Anyone who says otherwise hasn't learned that lesson the hard way yet.

I used to honest to God believe that if I worked hard, stayed late, and gave everything to my job, I'd be valued and protected. I've learned the hard way that this isn't true. Ford will happily extract every ounce of energy you've got, praise you for your dedication, and then fire you with no notice the moment it helps their bottom line. And they won't feel bad about it. They won't even think about you again. Hustle culture's a sickness.

"Because when explaining massive layoffs to your employees, there's nothing like a performance by legendary hip-hop artist Darryl McDaniels of Run-DMC to make it all go down easier."

At least somebody’s saying it like it is.

I'm starting to go crazy trying to keep all the rumors sorted and figuring out what could be true and what's definitely not. It's exhausting.

Since we are AI all in lets replace the Board & Ceo with AI. Lets lead by example instead of always being a follower.

Looks like we’re getting hit every three months. No wonder morale is in the gutter.

So nervous about today, I can't function!

I swear, I hear this one more time from anybody, I won't be responsible for my actions.

I know that store closings happen throughout the year, but what about layoffs? I've heard they happen each and every January but can't find much about outside of that.

Meaning, has anybody heard anything about layoffs lately?

other than castkles in the sky and building a house of cards that wouldn't pass scrutiny with regulators in a proper administration that isn't as incompetent as the present one (past R or D admins, for example)? He's built an empire costing several million dollars including his own cost to the firm, gotten himself and Citi into a lawsuit...what else?

Jane has rewarded one buffoon after another

and $$$ has to come from somewhere. things are bad right now.

Here are some of the largest and most prominent companies currently sitting near the bottom of their yearly range:

Yahoo Finance: "Boston Scientific (BSX) and Abbott (ABT) are appearing on recent near-low screens." - OK, we get it. It's bad. Not sure about layoffs tho...

We've been weighed down by margin pressure quite a bit. General population will continue to be VERY cautious given all the sh-t that's going on in the country and inte world. Plus this case of a lingering fallout from the botched Albertsons merger - it's a messed up mix of bad things. Now, I wander, how much suffering will be directed towards the employee. I hope for the better, but i am increasingly losing that hope.

That's it that's my post. Somehow we lost this. I think all of us have a hunch why.

That are your thoughts?

Should I open a wager on PolyMarkets?

They shut down second shift. No one is talking. Can’t see this circus lasting much longer.

Penny’s profile image on Amplify news stories feels like she’s laughing at us.

Noticed several different leaders (mostly Directors) had their title in Outlook/Teams changed to “CW Optum Business Leader-Requisition.”

Does anyone know what this means and if it has anything to do with impending layoffs?

time to replace our good old CTO. He is old and not performing optimal. He should be fired!!!!

Some MD's have saved their bootlickers by moving them around to other people under Nawani but data team members n Markets and Banking and International has been hit. That's all I know.. Not sure who or how many or what titles

Ineffective. Politics. Curious what your experience is with a 300+ team of HR ‘professionals’?
What is it they do, let employees know to complete a survey and attend pro day?

I have heard from several people in the industry that Medtronic has become a known quantity. Candidates are turning down offers and recruiters are struggling to fill roles because everyone knows what it is like to work here.

Have people already been notified?

The only consistent message quarter to quarter is revenue declining faster than forecast. The stock price falling into the single digits says everything. If you’ve listened to this company’s analyst calls long enough you know management just pivots to whatever narrative works in the moment and they’re running out of narratives faster than revenue streams. Easily the worst management team this company has ever had.

Exactly what @aq+1kr2bpeh6 said.

Does anyone know what BNY provide as way of a reference to a new employer, specifically in EMEA.

Nothing to hide just curious if they go any further than 'time served'.

Not for good, of course, but is there any chance we'll go back to having one major round a year and being done with it?

I’ve never worked at a company that changes course as much as this one, constantly chasing whichever way the wind happens to be blowing, whether politically or technologically. One minute it’s one strategy, the next it’s the complete opposite, like nobody even remembers what they were pushing six months ago.

Has anybody here worked at AT&T? I might have a chance to make the switch, but reading through their page here makes it seem like I’d just be jumping from the frying pan into the fire. I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone with firsthand experience before I make the decision.

I know people hate the wait, but knowing something major is happening in July is much better than just coming into work one day and being served your walking papers.
