reality doesn't care about aspirations and promises...

Has anyone moved internally recently? Has anyone had luck or grass greener doing this?

Though not for good reasons. I guess this is as close to relevance as they can get these days though.

When do you think the PE will come in and what companies do you reckon will be the potential buyers?

Not layoff related, but here is another example of why UHG is so hated. Couple denied coverage by UHC for preemie twins in NICU.

Heard that SCM was gutted this week. Anyone have details?

Another Friday email about MCP. The fifth? Tenth? Who knows anymore. The topic changes slightly, but the result is always the same: lots of buzzwords, very little substance, and almost nothing employees actually care about. Same goes for Radio FactSet.

Meanwhile, layoffs happened this week and didn’t deserve a single mention. Is the CEO genuinely aware of what’s happening inside the company, or is he too busy writing thought pieces about AI? The disconnect is becoming impossible to ignore.

Capital One is cutting nearly 300 jobs. These reductions are part of its acquisition of Discover Financial Services. The acquisition is valued at $50 billion. This marks the fourth round of layoffs. The job cuts are linked to the Discover deal.

I'm seeing some linked in posts where people are 'so excited to announce I'm taking a new position as a director in Fidelity blah blah ' where they were formerly VPs. Of course one in particular I saw scrubbed that gleeful vp announcement from 3 years ago from his linked in page. Are there people who took demotions to stay in lieu of getting $hit canned or is this some sort of universe correcting reorg?

It’s 2:30 here at HQ. I’ve met my 40 hour requirement for the week so it’s time to head home. Man I love Summer Fridays!

Not a damn thing. No innovation. Horrible take on human capital. Stay away from these mushroom clouds

I’m trying to wrap my head around the fact that our new purpose slogans are all these military esq phrases “take the hill” “run together” etc. who told them these were inspiring phrases that were going to get us all excited about our purpose?

And I work in Robinson where leaders have to say “glad to be here” in meetings The morale at my plant is the absolute worst I have ever seen it in my career!!!!!! What is happening to this company? Glad to be here, take the hill, run together. What’s next?

Even though there no travel for everyone else , no money, LP and CB (costs extra on a plane) went to see that Investor that now has 6% stake in Prague yesterday. Wonder what they talk about? Why could not be done on teams?

About to have negative earnings for the next few years

No really, why?

Yet another MC or a replacement? Cavicchia is the current CTO, but notification just went out for this new guy (same title). What's going on?

"pump and dump"

https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/verizon-vz-stock-trades-down-here-is-why/ar-AA24RnGp Bottom line Verizon sold customer location data and was fined $47 Million. Wonder how many employees Dan will lay off to cover this bone head move?

Close contact in HR told me more RIFS definitely coming and oh, this will be an annual thing. Good luck to who remains.

In all the 20 years Ive worked here ne we felt so unstable or unappreciated. Dumpster fire !

Great line by NVIDIA CEO.

Is there anything less American than this? F this company... How is this even legal?

If you put on your blinder and look down and support the company like they’re your own flesh and blood, you’ll do well. But at what cost?

Humana gives the bare ** minimum

Ford just reported sales and it's down big time, even with Ford employees discount for all. People are finally realizing that Ford vehicles are junk. Other automotive companies sales are up. GM and Stellantis did not report.

Every team is now building their own AI Agents. it's chaos.

The pencil pushers have recently discovered that tokens cost money. Now they are getting rationed. We are only halfway through the year too. lmao. productivity!!!

Pace Gallery recently cut 50 artists and laid off 50 staff members. This represents a 30% reduction in artists and 20% in employees. CEO Marc Glimcher described the move as a "model correction." He stated the current gallery model is "unfixable" and needs change. The gallery will now focus on representing approximately 80 artists.

We are told we are an AI first company.

Now we are being told not to use it too much as it's costing too much money!

Who is next to get ousted?

The head of the Writers Guild of America East union blasted Paramount-owned CBS News for recent “cruel and needless layoffs,” its firing of “60 Minutes” correspondent Scott Pelley and the shutdown of CBS News Radio.

What the he-l is wrong with you kiss-a-s corporate boot-lickers?

Beth doesn't support families, women, disabled people, and those with extenuating circumstances with the RTO requirements that make FTO impossible. And to add insult to injury, the recent layoffs despite record stock prices and revenue...

Have some god-damn self respect for yourselves.

Thoughts on that Town Hall?
