confitmation this morning

saw my SD in the hallway - she looked very upset. I asked her what's up and she pulled me into a room.
She just learned she's out. Layoffs will be 20% across all bands, all BUs, all geos, all everything. SVPs, VPs, stores, GN&T, everything. Looks like I'm on the list, too.


WHAT HAPPENED TO SCMG

MISS THE DAYS WHERE WE USED TO BE ABLE TO CALL THEIR HELPDESK AND GET SOME HELP. HASNT BEEN THE SAME AND JUST GETS WORSE. LONG WAIT, WE DONT GET A CALL BACK OR THEY TELL US TO CALL OUR IT AND OUR IT TELLS US TO CALL SHARP. OUR DRS AND STAFF ARE BEYOND FRUSTRATED! I HAVE EMPLOYEES WAITING AROUND FOR ACCOUNTS. HAVE TO WORK EXTRA HOURS TO CATCH UP. AND HERE I AM ON THIS WEBSITE SO I HAVE AN IDEA ON WHAT TO EXPECT. DO BETTER WE’RE YOUR CUSTOMERS TOO!


Leaders Linkdin posts

I find the posts on Linkdin by various leaders at Verizon, to be completely tone deaf. Fancy dinners, and trips to Paris. Sure, it might be work related, but its a real slap in the face to be living it up in luxury while your employees are preparing for the worst. Do better.


IBM CEO: Fears about AI bubble are overblown

Just the usual garbage from AK to justify current layoffs for future AI growth. If you believe that, you'll believe anything.

Security at Home Office

It appears as if security at Home Office is being more aggressive lately. We have been told to report anyone who we do not recognize on our floor immediately to firm security. We have also been told to not hold the door open for anyone after we have badged into the building and/or onto our floors. Is there a security concern at Home Office that anyone knows about that we may need to know about? Is the Home Office safe to work at?


Is there risk?

One of the questions asked was: is there risk of bankruptcy, assuming this spouted from someone who heard one of the many 3rd party analyst saying there is a high risk of such an event.

The answer from SB was: Absolutely not, as long as we execute.

A great follow up would have been; Is there risk of not executing going forward? Looking back we’ve had 12 quarters of not executing, what changed?


Its only a matter of time...

Spoke to a customer today who has had a support ticket opened for months now... support and our product development have basically told him that they don't have the time to address his issue. Meanwhile the issue is a known problem which is effecting multiple customers. Cant share much more but all I can say is how do you expect to market and sale a product if we cant even support it ourselves?


Hate To Say I Told You So!

2%?? TD Mike and AMEX SB Dunk Sathish must really be struggling. Imagine going back and telling HR "we need to cut 2%" instead of learning how to balance a budget. I told yall this months ago it was coming. Told you last month too. And someone wanted to comment on my last post to say "I was making this up"

I hope that person read the news today. Bet they won't comment on my post now...

More layoffs are coming too!!!


How did they decide who to let go?

Because it 100% was not performance. We lost two teammates who were among the best, and we have a few who could/should have been laid off instead and are still here. It really su-ks knowing that hard work will not protect you in situations like this. What's even the point then?
