Maintenence Tech

The idea that a fiber technician can properly maintain a hybrid fiber coaxial plant with limited hours and frequent outages while also disparaging the expertise of outside plant technicians , and vice versa referring to us as maintenance technicians, is completely ridiculous always trying to reinvent the wheel when you know this Altice Optimum experiment will always be nothing but a ponzi scheme


Any truth in this?

This is something I heard from a contractor company holding a big support contract for Imperial Oil and ExxonMobil Canada. The contractor has been informed that their service will not be required anymore after 2028, since ExxonMobil will liquidate all assets in Canada. Is there any truth in this?


PNC return could boost Downtown Pittsburgh's daytime rebound

They want you to come back for the money. Pack your lunch, no drinks after work, you get in and get out.
"Thousands of PNC workers will return to Downtown later this spring, and the company's Pittsburgh regional head says it could help jumpstart the neighborhood's daytime rebound."
"But we need people to be attracted to Downtown outside of just events and shows. They just need to be here."
"PNC has underwritten $5 million to help Downtown small businesses, Cestello says..."

Trust: Earned over time, lost in a minute -- GOING, GOING, GONE!

Rick Wurster and team, you have all chosen to LOSE that trust, and respect by your BS activities and sc--wing people over with merits, bonuses, cozying up to trump. And I can guarantee that as long as you and your cronies stay in power, you, and the company, will NEVER earn that trust and respect back. You made your bed, now sleep in it, knowing that it is YOU that caused such poor morale and the loss of company reds while on YOUR WATCH!


Are you safe if there's proof you're bringing / saving money?

There's a tool I built at work that, per my director, is saving Dell $1M a year at the least in operational expense. I go away, and there's no one to manage the tool. My teammates are capable to learn coding but they've got their plates full too.

Would this be ( in general, not specific to Dell ), a good approach to being layoff immune or what would be a way to live your life as an individual contributor in big tech companies and not worry every day whether you'll login to your computer successfully?


People with Disabilities

This company loves to bully people with disabilities with micro-aggressions from management and HR. This place used to once welcome everyone and be accommodating but it feels like they are doing whatever they can to get rid of people. It’s very uncomfortable going to work anymore.


It just gets worse, when we were just starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Some of us go to work with the hopes that Intel will get a lucky break and things will stabilize. Some of my coworkers are great to work with, and I've worked for some great managers. We were starting to see a glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel and the light had now gone out again. I'm thinking that HR will let lay me off this year, as I now fall within the rule of 75.

Iowa Legislators Ask Whirlpool to Halt Layoffs

Iowa Democrats sent a letter to Whirlpool Corporation. They urged the company to reconsider planned layoffs at its Amana plant. Whirlpool announced 341 employees would be laid off starting March 9. Democrats cited state investments and company growth in Mexico. The company stated the layoffs are part of a modernization plan.

I honestly hope they'll end soon.

It is astonishing that Belk expects professional loyalty while their stores literally rot around them.

From water-stained ceilings to predatory workloads, the 'Belk experience' is one of pure misery.

They don't care about your department; they only care about how much labor they can squeeze out of you before you break.

I quit without notice because they earned that lack of courtesy. It’s a dying brand for a dying generation, and the day they finally close their doors will be a mercy to the retail industry. Just go away Belk.


Remotes ARE being trageted for layoffs now..

I've posted about this a few times and get downvoted/laughed at but I'm telling you, full remotes are being targeted now. It was only a matter of time... Dell has made it blatantly clear that they want ALL employees local to an office - as in ALL employees go INTO an office - and that remotes are not eligible for promotions or internal movement. Which puts remotes in a literal dead end job. I 100% guarentee they will cap remotes raises to 2% and 50% bonus's sooner than later, as well.

I had my 1x1 w/ my boss/sr director the other day and I asked what the IBP was. He didn't know for sure but, mentioned he laid off a few people (3) under him and saw the bonus payout for them - which was 100% - but, stated that they were all remotes and that was the primary driving factor for laying them off.

According to what he told me, those 3 were good at their job but was told by higher ups and/or HR to remove 3 remotes that reported to him. I didn't know any of them as they weren't on my team but, long story short.. .they were laid off for being remote.

We have a great relationship with each other so I asked out of curiosity if remotes are being targeted more for layoffs. He didn't say yes or no but in a round about way basically said that yes they are, and has heard from execs that the "plan" is to reduce raises and bonus's for them next year. Basically an attempt to force resignation. Exceptions will likely be made for those who are incredibly vital to an org but otherwise, the plan is to slowly get rid of remotes.

If you are full remote but live near enough to an office, I'd recommend switching your sh-t to in office versus remote... Make the drive or relocate if you value your job because remotes are the ones who will be first to go on teams when layoffs happen.


Atleos capitulates to reality, too bad about Voyix

It says all you need to know that, according to the release, the only Atleos exec or offficer being retained is one independent director.

At least Atleos had an option — because that is more than can be said for Voyix, which managed to transition to a software company right when the market gave up on software. Jim Kelly had no doubt been aiming to sell to Global Payments, but that company’s in the toilet too. (The market has given up on any payment companies that isn’t visa or Mastercard.)

The best option for Voyix is probably to go private, because there is no buyer at this point.

NCR should’ve been broken up 15 years ago, when there were buyers for its businesses.


Id--t Hill needs to go

Id--t Hill inherited Nike when the stock price was $85 and in a span of 1.5 years revenues have declined, margin down by 27%, stock in the dumps. He could have achieved this even without the layoffs.

What exactly have layoffs achieved? He didn't even have the ba--s to add Nike to tariff suit.

The pattern is repeating now, at the rest of the company braces for next round of layoffs with even a reduced severance.


2025 STI 401k contribution

I had set up a 6% 401k contribution on my bonus payout to get the full company match. However, the 2025 STI payout paycheck doesn't have any 401k deduction. Therefore, I am guessing there won't be a company match. Anyone else seeing this? I have reached out to HR via email for clarification.


Skydoesn'twork

"Skyworks Solutions (SWKS) faces challenges with declining revenue and rising costs" (correct) "but is still positioned to benefit from the growing demand in the radio frequency industry" (really?)
The stock performance speaks for itself, two losers don't make a winner, do they?

If you are sick - stay home

Nobody wants to hear your sniffling coughing sneezing all day and worse yet become a victim of your super spreading. You can tell when one is around even when they are silent - the air smells funny. FWF for forcing these sickly people to show up and sit in an already crowded space to meet the 8 hours a day, 3 days a week in-office mandate so that the rest of us could benefit from their presence.


Trajectory.

Frankly, the company's vacillating leadership has created nothing short of an entropic mess. Directives are obfuscated, priorities shift without warning, and any semblance of institutional cohesion has quietly dissipated. The trajectory, at its core, is one of compounding incoherence, and without a serious recalibration of its foundational paradigms, disintegration isn't a possibility. It's a foregone conclusion.

Personally, any sense of equilibrium or institutional buoyancy has been wholly eroded over the years, leaving nothing but a pervasive and deeply entrenched malaise.
