Based on my understanding think Cameron mentioned that they're aiming to provide an exit for investors and hinted at the possibility of selling some assets. Does that mean an entire department could be impacted by this? Also, what were your thoughts... — read more 

Have you heard this mentioned in Town Halls? Do you know what this is? Plainly stated there is a large budget for the people under Ryan (surprise!) to hire people and purchase new technology. Sorry to everyone who was fired so that the tech boys can... — read more 

Apparently there is going to be another wave early next year just to give a heads up

Any truth to the rumor that GPN may be ending one or more of their long term cloud contracts early in favor of Microsoft?

My last day was supposed to be the 27th. Got kicked out of all systems and my phone by changing the password, yesterday the 13th. I was supposed to have my last 1on1s with my team and other leaders this week. Well good bye friends and fu-k you global... — read more 

How did you feel about today’s all-hands Q&A with our new CIO? It seemed a bit odd that they disabled the option to comment anonymously. He talked a lot about transparency, promotions, remote work, and raises this year, but Shannon said the same... — read more 

Does anyone have anymore info on round 2 layoffs? I had heard we are done with this batch, but GP2025 continues on. When are the next round?

Cyprus team regained its power by removing all US PRIME leaders. And all US development resources are assigned to Devops leadership in Cyprus who know nothing of modern development technologies, but are masters of excel sheet. God bless GP! "In... — read more 

Laurent's Org here. They promoted a lead (supervisor) of 2 year experience to a Sr. Director role over, a Director (13 yrs Exp), Sr. Manager (15 yrs Exp), and a Manager (10 yrs Exp). WTF is going on? If they don't fix this asap, this team is going... — read more 

I’m interested because leadership has been playing coy about numbers while also managing to be very unprofessional in communicating this round of layoffs. I’ve imagined it must be a rather high number.

Guess the changes in workday are happening now. My new boss just approved my timesheet for the week. Still have not heard from her. We will see what Monday brings.

For those of you who gave us the heads-up that these layoffs were coming, your posts were spot-on days before it all went down. I think we all owe a debt of gratitude for coming here and letting us know in advance. It is very much appreciated, and... — read more 

Would there be any benefit to unionizing ?????

I’m confident work will be even more chaotic from now on. And that will not change any time soon. No way in he-l a bunch of incompetent managers will be able to sort things out, led by people who have no plan or vision beyond cutting costs. — read more 

I have not even heard from my new manager other than a Google chat that said, I would be reporting to them. We are not even in the same company. No direction. No clue what I do each day. I don't blame her. People are lost. Can't wait for the next... — read more 

Wonder how this meeting will go? How will he try to “make us feel better?” Blow sunshine up our a—?

Let them sort out the problem they created. Let offshore teams do the work. Never solve problems others created, never take on the responsibility for anything that doesn’t strictly fall within your usual scope of duties. They want less people on the... — read more 

I see they laid off some of the most talented people. Once it's time to rehire their replacements, they'll have to hire two or three to replace one. In the end, it'll end up being more expensive and less efficient instead of keeping the original... — read more 

The massive layoffs did not take into account the impact on the client. Due to indiscriminate elimination of positions there will be impact to the client. Are they more concerned about bottom line and not the service they provide to the client?... — read more 

I don't believe we're done with layoffs. I don't care what they're saying. I don't think they're above lying to us to make sure productivity does not drop just to yank the rug from under us once again. I've already started looking for a new job and... — read more 

I continue to be disappointed by large companies who complain "it's so hard to find good workers", "we can't seem to retain good talent", and "no one wants to work anymore", but continue to have regular rounds of layoffs where they let hardworking... — read more 

With the week from he-l behind us, how is everybody feeling? I'm still in shock, to be honest. I was not affected, but too many folks I know were. Knowing how good at their jobs they were just makes it clearer how small of a role merit played in... — read more 

There's bitterness and angst in posts on this site and in the reorg meeting this morning about why there was no notification, managers kept in the dark, no explanations of criteria for who got the axe. I'm not a manager or corporate officer or... — read more 

Completed a reorg mtg about 45 mins ago. They just went right into new org, strategy, putting in our best efforts, be bold, etc. and completely ignored the elephant in the room about low employee morale and layoffs. Almost like they were instructed... — read more 

This org chart is fu---d. People in charge of department they have 0 experience in. Why did they let go of people with 10+ years of experienced leaders?

I know this can be said for almost every experience with a corporate job, but I am now angry at myself that I’ve been dedicated, hard working and didn’t mind working overtime just to make sure work will be done properly. Admittedly, I did it first... — read more 

As someone who survived this round of layoffs and had my direct counterparts let go. Being the last-man standing with no one to cover in my stead is absolutely absurd. The more I hear, the less I want to know. I feel awful for those who were impacted... — read more

How was Warn notice of 60 days not given???

It seems we are entering the reign of chaos.

Why would anyone stay at or join a company where top performers are laid off, not because of budge, or critical mistakes, or behavioral issues, but simply because some bureaucrat couldn't be bothered to find out their name or what they do?

Has anyone been reassigned today? I thought we were getting a new teams/leadership but it’s been silent. What’s going on?

I don't wish for your downfall. I don't wish for your economic demise. I just want you to know how despised you are, and especially the company you work for. We may smile when you greet us. We may act like we care (because we have to) but you and... — read more 

Too many competent and experienced people were let go. I also don’t trust either McKinsey or our mgmt to come up with reorganization which will result in improved performance without us working for three people. But we already know we are the least... — read more 

Considering how overworked we already were before the layoff, I don't think it's realistic to expect us to take over the work from those who were laid off. Unless their goal is to get more of us to quit due to burnout and save them from having to pay... — read more 

I heard from the Xenial CLT office that a new org-chart will be posted Thursday. Deff not looking forward to what kinda sh-t-show we're in for. I've heard that they're banking on attrition to happen, and if it doesn't then before GP25 is done there... — read more
