I've watched restructures and personnel decisions systematically remove anyone who was intelligent, trustworthy, or actually cared about employees. The company has spent years making sure there's no one left who can lead effectively. And now we're surprised things are falling apart?

I heard that “key” management personnel who interface with the industry in Calgary (i.e. Petroleum Club) will remain in Calgary. I wonder where they will have their office!! 🧐. And, who are these people?? 🥸

But they're also less likely to care about the company, sacrifice for it, or stick around. I wish the leadership would realize this.

What’s the new one show? The old one showed very minimal data points.

I guess those assets in Angola we are selling off aren’t technically being layed off.
But, probably a good thing to get out from under Chevron while they can.

Who’s next. APAC?

It’s hard not to see the company’s recent actions as deeply disingenuous.

For years, we were told that work-life balance mattered, that employee feedback was valued, and that engagement surveys actually influenced decisions. Today, those messages ring hollow.

Don’t forget what the company has done.

A year from now, there may be apologies like Meta did, polished messaging, and attempts to reframe the cuts and other measures as mistakes that went too far.

The narrative will likely be carefully crafted to sound optimistic and reassuring.

But by then, much of the institutional knowledge and experience may already be gone.

There seems to be an assumption that a younger workforce, combined with AI and fewer experienced employees, can simply replace what was lost.

That’s a dangerous assumption. Younger employees aren’t stupid, and Gen Z and the generations that follow are fully capable of recognizing when a company’s actions don’t match its words.

People remember how they were treated.

When experienced employees continue to leave and younger employees follow them out the door, we’ll see where the company is left.

You can’t erase years of institutional experience and expect everything to function as if nothing happened.

The biggest problem may not be the cuts themselves, it may be the loss of trust.

Once employees stop believing that the company genuinely values them, rebuilding that trust is far harder than any polished corporate message can fix.

Video game developer Schell Games has reportedly initiated its first-ever layoffs. Multiple employees shared news of the job cuts on LinkedIn, indicating the reductions began last Friday. The affected departments include marketing, art, design, and visual effects. Reports suggest approximately fourteen individuals have been let go from the studio. These layoffs occur despite the CEO's past public statements against putting jobs at risk.

Are we now officially done with involuntary layoffs for a while? I can't figure out how many people were notified so far and if there are more notifications waiting for some future date.

Post losses here.

Next round of layoffs are planned for Wednesday Sept 30.

Mosaic has laid off approximately 300 employees across two Louisiana plant sites. The affected facilities are located in Donaldsonville and Convent. These layoffs occurred on Tuesday, impacting a significant portion of the company's local workforce. Employees will receive pay through October, though the specific reasons for the workforce reduction remain undisclosed. The company has not yet responded to requests for further information.

Tony p came got folks to change logo, went on DXC holidays and golf trips for a year, and has now issued his email for the next year. Cavery has gone to join another employer. Mary before her wasted a load of money on Manchester and F1. Ask anyone about DXC and they will says its a fried chicken outlet. What a merry go round

"Kumar's leadership across our global industrial system has been instrumental in driving the significant progress we've made most recently in initial quality," Farley said in texted statement after the interview. "His broad experience and unique responsibilities ... have enabled us to deliver our breakthrough results."

Anyone else leave the bank and being subject to non-stop spam from [now-outsourced] talent acquisition regarding the exact same U.S. Bank positions? Four outreach efforts, four different outsourced recruiters, one job posting. I suppose it is difficult to fill positions when nobody wants to join the dumpster. Earth to Gunjan, have some dignity in how you run your bank.

I know there have already been quite a few posts about STCB, but still I wanted to ask again because I genuinely want to understand what the plan is going forward.

For me, the biggest confusion is whether it makes sense to start looking outside and jump to another company earlier than I had planned, or just stay with STCB, take it a little easy, and see how things settle down. With so much uncertainty, even a little clarity on the future would really help.

whose effected? more coming?

Way to rub the outright, blatent, anti-USA descrimination into the faces of your employees, a--hats!

My retirement is non-existent from the share price decimation and this company just su-ks to work for now since everyone hates it.

Bad news for RTO trolls on this site. Joe Russo just confirmed the RTO policy is "not a top down one size fits all" policy. He said he encourages everyone to talk to their managers to see what they need to do to be most effective in delivering business outcomes. He also hinted that more company real estate sales will continue.

Just because FIS is a disaster doesn't mean the industry as a whole is.

Wow... Went to plano for the first time in a long time. PRESS chief of staff has a reserved parking spot and office.... Nutty

That's going to be VZ's full time employee headcount within 2 years. That's a fact!

How do you think this whole RTO debacle will go? Do you think it’s going to crash and burn and Fidelity will admit their mistakes and return to at least some WFH time? Or do you think they will force us to put up with the terrible conditions until enough people quit that will satisfy their reduced headcount need? I need to see a brighter side to all of this nonsense.

I was informed off record by a manager within Allstate that "big changes" were right around the corner in Underwriting. Basically a large amount of layoffs will be occurring in Underwriting. Anyone else caught wind of this and if so are there any details to share?

There have been a lot of comments about the CFO and CHRO of Phillips recently. I wanted to start a thread to consolidate views on these two as I have recently interviewed with both and considering a senior role at Phillips 66.

Can you help me by laying out your concerns as there are some pretty significant accusations on this board about both of them.

What should I be aware of as I would be working closely with both of them.

When did Allstate start using a company called Pilot by Robert E Uhler License 4028069 to handle personal auto policy liability claims? I didn’t know we contracted out our LdU claims.

Nothing useful comes out of them anymore.

Selling, but leasing back for 15 years is what I've heard.

This guessing game is getting tiring.

The word thru the grape vine is that promotions this year are not coming with monetary raises. You get all the increased responsibility, but your pay is staying put.

Finally, I got my first PIP today. Even that I was doing lot of work and in my opinion I was top performer finally my manager decided that I deserved a PIP... Crazy company... I guess, all the posts saying RAs in September are gonna be true...

When Clearlake took over they fired a total of 20% of all employees at D&B.
