Phoenix Sky Harbor Terminal West

Over a month ago, the airport announced that they are building a new terminal and runway. Construction starts in a couple of years. Funding is lined up. Our Engines campus is in the way of this expansion. The way things are going lately, does our leadership even know about this? Are we moving production somewhere close? Or are we going to find a new home in another state?

Abandoning FDX upgrades?

Have heard from more than one person that FDX plant upgrade programs may be scrapped due to high cost. In my market they have trialed plant maintenance doing the physical cutovers instead of BPs. There are several teams dedicated to this project that would no longer be needed if this is true.


Optum Tech revolving door of leaders

The previous CIO left about 2 months ago. We had All Hands to meet her replacement. We got sent an All About Me questionnaire, supposedly so they could personalize swag and we’d get to know each other better. About a month later (last Fri) the new CIO sent a goodbye email.
No one is has the wheel as we careen towards cliff’s edge.


“Data and AI”

I just learned that AK renamed her org to data and AI. They do neither.

Just a bunch of IT project managers and scrum masters. What a sad evolution from what used to be a good data engineering and data science and analytics org before 2020.

Everyone either quit or moved out of IT.


Netflix Content Chief Departs Amid Layoffs

Netflix has replaced its Chief Content Officer, Bela Bajaria, following a significant workforce reduction. Bajaria, who had been with the company for a decade, will be succeeded by former Disney executive Peter Rice. This executive change occurs as Netflix faces investor pressure to produce more hit content and increase viewer engagement. The company's stock has seen a notable decline over the past year. These moves signal a strategic shift in response to market challenges and competition.

Interesting day

Good move to elevate BC to head of wealth even if inform not sure the decisions of having JD be co! Guess they forgot he learned from JT and BD before him.

Other moves interesting but ML is serious about change and moving towards something new.

Any thoughts? Lots of me OC members!

Go to the intranet home page.

Go to the WE are turning your feedback into real change tile and click the link.

Scroll all the way to the bottom.

Click the tiny little Learn more about what we are not changing tile near the bottom.

The message isn't surprising but the way they tacked it on at the bottom behind a relatively tiny tile is pathetic and hilarious.


Optum Cyber Attack Round 2

Github has been down for 2 full days at this point, and all PADU approved apps are now blocked from accessing github and no one can sign into github.

The only explanation at this point is that there was another Change Healthcare style Cyber Attack or data breach. Even after all that "focus on security" from ESRO over the past 3 years.

Does anyone have any details as to whats going on at this point? My teams have been blocked across the board by this and we are all just sitting with popcorn, waiting for any update, and nothing is coming.


How Can an Organization Survive Without Accountability?

My biggest question is simple: How can a company expect to grow and remain competitive when pleasing management becomes more important than actual contributions?

An organization cannot build a successful future through favoritism, office politics, personal favors, and a culture of silence.

Employees should be evaluated based on their skills, performance, dedication, problem-solving abilities, and contributions—not on how well they maintain personal relationships with influential people.

When capable employees leave or are pushed out while underperforming individuals remain protected, the organization risks losing institutional knowledge, innovation, productivity, and employee trust.

A Message to Senior Leadership

I sincerely hope that someone in senior leadership or among the key decision-makers takes a closer look at what is happening within the Engineering and Innovation Division.

Please evaluate whether the right people are in leadership positions, whether hiring and layoff decisions are transparent, whether performance is measured fairly, and whether employees feel safe raising legitimate concerns.

Speak directly with engineers and individual contributors, not just managers. Sometimes the reality on the ground is very different from what is presented in leadership meetings.

After almost seven years of service, it is disappointing to leave with these observations.

This is not about revenge, personal grudges, or resentment toward any particular community. It is about fairness, accountability, professional integrity, and the future of an organization to which I dedicated a significant part of my career.

I genuinely hope the organization recognizes these issues before more talented and hardworking employees lose confidence in its leadership.

A company grows when its employees are encouraged to think, question, contribute, and innovate—not when they are expected to remain silent and simply agree with management.

I hope someone with the authority to make meaningful changes is listening.
