What a horrible year

And ending on a low note. So sorry for all who were laid off, being laid off or are still here. Whatever happens in the near future, one thing is certain - we’ll have more layoffs. People who can afford to leave, or are in the process of finding... — read more

How many employees leaving on 12/13/24?

Anyone know about total number of employees or estimated number scheduled to leave the company tomorrow? Would there be any more rounds of layoffs before the official sale?

Back to where we started

A year later, give or take 3000 jobs, $30 millions of dollars in proxy fight, millions in fees for the fiber review, $300 million + in cost savings, shutting down offices, and the stock is right back to where it was when the fiber review started. ... — read more

Considering a change

I'm so over the constant layoffs and stress about job security. I’ve been thinking about walking away, but the unknown freaks me out, to say the least. I guess it's hard to let go of something familiar, even if it’s not ideal. I wonder, for those who... — read more

Changes at the SP buildings

Seems like they are planning to eliminate one of the SP buildings as a potential work location. Is there enough space in a single building? They are doing something similar in Houston.

Blame Game

It’s comical to me how millennials get blamed for the direction of the company and constantly get called entitled. Just because your kid is entitled because you raised them that way, doesn’t mean we all are.

Retiring early

A lot of people are deciding to retire sooner than they expected. It makes me curious about what’s driving that decision. I’m not a big fan of Crown, but I don’t think the situation is bad enough to push people into early retirement. Is there... — read more

Newest SEC Filling - Blackrock

Before everyone freaks out like some did from the last filling, Blackrock only increased their existing holding by ~7%, or ~2.8 million shares to their new total of ~44.5 million shares. They did not just now buy 10% of Crown shares, they only... — read more

Like it or not most everything that happened to crown has been called out here before It happened. You got a bunch of spammers on here saying this saying that, probably about one out of 25 threads are factually close to the truth. Most of you joke... — read more 

Tough year(s)

I’ve given up on CC. I’ve been putting minimum effort into work since the last round of layoffs and have dedicated all the time and energy available to job search. There are other options there and none of us should really care what will happen with... — read more

Done with this place

I can’t take this anymore. This place is toxic, and nothing gets done. I’m out soon, no way I’m sticking around in this nightmare. I feel for the people stuck here, constantly living in fear of layoffs. It’s miserable. No paycheck is worth this kind... — read more 

Just switch off, guys

I know we are all anxious about what is going to happen. But we can not influence the outcome. Just keep the mental distance, do the bare minimum at work and at least investigate the job market.

What a mess

“You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.” Quote by James Clear that 100% sums up life at Crown for the last 10 years. Arrogance wouldn’t allow us to find a system and stick with it. Constant change with a... — read more

What are you doing???

Make the f-n decision already and announce what’s going to happen. The longer this drags out the worse it looks on leadership.

Low pay

Why is compensation for high performers at the bottom of the industry? Is this normal, or am I the only one being seriously underpaid?

Workplace bullying

Why is this allowed? Not only allowed, but sometimes it feels like management through bullying is encouraged. Somebody here seems to think that if your direct reports are not afraid of you, you're doing something wrong. It's the worst possible... — read more
