What is happening tomorrow?

At least 30 people, up to the director level. Not a big number but converse doesn’t have any people anyway.

Heard through the grapevine that the policies around age based employment protections have been updated and that employees with NRE status will no longer have that protection. Has anyone else heard of this?

Is there a US based layoff coming in the next month? Wondering because we have all hands scheduled in the next two weeks so seems like it might be weird to have an all hands during layoffs

Dow? Up. Nasdaq? Up. S&P? Up. Xrx? DOWN 6%... Xerox word salad no longer served with, "headwinds."

All European companies hire McKinsey to understand how they can run their business better. But McKinsey is not working for the benefit of these companies or Europe. McKinsey is working for the benefit of billionaires in the US.

Recently McKinsey asked Volkswagen to close 8 of their 10 German factories and lay off almost everyone.

McKinsey is also the reason why the executive board want to fire SAP employees. This entire narrative that SAP should fire almost everyone and replace them with AI comes from US billionaires through McKinsey.

My hot take is that SAP should fire McKinsey. It will save millions that we give them each year. And SAP should focus on innovation instead of using stupid US marketing and laying off employees and making customers angry. Christian Klein is only doing all this because he plans to join the McKinsey Germany board after he leaves SAP. And that's wrong.

Can anyone share the NN75 store list for 2026? Want to see which stores are being targeted for improvements this year. Hopefully more will be worked on the the southern stores.

At the last town hall they said layoffs were done and we had the right people in the right places. But more people were rif'd last week. Not sure what to believe.

I thought John Bruno was the master of the word salad …. But KK is the new champion. Any idea what she actually said in her monologue

So is it officially gone or what? I’d rather be told it’s discontinued than be told it’s still waiting for approval.

what are u hearing.

On Employees that are fully remote in claims with no offices? Are they moving the jobs to the hubs or no, and staying fully remote?

Post any high level details of what you are seeing this morning (or if you were impacted).

On the goodbye call.

Anyone notice they don't have availability listed on their NAR excel sheet that they email each Monday am? Mine only goes until end of May 2026 and should be for 64 weeks. I noticed this a few weeks ago and other provider IDs were still showing availability.

Please post here throughout the week if you hear anything about the potential 3/19 RIF, information is power....

Who is the target next week ? Virtual / managers or everybody

Ive got oil routes, headwinds, "the street loves us", and "Moor deffikult disisshuns are gonna be madt".

Everyone's free space is (insert random phrase about household economics that doesn't apply to running a business).

If you have "comming out better than ever" go ahead and mark that space now too

Y’all have been unconscious on ventilators since Ursula “burns it down”. She infected Xerox with the ACS virus then turned the Company into a Zombie entity shedding that albatross . She was in our location in Lewisville, Tex the day Carl Icahn (zombie ki-ler) announced he was seeking control. Talk about losing at checkers vs winning at 3d chess. That you are still all living the Zombie dream is just sad. Sorry. I retired early in 2017 after 30 before the vrifs got infected. Got salary and medical continuation and a pumped lump sum due to rock bottom interest rate/ annuity RIGP calculus. Go find an AI product sector job or a AI data center job or ai supply chain gig or ai power generation and consumption scaling job now-and stop your Zombie chittering and infecting other good flesh. Xerox is just a zombie “last of us” island
Get out!

My mental health has taken a nose dive by working at this company and weirdly I wasn’t included in the recent round of MIX layoffs and I actually was hoping that I would be. I’m talking to a psychiatrist about FMLA at some point for mental health and I’m wondering if anyone’s had experience with that and found that when they came back to work that they just ended up getting laid off anyway and or should I just try to gather my notes and ask for a package?

Engineer here, first job out of school. I thought I was the luckiest when they offered me the position. Three years in and I have no idea what we're even doing. They've messed up from every angle you look at it, and the worst part is they're not even trying to make it better. It's like they can't decide between short-term savings at any cost or wanting to be a competitive company. And it feels like they've given up altogether.

Do we really think the company will lay off all merchant facing jobs and move to the Phillipines? How could we do that and still be an American company and publicly traded?

This is alarming to think we could lose our jobs just because cost is cheaper in a third world country. Is this what worldpay does? I heard they are closing most buildings down at the end of the year, except Cincinnati, Atlanta, Rochester, and Jacksonvill. Is that true? Thesis is scary times. 😢

Nothing they do makes any sense. How long have they been keeping us on edge with the reorg and layoffs now? And through it all, they keep making these "strategic" moves - strategic, apparently, to someone who hasn't glanced at the news.

Last year during March 19th they had layoffs of corporate employees, tech was hit the hardest. That was due to a series of decisions they made during a leadership offsite. Similar pattern this year (late Feb) they had a leadership offsite. From what I had exposure to they are finalizing headcount and growth, but also eliminating anything that isn't a priority for 2026/2027 (even if it's needed to manage Wayfair ops and technology). This all depends on how well your L6/L7 told your STO story.

Something is coming but I not sure about the scale or when. This could be a series of small restructures or a wider riff. I suspect March 16 to 30th we'll hear something. Please share anything you know to support your peers.

how is mas treating you guys?

Not another surprise. Turns out Nielsen was measuring it wrong??

Why do we basically give everything to a liquidator instead of marking down items for members to buy? First the buyers over buy just about everything and then all the stuff goes to a liquidator..

Mike Lyons has said repeatedly he cares more about the long-term goals of the company and not trying to do as his predecessor did with layoffs before every quarterly earnings calls. And that's also echoed with other C-Suite executives who have signaled before that the previous labor cuts have hurt the company's position in the market. Fiserv can't afford to trim more staff if they want to retain and attract new clients. So someone explain to me why people here keep saying layoffs are imminent because there are no signals of it from senior management.

So now we have to sign a confidentiality and non compete document as a condition of employment annually. Funny. Never saw this before today and absolutely zero information on it.
Thanks Monique

Anyone get the official notice for the WPE changes yet via email? It was supposed to be this week.

And the death knell sounds on WatsonX.

Just joined the bank and surprised about how messy operation is.. This company is a sinking ship!

Other than United healthcare and Optum, does Optum Insight really have any customers? This is not a criticism of the worker bees in OptumInsight, but rather a true curiosity about whether that business is viable or if it's all smoke and mirrors. And if it's smoke and mirrors, when will they be "found out"? I worked fairly closely with that business and honestly, I never knew what they actually sold -- because they could never quite articulate it.

Gotta love a meeting where they announce $12B in revenue and also continuing layoffs.

Coming from Ansys, every single thing about Synopsys is comically bad. It's no wonder they mostly hire H1Bs and people overseas, as they're the only ones happy to put up with this cr-ppy work environment.

Anyone heard anything about layoffs within the US UW division?
