Anyone else hearing chatter about summer layoffs? Words is attrition isn’t high enough (for example, we have a CEO and a President…) and we will see reductions of lower performers in June or July.

I gave them best score possible. All 1s. 23 points total.

I heard a rumor there would be a silent shake over in the tools team. Teams which are going to be hit are probably CI/CD, Support, center teams. Probably more shakeup coming from the vendor's idea. Anyone having any idea

Why isn't this the top criteria for leaders at Schwab?. So many of them don't give a sh*t about clients unless it's their team that gets the credit. If clients only knew, they would move their money somewhere else
