Has the notification date been announced for summer Wave 3 layoffs?

Enough with the weeping and hand-wringing. You’re getting paid to walk away from a place that probably drained the life out of you. That’s not a tragedy. That’s a win. Some of us would ki-l for that kind of exit. So take the check, take a breath, and... — read more 

San Ramon office, various orgs received surplus notifications. Any idea on which groups were affected?

It su-ks how little info there always is when layoffs are happening. It'd be nice to at least know what's being targeted. But I guess all we can do is guess and pray it's not going to affect us, because we certainly aren't going to hear anything... — read more

End the RTO B.S. and stop tearing families apart. What if we all just didn’t go?

Legg has failed to meet expectations. DEI nonsense and RTO avoidance, little Jerry cant face the music!

This will be the first quarter of full RTO shown in the earnings report, how will Stankey and Legg justify the poor numbers?

I hope Stank retires soon and McElfresh doesn't replace him as CEO. We need someone who is okay with reducing all the waste (like corporate real estate) and can get us back to working like a tech company that sells connectivity instead of factory... — read more 

Last count was approximately 141,000. They are ramping up labor reductions again so that number could fall faster than the last few years. Of course some of the numbers will be hidden with the Lumen acquisition.

Stank got his pa-ties in a twist last Friday afternoon because EXEMPT MANAGERS were leaving at 3:30 pm. Lol!!! Sent out memo demanding reports are triple checked to be sure hub managers aren't skipping out too early. But the 45% of his employees... — read more

Was told today there are talks of getting rid of Power group in SE and moving responsibilities and techs back under 4 wall management to reduce inefficiencies. Anyone got any info on this?

It’s just a matter of time before they start giving out finger traps and having waffles parties as incentives. Oh wait, that’s been happening for years. All hail Lumen!

Was great hearing from our CTO today at the TDP space on the 5th floor. Lots of wisdom imparted on us
