Or in the last year? Last five years? Last 10 years? I can’t think of a single thing! Get rid of the overpaid org. We are better off without them.

Thanks to our id--t lobbyist we are totally screwed. I am curious how the guy was ranked. Would possibly confirm our system sucks at picking talent.

If you are a VP pet with a sponsor you will receive a raise in 2021. I have already received mine.

If the match is back the COLA should be back as well. Did anyone else in the company lose more than just their 401k match? We lost the cost of living adjustment before the match went away and it has yet to be restored. Did anyone else lose their... — read more 

Anyone know the lobbyist who thought he was in a job interview but was actually talking to Greenpeace? Was he on a PIP? Can’t believe he was saying things he did. Embarrassment to himself and the company to say the things he said.

Take away pension, and drop the idea of any 401k matching, cut salaries in half and no promotions in the next 15 years. This is the price for the sin committed by those who participated in ergo pretense, power point finessing, and handrail holding. — read more

They have given me 21 days to decide between PIP or PIL. Very demoralizing.

Downstream Canada forum announced an above field study under HW3 and how it can impact headcount. Anyone have details on this and what groups will be targeted? Thanks.

Been promised since April, still not available at the end of June. Embarrassed to let employees see how much they lost with the 401k match whacked. This would be a good time to ask, remind me again how much of a compensation hit DW took?

I know they are supposed to start in July, but does anyone know if they will happen at the beginning, middle or end of the month? I am in EMIT if that effects it.
