Maybe if you are out of work and struggling you maybe do give a sh-t. One persons view.

Many employees don't give a sh-t about the agreements between FP and the new CEO.

FP had a playbook from day one. The numbers of exits were already agreed with the new CEO on appointment. The management just execute the plan, they had zero say on the numbers mark my words!!! Puppets on a string.

The management team would come across much better if they just admitted they made a serious error in judgement in the numbers they fired in support

The amount of high quality very knowledgeable staff who are now finding new companies is very high. The KLT have no idea of what the business does or has done. The upper management have been promoted way above their capabilities. The result is the car crash now fully underway. The ship is not sinking its hit the ocean floor. Get out now as their plan is suicidal.

More new hires as well as longtime associates are resigning every day.

The mood has taken another nosedive in the last few weeks also.

to the bloke that said that ithe workers council is just postponing the inevitable in the red countries, I live in one of those countries and it's Keyloop that has kept the secret for months! the unions here (in Italy) have the only job to give us, that we have to leave, more money possible, so not to bring them to court...

Once you're out and with a decent amount of money, whom would care a sh*t about Keyloop!

the leadership in this company is simply inhuman.
the employees are trampled on and they don't give a sh-t what happens to them, because some of them will have a very, very difficult time in the job market, due to their age.
With these dismissals, the paying customer is also shown absolute disinterest and simply confronted with a fait accompli. all the know-how is gone, then nobody is there who can support him competently. It seems to be absolutely unimportant that the customer can no longer be helped in day-to-day business.

Workers council: best that can happen to employees in a company if management behaves as it does. It's a shame for the countries that don't have one.
This has nothing to do with hostage taking in any way.

I can only agree with that.
I find it quite presumptuous and impetinent to speak of hostname in this matter and to refer to it in this way

I don't feel like a hostage of the workers council.
It is one of the most important tasks of a workers council, to fight for the rights of employees; and that what they do currently. And it's appreciated.
Of course it's possible to fire people, but you have to follow laws and rules.
And this should be checked properly.

I simply do not understand the workers' council in the countries that are still "red" as Keylop's management calls them (It's Germany, Italy and the Netherlands). I have heard that the workers' council in Germany and possibly also in the Netherlands will now go to court, but for what reason? A company like Keyloop is allowed to fire people if their position is closed down, right? I know that in many of the "green" countries it has been possible to fire people in the workers' council, even though in many places they are "holy". The workers' council is just trying to postpone the inevitable, while holding all their employees hostage, in games that they can only lose. People are going crazy over not knowing their future, they need a redemption so they can move on with their lives.

"...cut in average 10% of employees"?

In Denmark and Italy nearer to 50% have been axed, in Switzerland about 100%, and in Germany employees and management are no longer talking unless the lawyers are doing that talking.

Would you want to come back and work for Keyloop if they fired you in the manner they did. I would not for sure, if they can do it once they can do it twice

I've heard from my manager (i'm in support), that the KLT and Senior Leadership have admitted that they have made a mistake on letting to many people go and also without consulting with the lower level managers, so now he and other managers have to go and ask people who they fired, to come and work for Keyloop again..... A curiosity is that the laws in my country and the agreement between Keyloop and workers union, says that if a company by mistake fires to many people, all employees, including those who come back are "safe" for two years :)

I've only heard of one so far. But he hadn't been there for long so wouldn't qualify for much redundancy and didn't have anything to lose. They did give a decent settlement, for me anyway.
