Is this good?

Something I’ve found deeply unprofessional is leaders openly discussing possible layoffs and the decline of Target culture with a hint of glee. As if they perhaps enjoyed spreading bad news to encourage lower level employees to flee the sinking ship as they could hop onto the nearest lifeboat. My leaders have openly discussed Target’s problems while maintaining their careers for over a decade. One has to wonder if it’s become a strategy to keep their precious little corporate roles.

All to say: if you are worried, stay the course. Don’t leave without your paycheck and a cushion to plan your next step. Target is not the end all be all of anything. Having watched a man get the saddest multiple decade anniversary acknowledgement “party” followed by a layoff the next week… you won’t be missing out on much if you’re fighting over the last life preserver.

Finally our Networks manager has listened and agreed that this company will just keep shafting, delaying pay awards then will make excuses at the end.

His seen his colleagues wfrd in the last year, now his joining the engineers, his offered us free time off whenever we need. If you can't beat them join them. Other colleagues we request you join us, bring this $hit place to a halt.

For once I don't think it's layoffs because they'd be happy to announce that given any opportunity. I'm not sure what it is instead though.

Notifications went out this morning

Teradata announces $500 million stock buyback in 2026.
That’s a lot of money for a company with yearly declining revenue. A lot of people don’t understand that amount of money. Think of it in terms of lipstick. That’s enough money to buy a new tube of $10 lipstick every day for 137,000 years. Wow, that’s a lot of lipstick!

Curious with the recent spate of telelcom CEO changes, wondering who's next in line for T throne? Thoughts..

You all can call me “blur”. I was behind the silent layoffs post. Few people just got laid off in content ops. I know that’s just a small update but will release more soon. Feel free to confirm what I said. Nothing I say is a lie. I work for the people. F these corps. See ya later skrrr.

It looks like another round is starting at Hughes this week.

This month will there be IA for the 13,000 working through it ? Heard mixed messages

My store is turning into a Russell Cellular. Any thoughts on them? So far, Im not impressed with their communication and the commission seems very low compared to what I am making now.

I'll be writing nothing but small orders for Christmas. This B's company does not give us help to work deliveries but want us to Load up stores so the product can sit in backrooms. Door to floor only from hear on out.

Do we have sufficient seats ? any news ?

Free weekend meals going away
What else is getting taken away ?

PepsiCo called they want their toxic CIO back lol as pep employees are having a field day with all their toxic bosses.

I joined this company when it was still considered a start-up and was part of its incredible growth during Covid, as well as the major decline it is now facing. Here are some things I noticed.

Management is not in tune with the market.

I hate to say this, but numbers were falsified during the CG buyout, which caused a hard fallout between the former management and CarGurus.

Many of the leaders who are still there are in over their heads.

CarGurus hit the panic button and laid off too many people at once, which led to a decline in dealers on the platform.

During Covid, CarOffer sc--wed over a lot of clients, which resulted in our reps getting kicked out of 20-group meetings and Auction Access taking rights away from CarOffer.

Everything down..... Wtg btc

There are still a lot of stragglers in Winston-Salem, NC. I know the building's being cleared out and sold, but I still don't know many people that have been told anything.

I can tell already this is going to be another useless "training"...

How much longer before you let employees know that we are being sold to another company...

CPC is this week, what is the drama from any who are attending?

Is it just the year end rating you get? Or something else too?

it seems the actual CEO is absent from the EC committee, and she seems to only be present as a cheerleader, and absent from any meaningful actual leadership. Does the board make all the seemingly confusing decisions? is it made in a vacuum by Mason or Gibson? I'm genuinely confused as a a newer employee here...

For all those who mocked the once great competitor, is Xerox about to face its very own ‘Kodak Moment’ ?

Given all the pseudo prognosticators of dark times, I haven't heard of any notable layoffs this year in Dearborn.

Is it true?

Any contractors heard of anything regarding their extensions for 2026?

TIA

How many account people and upper mgt above dm level signed up to help in stores this weekend..

ZERO in my area , but let me know if I can do anything to help in stores🤔😂

it's confirmed that Vz India is going to see layoffs this coming week - Probably around 3rd or 4th Dec. A bunch of us are asked to WFH this week while the others aren't. FYI - When layoffs happened in 2017, the employees were shown the door the same day. Which group of people are getting laid off in this scenario?
