#company

With October 2nd just a week away, I still haven't heard when/where/how I am turning in my.company car and equipment, what our schedule will be, or what the plan is since FTOW were told this week that the program starts the 1st. I've also heard of MOD changes as well.
Absolute radio silence from my DM. I have reached out to them and havent heard anything back.
Have any SRs that are leaving recieved any details about next week yet?
I have talked to HR about the paperwork but nothing on the subjects I listed above.

If you’re feeling like the machine is marginalizing you or undermining your talents…start observing what is happening to cash cow Guyana 🇬🇾. A classic case of operational excellence meeting over delivery and short term aggressive production guidelines. The accelerated production is starting to manifest its self hard…with well failures and increasing water and gas conning. Every new FPSO will only uplift legacy declines and there is no chance in he-l delivery 1,700,000 bopd for any consistent amount of time, by 2027 we will see -25,000 bopd month on month…it will be shocking…PIPs get intentional

Let’s get back to this HP! We are on the ropes but we have amazing people and ideas!

The eleven rules are:

Believe you can change the world.

Work quickly, keep the tools unlocked, work whenever.

Know when to work alone and when to work together.

Share — tools, ideas. Trust your colleagues.

No Politics. No bureaucracy. (These are ridiculous in a garage.)

The customer defines a job well done.

Radical ideas are not bad ideas.

Invent different ways of working.

Make a contribution every day. If it doesn’t contribute, it doesn’t leave the garage.

Believe that together we can do anything.

Invent.

In hindsight, he said he wished he had not exposed Pioneer employees to Exxon’s “notoriously cut-throat and dysfunctional culture” but instead pursued takeovers of other US oil companies such as Range Resources or Endeavour Energy Resources.

Anyone receive any paperwork on the program yet? The announcement was June. Seems to be taking a long time.

port out and get the “me team” fired! besides my tmobile service is faster. even my friends ATT Prepaid plan shows 5G connection more than Verizon- his wife has verizon and she is canceling

Starbucks is closing approximately 250 North American stores as part of a cost-cutting strategy. This initiative aims to reduce expenses by $2 billion by fiscal year 2028. The company is also laying off over 200 corporate employees, including those in technology and design roles. These changes are intended to streamline operations and enhance customer experience. Starbucks plans to reinvest in over 1,000 locations with improved designs.

Includes a fireside chat between Ed Z and Michael A including priorities and updates in progress.

I don’t know anything, but I would guess this town hall will occur post reorg and layoff announcements.

As I write this, the Comcast stock dividend is at 5.85%. I don't know if Comcast can eliminate that dividend without further cratering the stock price, but maybe a trim is needed? That might be enough savings for now to preserve spots for some people that are on the fence for layoffs?

Yes, Ameriprise has experienced some high-profile advisor departures and industry attrition, though the firm maintains it has strong overall retention and a robust recruiting pipeline

Apparently the chat comments are disabiled arr we in Big Brother Utopia or what? I joined late did anyone reference restructuring or or reorganization?

lot of chatter that design is getting chopped like a douglas fir. anyone got any intel? im hearing sups and og cp designers getting lopped off at the knees. any intel is appriciated!

if we look everywhere online about Fiserv, there’s just nonstop pessimism and bitterness about the company and the stock price.

let’s just take a step back, right now could be the worst of the worst.

many of us here respected Fiserv before that’s why we joined the company or bought the stock.

the turning point for Fiserv stock is probably here or near. it’s always been one solid cash cow business model.

Traditionally we have had performance based layoffs in oct - is that still the case this year or is it november ?

In case you are not aware of the timeline, this is why we are not popping from the news related to Muse.

Stripe launched as the exclusive premier partner on September 8, 2026.
Shopify showed up next on September 21, 2026.
PayPal, third to the party, joined September 22, 2026 (CMO praising FK like he's the savior lmao)

Now a billi to the UofO Scool of Engineering!

PHK really trying to bury last week’s string of bad news. Also, I wonder how Travis feels about slowly losing his inheritance. I guess there’s more where that came from.

How about Unc move some funds to Inc so we don’t have to do any more layoffs?

VBG. Not hearing anything about anyone getting laid off yet.

If you’re still in a corp retail location I’d get out now !! The “3 year” promise is a scam, a lie!!!

Only a million dollar bonus last year for VPs? Times is hard.

Confirmation needed: The USA headcount fallen below 1k or is projected to by EOY.

Sales folks.... we're all doing it but is it true some folks were sacked for fudging their external collaboration stats???

Go back and look at posts from 1 year ago

It's so clear zero progress has been made at all

When you read that we're going to have the worst year since 2022 you know we're about to see a correction. There are a few ways to achieve that, including canceling shows and laying people off. I think we'll see both, and it'll be a bloodbath. The golden days of Netflix are over.

AT&T Is Automating Away Jobs—and Its Old Telecom Empire

The telecom giant is eager to show Wall Street that it can do more with less. That means fewer employees, less electricity, and increased automation.

Train still stalled?

What a waste

This new WE initiative happening - they made a big deal about it on GK’s last company townhall but has anyone actually seen any progress, aside from badge access in MN hub? It’s supposed to help employees reduce the nonsense in their day to day jobs, but nonsense seems to be only increasing.

Looks like a lot of senior/executive leaders are coming for visits and/or scheduling meetings with several teams next week. Would fit the pattern the last few years of delivering awful news shortly after the engagement survey is closed.

Can anybody fill me in on key points of town hall today? I’m unable to go. Thank you 🙏

Is it happening again today? I was impacted last week.

In 20 years from now, Dst name won't be recognized in kansas city. The management that was always in the kansas city business journal will have passed away, the buildings sold or torn down, the computer systems thrown away, the clients merged with other companies, its will be totally unknown to the kids born after 2010. Its gone

The Chevron that I’ve known and loved for 25 years it’s just not the same. Our share of cost for benefits has increased so much, the changes in our disability plans and mental health has been astounding. Did you know that if someone dies in your group now, they send you a phone number? They don’t send Chevron people to help. How does this even make sense? We’ve made so much money this year and we are whittling away. What made Chevron special.
