So many complaints, so little action

You're not happy at TR, I get that. You basically have two choices. You can stay here and continue to be miserable every single day of your life or you can leave now that the job market is for the first time completely favoring workers and find a... — read more

Donde esta DW LinkedIn post?

While celebrating mental health day I noticed that the post about Mexico was removed. I thought DW would be spending time preparing for the Product Blitz Days instead of playing censor.

Layoff vs. Fired due to the mandate

Is there a way to volunteer to be included in the annual layoff group instead of waiting to get fired due to the vaccine mandate? All those years spent dodging the bullet maybe wasn't a blessing after all.

Finding a new job

For those who were Rif’d in the past how long did it take you to find other employment? Were you able to remain within the industry or did you need to step outside to be gainfully employed? More importantly, did you find a position where you were... — read more

Feeling of high school all over again?

That and these courses which I will never use is a huge waste of time and stressful. Honestly I am hoping I am in the next round of layoffs. I feel like I am back in school again with homework and project deadlines. The fork is stuck in me _ _ _ .. — read more

Vaccine Mandate communication

Coming out tomorrow - so expect more attrition in the US with no backfills. Required vax by late November/efficacy December - per Federal policy. Maybe that will alleviate some of the layoffs coming soon.

Customer Town Hall this week

Am I the only one who thought that BP should have put on a coat and tie for a Customer Town Hall? If we have an attorney in a coat and tie giving us "feedback," shouldn't one of our top executives try to not look so sloppy?

Feedback for TR Management

This post is for TR management. It is meant as genuine feedback and is not a wind up or a joke. I’ve been a regular user of TR products for many years. Over the last three or so I’ve noticed a decline in quality/standards in many of the products I... — read more

Replaced after almost 5 months

I didn't think they would replace a colleague who left very quickly, but I didn't think it would last very long either. After three months, I thought he would never be replaced. Well in the end it was replaced but only after almost five... — read more 

Only those who go with the flow are satisfied here

If you are still left at TR, it means that you will do what you have to do to stay, but that by no means say that you are valued. As I look around at who is left, its typically the meek ones, ones that go with the flow, no dissenting opinions, happy... — read more

There aren't too many options out there

A former coworker who was laid off months ago is still looking for work. He did have a few good possibilities but it never went through the whole way. This has me worried. I wasn't too worried about being laid off because I thought finding a new job... — read more

Begging for Employees

Well I kept hearing that there was no issue with employees attrition. However it certainly appears that is not the case. Multiple emails begging for help and offering money. Why did people leave in the first place. Was a good chunk of them because... — read more

You know whats cool?

Being told you're valued and then being replaced by overseas hires you're forced to retrain and welcome with smiling faces! Nothing productive here, just toxic realism.

Maybe it’s just a phase?

Yesterday was probably my hardest day at work after more than five years here. Once again I wondered "what am I even doing here?" I'm bored. I feel terribly bored at work the last few weeks. For a long time I was dissatisfied with the... — read more

When is the next round of layoffs?

Anyone know when the next round of layoffs is happening? The rumor was that Eagan would have 3 rounds of layoffs this year. We've already had one... which means two more before the end of the year?

We work to live. Not live to work.

It would be great if someone could explain to our management that we do not live to work, but that almost all of us work just for the sake of surviving in this society. Will that ever become clear to them??? They act as if everyone should be happy... — read more

Worst mistake ever!

Absolutely no support from my boss and my boss has no idea what I do. Management's mess is put on the backs of employees. Management will scream to clean up their mess. The organization does not "think" about the strategy. My previous jobs I had... — read more

When did you decide it was high time to leave?

I’m not at all happy here, but it’s hard for me to decide to leave because I didn’t get an offer that I could say is much better. A friend who works in one of the competing companies is also not very happy - I mean, it is clear to me that the grass... — read more

The bigger problem is which people are laid off

Do you also think that the bigger problem here than layoffs is that totally wrong people are being laid off? Those who are the best employees, who are the most talented and have the most knowledge, or simply those who should be kept here at all... — read more 

People aren't leaving, they are running away

Everyone is tired of working in this uncertainty. My colleagues who have left these days and those who have prioritized looking for a new job, think that there will be layoffs soon. However, given how many people are leaving, I wonder if there will... — read more 

"Enterprise Centre"

I happened to see that a certain former CTO at TR, SB, is now Vice Chairman and President of something called the Enterprise Centre at TR. What is the "Enterprise Centre" and what does it do?

Interesting TAP Town hall today

Curious that they are striving to be "open and honest" at this point. Wonder how they expect anyone to believe anything they say when there's literally an article from earlier this year implying there would be no coming layoffs:... — read more 

Startling COVD 19 resurgence - Reinstate Voluntary WFH

With the significant increase in COVID cases and new surge in the US, there can be NO reasonable explanation to require staff to report to TR offices until the case count reduces in a significant and sustained manner.
