Is this really the goal?

Layoffs are every other week these days. Gotta cut cut cut those costs. Still need to get under 90k employees. Only 35k more to go. Eventually it will hit the techs, but I’m sure only the junior most people to reduce costs.
Is 90k something that has been officially confirmed as the end goal or are people just guessing?


“Bill Pulte doesn’t know the first fu--ing thing about how the mortgage markets operate,”

Politico: ‘Sold POTUS a bill of goods’: WH furious with Pulte over 50-year mortgage. This might put a kabash on the ipo idea and pulte himself. But Mike might still want to continue with the layoffs. It’s his favorite thing to do - to get rid of people. If it was up to him, he would just work with strings, pixel and numbers


Layoffs November 20th

Layoffs have already started with multiple Market presidents. Just check Workvivo. Notice there’s some we don’t hear from lately. They gone! These layoffs are starting from the top and trickling down. A lot of Senior Directors and Directors are next. They are keeping them around to deliver the bad news to retail stores. Be aware of any open positions not being filled or weird last minute moves to save good employees from being cut. It’s simple math less stores, less retail employees, less Directors, less R2B and the dominos fall. Be very nervous if you get a calendar invite for a mandatory meeting between Nov18-20. Or if you start to see routine meetings canceled. Most likely you will be impacted in some way. Most executives have some knowledge just look at how a lot of Presidents, VPs, and Senior Directors are silent. That’s because they are already out of the business or will be soon. Go ahead and test it ask about why your President or VP has been off the grid lately.


Brilliant moves by LBT

Watch closely and observe the clinical precision of LBT in cleaning up the deadwood, scammers and imposters in leadership. Absolutely brilliant!

  1. MJ gone
  2. Christoph gone
  3. Saf gone
  4. Ann gone
  5. Pambianchi gone
  6. Lavender gone
  7. Sandra gone
  8. Sachin gone
  9. Bruckner gone
  10. Adding Craig to board must mean he’s getting ready to push someone out

We Could Have Done the Same Thing

ConocoPhillips is in the process of executing a huge layoff.
One thing they’re doing is offering Expressions of Interest for those employees interested in leaving voluntarily. This will give a number of employees the chance to stay that otherwise would have been laid off.
P66 could have done the same thing but that wouldn’t have caused near as much heartache.


Official Wealth Management Firm of Big XII

Penny Pennington announced Edward Jones is the official Wealth Management partner of the Big XII Conference. This figures. A third class wealth management firm for a third class athletic conference. Everyone knows the top two conferences are the Big 10 and the SEC. Come on, Penny, if you really mean business you should do better. Everyone knows you are not a real leader and you are in over your head. That is why you could only secure a deal with the Big XII. While the Big 10 and the SEC have been adding programs leading the NCAA in positive growth the Big XII has been losing programs and been scrambling to pick up third tier programs to fill the holes. This sounds very similar to Penny Pennington's leadership at Edward Jones. While top leaders at Schwab, Raymond James, and LPL take talent from Edward Jones Penny Pennington is scrambling to fill the gaps as best as she can. Penny Pennington is just not adding up. Penny Pennington has already sealed her fate as a doomed leader in firm history.

Coaching Role Transition

I was just informed that our market is reducing the number of coaches in each store. Since I was the most recent addition to my current location, I’ll be transferring to another store in the market. Curious if anyone else has experienced this and if seniority is usually the deciding factor.
