Another Layoff?

Will Crown plan a layoff right before our annual bonus? To add - why are we all draining in more work to do, but Crown won’t offer a raise!?

Oh no

With earnings so far delayed, are they pushing out annual incentive too? I thought they cared about us? This is now truly impacting our pockets if so. Everything has been indirect until this scenario… Say it ain’t so.

Should I bring up being on the layoff list?

Telling my boss I wouldn’t mind being on the next layoff list seems risky. It’s not like I could get fired without cause, but could I make things worse for myself in other ways by saying this?

Stock vesting sale

Anyone else holding their stock hoping price jump on sale announcement??

So the announcement

Is coming before March. Before the earnings call. Who's the high bidder? Are they actually gonna continue to postpone it before the call?

Spring Cleaning: Time to Cut the Dead Weight in D&D

With the CISO gone (likely encouraged), how about a proper scrub of the dead weight leaders in D&D? Leadership is a coin toss—50% solid, 50% clueless. Only one D&D VP actually knows D&D and leadership, while another just hides, giving zero direction... — read more 

Years of Service Retirement details?

We have lost a lot of coworkers over the past few years. Some from RIFs, some from voluntary separation, and a handful from years of service retirement. I was recently made aware of years of service early retirement. Does anyone know the... — read more 

The Layoffs from Zayo

If Zayo buys us, i hope you don’t think Zayo is a strong company that is employee focused. Here are Zayo employees commenting on what Zayo is like in culture. It will be like jumping from the frying pan (CC) into the fire (Zayo). Cut and paste this... — read more 

HSA Contribution

Just curious if anyone has received their company contribution to the Optum HSA yet? Or any information as to why not? Last year it was deposited on 1/15, so far I’m seeing nothing but my own additional contributions to my account. Wondering if I... — read more

The CISO just resigned!

We got a department message that RA is leaving the org effective Feb 1. About time there is a shake up in that department. Crown needed to shake that tree.

Silence Since 12/19/24

So what made the sale stall or the talks break down? There hasn’t been a peep since the 12-19 news articles ?

Annual Code of Conduct Training…

Talk about an oxymoron. I guess the investigation in the West revealed the need for a refresher for all of us. If only CC would actually practice what they preach. Instead they swept the unethical acts of a certain VP under the rug.

Before the Holidays

When they said we should have a decision on the sale before the holidays, I think they meant the new floating holiday they gave us.

Layoffs in the next few weeks

Any truth to rumors about layoffs in the next few weeks? I don't buy it, personally, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Once fiber is gone

Gone will be the convenient excuse for the incompetence of leadership. From the perspective of employees, nobody will come out better off. All we can expect is more cuts and mgmt failures.

Purple Kool-aid

It funny watching all the "Crown People" squirm. You drank too much purple drink. Crown absolutely ran the fiber in the ground, not the other way around. Take note, once the fiber sale is complete, the tower side will also be sold. The people in... — read more

Sadly, at this point, it's not about "if" but "when" you'll face a job cut. The best move is to get ahead of the game. Even if you're swamped, there's always time to refresh your resume and browse job listings. It's also smart to reconnect now with... — read more 

Salary to hourly?

My group has just been moved from salary to hourly within the past week. Did this happen to anybody else? I don’t trust Crown at all, something smells a foot!

Miss jay brown

Miss jay brown he use to be more active with the company… even a small message here and there. Or even appearing on the connect page. With a video message…. Well let’s hope we make it to march payout 😀

Bonuses?

Has anyone heard anything about bonuses (or lack thereof)?

Happy new year

I wish for all of us to find better paid and less stressful jobs in decent companies. I know, it sounds crazy. But one can dream.
