't changed — it just got more brazen. Take return-to-office. Some people get questioned for missing badge-ins, while others quietly work from home for decades with nobody checking. Same with promotions. Same with perks. There's a rule, and then there's who the rule actually applies to.
Every decision, somehow, lands in favor of the same handful of people and whoever's willing to nod along. Same tired copybook. Just cranked up louder this time.

@b6 Well, they can't sink the kn--e into your back if you aren't there. Good luck.

@vf not that it matters now, somewhere on this page, way back in January, it seems, someone mentioned Project Dolphin. The breadth of knowledge and access here is so helpful even if it contains more changes and bad news.

@tz project Dolphin was the March action that moved employees to Cognizant and Zensar (rebadging) and laid off some internal staff (to be replaced by contractors) as well.

@de What's dolphin?

You forget how many people work in this company outside the US? That is not legally possible in countries which are not the Wild West when it comes to labour laws.

@de Could anyone knowing about a RIF in their department, please share it with the number, if you know?

rage bait

Yea I don’t think this is true. I have been in meetings related to dolphin and there are no other large transfers planned.
Today, however, is another RIF

@b6 you mean in Jacksonville? Local employees?

@bd
Key Rules of At-Will EmploymentNo cause needed: Employers do not need a good reason or warning to end a job.Freedom to quit: Workers can leave their jobs without notice or legal penalty.Job changes: Employers can change pay, benefits, or hours at any time without notice.

They cannot threaten you with "You take the job with the sh-t company or you are voluntarily quitting". That is not how a termination works.

For example: "FIS, if you do not pay me 15 million dollars right now, you owe me 200 million dollars by tomorrow. You agree by not responding."

See how stupid works?

I just got told that’s the week we have to return to office officially, yikes

@ab no severance because @OP is a walnut and has no source. Just sh-t posting.

@OP no severance because they can't afford it?

Proof?
