ARE LAYOFFS STILL HAPPENING ? IF SO WHAT MARKET /STATE ARE YOU IN

I was annoyed when CH emphatically stated that the WCK footprint reduction was not about cutting costs. Yet the very next statement was telling us they overspend. I’m totally okay with LT telling us they need to cut costs. Every decision Shell makes should have money in mind, either long term or short term gain. I feel like LT is more worried about feelings than running the businesses and that underpins why we lag behind. Without Iran war, we’d be failing horribly. Total BS Emma said chemicals would be improved even without Iran. No Emma, taking ethylene and polymer capacities offline throughout ME region DOES mean we didn’t do this on our own. Our record throughput is not because we understand how to run plants overnight. We have no reason for hubris, all Iran war. But alas, doesn’t matter. Investors DGAF so long as WS keeps working towards sewing his golden parachute.

Look at me! I am starting a new role and the company has relocated me multiple times! Strange posts about how great everything is because someone has relocated d times in y years. I guess people feel the need to make sure everyone is aware of their mobility. The self promotion is a bit over the top.

Saw someone with a backpack emblazoned with ExxonMobil future leader. Total cringe.

Since the current RTM promotion date was 10/1 and if you worked over 40 hours last week, guess what? You are only going to get paid overtime if you worked 40 plus hours thru 9/30.

Now that we know major cuts are coming once again, do you think they're going to drag it out in hopes some of us quit because we can't take the stress? It wouldn't be the first time they did something like that.

Or will it continue throughout the week?

I am an SD and we had our monthly sync during which we were told on numerous occasions that no further layoffs have been planned as our metrics are looking better than where we thought we would be. In fact we were told that there would be targeted hiring in fast growing areas within VBG. This AVP has a direct LoS with other SVPs and has previously been right about the Nov and May layoffs. Dont want to say too much as I might dox myself.

Okay, we know more layoffs are going to happen for sure, but do we have any idea when? This month? This year? Later?

Maine regulators have rejected Central Maine Power's bid for a significant rate increase. The Public Utilities Commission unanimously decided against the utility's request for nearly $70 million in higher rates. This decision means average household bills will not increase this fall. The utility had warned of potential financial consequences if its request was denied. Company representatives indicated workforce levels might be reviewed following this outcome.

Software company HubSpot is laying off 660 employees, which is approximately 7% of its total staff. CEO Yamini Rangan stated the layoffs are part of a restructuring effort to improve speed and customer focus. These changes aim to align the company's structure and resources with its long-term strategy. Rangan clarified that the layoffs are not due to AI replacing jobs or for cost-cutting purposes. The company is reducing management layers to expedite decision-making.

July all hands was Second Quarter Earnings All Hands. This one is called Transformation All Hands. Layoffs coming

Many got laid off today.

What's people thoughts? Iam surprised no changes in personal, however a few wings look to have been clipped!

With overall better financials being reported and bottom-line performance, it feels like company culture is going in the complete opposite direction in a decline. Is this sentiment felt across multiple disciplines?

Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger closes after nearly yearlong battle, paving the way for Skydance

How disastrous do y'all think this meeting will be? I am guessing we will be told about exploding costs after hearing about SV and Di's worldwide tours.

It is like they are trying to say, “Better not downgrade us or we will take our football home and not play anymore!”

Now, if that is not Monopoly mentality, I don’t know what is!

Yet another round of layoffs at UKG today. Once again they sent out an email right around 5pm Eastern the day before.

Haven't heard any numbers yet, but definitely cuts to "Support Services". This company is a mess.

What is the town hall today going to be about?

Not been careful with shareholder capital… Yah think?

About time!

I have friends who said most of the night shift got laid off this week. Beware if you are thinking if applying for this company.

Prime Day starts today and normally I’d probably stock up on some work clothes, grab a few Christmas presents, etc. This year? Not happening.

With all the rumors flying around Comcast and just enough information leaking out to make everyone nervous, I’m basically avoiding any unnecessary spending until I know if I still have a job in a few weeks.

And I know Comcast is far from the only company where people are feeling this way.

It does make you wonder about the ripple effect. Layoffs or fear of layoffs → people stop spending → companies make less money → more cuts.

What a great economy.

Just more and more losses

Why did they rebuild CIP to be GIS?

Another sh-t show at the fu-k factory

We should fire him to save money

I have insider information, and it looks like the upcoming layoffs are going to be on a massive scale never seen before! Please brace yourself and be prepared!

So new head of Refining coming back to a company that should have never let him go. A good upgrade for the company but a clear indictment on the current second in command of Refining. Good for the board to see he is not capable.

Any update

Anyone familiar with the Contract Sales Division? The guys that used to sell appliances directly to builders and contractors. Just curious because I worked for a guy that delivered the appliances to sites over 30 years ago. I always wondered what ever happened to those salesmen. I'm pretty sure the company I worked for went away several years ago.
