Anyone know which teams and roles are going to be impacted in next round of RIFs (9/17 and 9/18).

At this point…can we volunteer to be let go? And if so, do volunteers get the payout? It’s seems like a better deal than staying behind to drown in work and await other rounds of RIFs… So, how do we get our name on the list?

She has been marked OOO for a couple of days now.

Last week, a significant number of colleagues were let go across the US, India, and the UK. The very next day, UK employees were sent an invitation to a World Su----e Prevention Day webinar. That goes beyond tone-deaf — it’s reckless and cruel. Does... — read more 

To anyone in executive leadership who may read this. It's important that you understand the climate that is being created at FIS. I'm not going to argue in this post for having less overall cuts, but rather to get them over with next time. I... — read more 

I started here a few months ago and I’ve already had to face layoffs. Not exactly giving me confidence in joining. What I’m wondering is if new hires usually get any kind of cushion, or if we’re just as exposed as everyone else from day one? It'd be... — read more 

So many key people cut without a plan. Customers were already cancelling before this The only strategy from executive management is to overspend on management consultants and new roles at the top. No one can understand the org

Fis: cheap twice

Our job volume is about to increase significantly with no corresponding increase in pay. We’ll have to cover the work left behind by those who were laid off, even though some of us already have more than we can handle. I swear, I’d almost rather have... — read more 

This company really knows how to monopolize our lives.

STEPHAINE Selfish Tyrant Egotistical Predatory Heartless Amoral Insensitive Narcissistic Evil

All I see today is news on the new treasury AI from FIS. Nothing about the layoffs. Well timed press to cover up the layoffs? Well timed to make it seem like the "jump" in profit looks like its coming from this so shareholders spend more? Thoughts?

This week was brutal. The rumors are endless, and it would be a relief to know for sure if we can at least take a breather for a couple of days. But honestly, I’m not feeling very optimistic.

FIS placed me at risk yesterday in the UK. My US peer was let go with severance and pro-rated bonus. We are on the same plan yet different treatment as been told in the UK we are not eligible for bonus. Their fake “one team” mantra is a lie. The... — read more 

With all the layoffs yesterday why was there no WARN letter sent out? Is it because most of the layoffs were remote workers so there were not enough layoffs at one particular location to meet the WARN eligibility threshold?

Also heard multiple people voluntarily quit due to the RIFs. Is this true?

Destroyed our great Company !

My manager has a team meeting scheduled tomorrow for all of us. It's going to be like that scene in Animal House with Kevin Bacon. Utter chaos and our manager will be screaming "stay calm all is well!" F it I'm taking Monday off.

How many millions of dollars, including stock options to ex-Google/Lyft resources, were wasted on Atelio! Complete waste with nothing to show for two plus years. CEO/BoD, of course, were not impacted at all for their decisions and waste.

Are we all done for this round? Or do we have more days of stress remaining?

Does anyone have any info about when the hiring freeze will stop?

I heard from my director today that there is another round on 27th or 28th September, i can't remember. The persons who are leaving already know that. Do you have any info about it?

From what I’ve seen, none of it makes sense unless you look at the cost savings. Which means nothing will actually get fixed, but a whole lot of people who truly know what they’re doing will be gone.

Not sure what the plan is. Maybe it's being dressed up to be sold, because the going concern ability of this place is being destroyed

Myself and a slew of members from my team. (But not all of them are from my team, and not all of my team was invited). My assumption is either: "Changes are happening and you were not affected, but we're sorry", or "You were affected by these... — read more 

Does anyone know the tentative global headcount affected by the layoffs at FIS?

Is everyone signing their agreements? Has anyone engaged a lawyer to review?

If we want to continue having our voices seen and heard we need to keep speaking up together. This is the place to do it in unison.

I can't relax no matter what. I'm in the permanent state of anxiety.

Yes, lot's of companies are announcing layoffs But can anyone really understand our org structure? What the end goal or strategy is?

Keep an eye on the waning demand for Labor generally and be prepared eg with resumes and maybe even retraining. Bloomberg today: It’s only the third day of a much-feared month of September and sobering US economic news is already piling up... — read more 

If your team is affected, they're counting on you taking over the work of those who were laid off. That work is not just going to disappear, and they concluded that the rest of the team has room on their plates and can do it. And we all know how... — read more

In previous layoffs, did it usually affect the more experienced, long-tenured employees, or were the newer joiners typically the first to let go? Curious to hear what others have seen in the past.

Heard from a reliable source that mid level leadership and directors are being let go at value added services in droves. No direction for reports as to where the chips will fall.

This is literally my first job after graduation, not sure what to expect or do? Will these cuts hit the university program?

Right-sizing is not about cutting back. It’s not about loss. It’s about clarity, focus, and positioning ourselves for the future. Think of it as shaping a high-performance team where every role, every resource, every process is aligned with where we... — read more 

I know today and the next few days have and will be hard. The way this company is behaving is irrational; the colleague experience is not at the forefront of their minds nor the client experience that is preached about. Although they are preaching it... — read more 

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be nearly as worried about my job here, or about any of us finding new ones soon. We’re so cornered, and it’s a terrible feeling. Good luck to us all.
