Sounds like all departments in both companies have been told the last two levels of Orgs will be settled in late May through June. This means mass layoffs at this time. Curious if anyone is being told different, later in the year etc. I know some at... — read more
No vision, no future, no strategy
That's this place in a nutshell.
When is hGP promotion cycle and when do bonuses get distributed?
FIS and WP promotions took place in July (first pay period) and that's when raises go into effect. Is GP traditionally a different time in the year? And does anyone know if we will move to July for the whole company, or whenever GP usually does it?
Do you know what I hate?
We used to have job security. No matter what, I knew I had some stability. I could buy a house or a car because I felt safe. Now my mortgage feels like a noose around my neck since I can't tell anymore if I'll have my job from day to day. It's really... — read more
Summer Friday/Summer Wellness Days at GP?
WorldPay got an extra PTO day each summer and could do Summer Friday's and log off early. Does Global have something similar?
GP recent job offer
Just got a recent job offer from global payments. I will be working with genius but makes me nervous with the acquisition and layoff consolidation.. any recent news in regards to plans? What’s going on
How many heads so far?
Just curious if anyone knows how many people have already been let go this year, and what they're trying to reduce down to. If you take all hGP and hWP combined at the start it was around 27k people, right?
For US employees - WFH means your time is coming
From a meeting today if you are WFM you won't be able to move internally. All new roles are in office. The unsaid part is also if you are WFM expect to be treated differently from now on. Less or No promotions, more scrutinized, first on the... — read more
Too many chiefs
Feels like five managers for every person actually doing anything. Someone told me when I started that one percent of people do ninety nine percent of the work. They were right.
July 1st Reorg
Based in Europe in the Product org. We were told this week that by July 1st they will have the reorg pretty much done and seems like layoffs are coming due to the TAM. What's other orgs hearing and what region are you in?
RETURN TO OFFICE
So why is it that some people feel this does not apply to them. Don't get me wrong. I was wfh the majority of the last 2 years, but I enjoy seeing my coworkers in person. There are entire offices and teams that dont come in even though this was a... — read more
RIF in Tech Org
An all hands invitation was sent out this morning for April 1 GP and WP leaders on it and I hope that they have some information to share instead of an hour of word salad slop.
It's exhausting! RIFs are soon to come in technology!
It's simply hilarious. Goals due, but no direction from leadership. Some orgs haven' been shared yet. No idea what to expect when L3 in technology is and what it means when it is shared in the next week and what that means for everyone under the... — read more
Curious
Is there anyone from Worldpay here that can offer some insight into what kinds of communications they are receiving from their leadership?
Office locations
Does anyone have a list of Americas office location addresses?
Legacy
Ongoing rolling layoffs are being executed without a clear audit of role impact or transition planning. The result is predictable: critical responsibilities are disappearing, remaining teams are absorbing gaps, and service quality is starting to... — read more
Leadership Accountability for Layoffs
Layoffs are not a strategy. They are a symptom of failed leadership. Layoffs impact millions of people annually, with approximately 19.2 million U.S. workers being laid off per year. Too often, are wrapped in fancy words like “realignment,”... — read more
Legit Question
Do we really think the company will lay off all merchant facing jobs and move to the Phillipines? How could we do that and still be an American company and publicly traded? This is alarming to think we could lose our jobs just because cost is... — read more
Has anyone heard anything new?
Last week was really quiet. Should we be worried about next week?
Think layoffs will keep going next week?
I could really do without another stressful weekend.
Are the reorgs/layoffs impacting all orgs?
We're getting next to no information from leadership where I am.
The end is near folk's
Heard from strong source that cafeteria contract is not renewed. Closure imminent!
Any updates?
Should we expect more layoffs? Has anyone heard anything?
Severance package
Pretty sure more Layoffs are coming for us. Can those recently let go please let us know what the new severance package is so we can all prepare
New Graduate Layoff Question
I recently started as a new graduate with under a year of experience. How likely is it that I could be laid off? I would provide more details, but I am concerned about revealing my identity.
Why is it so hard to keep us in the loop?
They're treating layoffs like classified information, and it's only making us more anxious. No idea which areas were hit, how many people were affected, or when the cuts will end. Great. A little transparency would go a long way, but apparently... — read more
What's getting hit?
It's so quiet where I am it's making me paranoid.
how is the job market?
for typical roles? anyone with experience? axed today. any tips on what to do or not as i start the search? it seems that everything posted on linkedin gets 1000 applications. feels impossible. godspeed.
Not sure which is the worse option
If I'm laid off, I have to deal with one of the worst job markets in a long while but at least there's severance to lessen the pain. If I'm not laid off but others on my team are, at least I'll still have a job but at what price? We'll be expected to... — read more

Am I getting this right?
Did impacted people only receive an email telling them they're laid off? If it's true, shame on this leadership for not even pretending to give a damn about any of us.
Process for returning equipment?
Has everyone received the recent email from Team Communications outlining the updated process for returning team member equipment? I want to confirm whether it was distributed to all employees.
Severance package
For those impacted by this round of RIFs- what was your severance package offer? And when does your insurance benefits end?
2/23 Layoff Tracker
If layoffs are happening today it would be helpful if people could post their title, location and how they were notified.
Buckle up
Why do we never let people know who have left or has been laid off. Everything is one big secret. Maybe its different in other divisions but here in our schools division, communication is a joke. Then you expect us to believe that as managers you... — read more
Project Converge
Not sure how many have heard of Project Converge, but it starts tomorrow. It is secretly tied to multiple initiatives in WAVE 2025 where we are marching towards significant staff reduction costs since Worldpay has merged into our organization. Drive... — read more
I'm so nervous ahead of tomorrow
I have been unable to relax this entire weekend. All I can think about is whether I'll still have a job come next week. I'm as prepared as anybody can be, but with the current job market being the way it is, no matter how prepared you are it doesn't... — read more
Is 2/23 RIF day for sure?
Anyone know with certainty? Any details?
Return to office
With the pending cuts and return to the office , I would like to know will the office be providing free coffee and lunch at least one day a week? Am i going to have equipment at the office and at home? I should not have to carry my computer... — read more
I'd volunteer if I could
I know many people are scared of layoffs, but I'm so fed up with this place that I'd welcome a severance package. Yes, I know it's hard to find a job right now, but I don't even care. Show me the money and I'll happily walk out.
