Four time slots are available for this Wednesday. Will Dan be repeating the same old bulletpoints about the layoffs? Will it be a morale boost session about said layoffs?

Can someone explain where and how people fall into the WARN category? Do we need to do anything to be included?

Remember when folks were needed for everyday tasks? Most were quick to take a remote position then. How's that working out for you now?

For all of us left, we need everyone to unionize so they can no longer use and abuse us.

Until the next pay period to get the severance? They can just as easily send it on the following Friday like they pay expense reimbursements. They really want to make our credit suffer and miss bill payments.

Never more true words Jimi

Today we’ll get the paperwork, finally. The AI calculation doesn’t sit well with me. If the company is 25%, how are they calculating our personal portion? It seems they aren’t including personal contributions in it at all.

Curious about the number of people interested in refusing to comply with the loss of the hybrid schedule. The company lied. It is not okay. If we can get a good amount of the workforce onboard, we can demand change.

Anyone know the reasoning behind the EMT going back on their word regarding the hybrid schedule? Such a trustworthy, purplish bunch.

Does anyone know when the severance package is supposed to be paid out ????

I didn’t feel confident in the response that “A PC today might be a finance person tomorrow.” I don’t have faith that we will just get plugged into other departments.

It’s been the most stressful, exhausting and depressing time being one of the survivors here at crown. I can’t handle the stress and emotions anymore. I need to quit but financially it’s hurting me so bad. I have never been so unhappy with a career... — read more

Over the past year the S&P 500 has risen 6.31% while CCI is down -43.92%.

I left Crown 10 months ago. I have to admit that while I feel sorry for those affected by the RIF, I’m also taking extreme pleasure in watching Crown fail. Is it normal to want to see a camp any fail after you’re gone or am I some kind of sadist? — read more 

I am seeing a lot of comments stating that people expect there will be another round of layoffs. Has anyone heard any thing solid about this?

Is it too late to volunteer to leave? I survived but the last week has been he-l. Overworked because they pilled everything on you, no respect, lack of care, just overall toxic environment. They want you to do everything immediately and they don’t... — read more 

When I first stated at Crown, I thought, wow, what a great company. I had never worked anyplace like this before. People were so welcoming and seemed to truly enjoy their jobs. I never heard one complaint. Now, after these past few weeks, most of the... — read more 

Had anyone else had their role reposted, but at lower pay? We had 3 people in our department. 1 manager and 2 subordinates. I was told only the manager role was kept for the others are eliminated. Today I saw my role posted in a different department... — read more 

Did anyone get the paperwork yet?

This is the first layoff that didn't pay the employee side of the Healthcare. All others in the past paid both sides for a set time. Those others also didn't pull 22% taxes on the severance. Stocks were vested immediately and not over various years... — read more 

What if my employer pays me for the 60 days instead of sending me a WARN notice? WARN requires 60 calendar days' written notice. The law makes no provision for any alternative such as pay in place of a notice. While an employer who pays workers for... — read more

I got the axe on Monday and still haven't received any severance information. I was also immediately locked out of everything. Has anyone had this experience also? It is also sad that we must seek help from resources like this website... — read more 

Does anyone know as far as the severance package will the PTO payout include regular PTO and the rollover PTO from 2022? They both show as accrued… Just wondering

Unfortunately it's hard to feel relieved if you didn't get the axe since the folks who survived the cuts this week will end up doing all the work of the people who got laid off. For example, Crown PM's worked a typical 45-50 hour week forever; this... — read more 

Does anyone know how this works? Will we be paying the employee side or will CC pick it up?

Has anyone noticed a strange repetition on the Linked In posts from CCI staff laid off today? “After ## years, I am sad to say that the 15% RIF at Crown Castle has led to me become Opentowork. I am extremely grateful…” How does that happen?

Time to stick a fork in Crown Castle, it's done. Crown Castle was built by strong leadership who found good people and made great teams. The B3 culture and that mindset died when the CFO became CEO and catered to the Financial community instead of... — read more 

How difficult will it be to find a new opportunity for those who get laid off? I wouldn't want to discourage anyone, but I've been looking for a new job for much longer than I thought it would take.

Someone here made a good point: it is better to trust your instincts than to trust your boss's assurances that you are safe. It wouldn't be the first time that someone was laid off very quickly after the boss told them that there was no need to... — read more

My understand is that we will be notified by email. Probably mass emails. Is that what everyone else is hearing?

The rest will have to stay and continue to deal with this bullsh-t. It's not the win many think it is.
