If you ask two managers the same question, you will never get the same answer. Never. Not only that, the answers are usually completely opposite. So basically, if you need guidance, just ask one and pray that person knows what they're doing, because trying to reach a consensus will only leave you more confused.

About a cover-up....

Houston, Sept. 11, 2026 — The U.S. Trustee for Region 7 filed a formal objection Friday to the DISH Wireless Debtors’ application to retain White & Case LLP as restructuring counsel, citing conflicts of interest tied to prepetition insider transactions.

In the filing, the Trustee argued that White & Case “holds and represents interests adverse to the estate,” pointing to disclosures showing the firm drafted and advised on the DWLLC Intercompany Loan now under scrutiny by the Debtors’ Special Committee and challenged by multiple creditor groups.

The US Trustee’s objection includes a proposed order denying retention, signaling a request for immediate court action ahead of a September 14 status conference. The objection comes as the Debtors face heightened scrutiny over governance stability following the departure of two Chief Legal Officers and the appointment of an acting CLO.

Within hours of the filing, the Debtors submitted a series of Ordinary Course Professional declarations and supplemental notices, updating their roster of routine legal and advisory firms.

Judge Christopher Lopez is expected to address the W&C retention objection at Monday’s hearing. A separate hearing on the appointment of a trustee motion is scheduled for September 23 and will be a critical test of whether DISH Wireless can continue as a debtor‑in‑possession.

The bigger issue isn’t just layoffs — it’s what the organization is choosing to fix versus what it continues to allow.

In some areas like TS & EP, teams already seem very lean, yet people are still being let go. At the same time, other areas such as EA/Innovation in TS & EP continue to grow despite what appear to be significant overlaps in roles and responsibilities.

GCC is another example. There seems to be ongoing conflict between leaders, with teams getting caught in the middle and even being encouraged to Speak Up against other leaders. Common Services also appears to overlap significantly with existing Service Owner responsibilities. In some cases, the teams actually doing the operational work and participating in incidents are barely visible, while common services come in afterward and present the outcome as though they drove the resolution.

The result is an increasingly political and toxic environment. People are protecting territory, competing for visibility and credit, and questioning who they can trust. Friends don’t feel like friends anymore, and leaders seem more focused on positioning against one another than working together.

If layoffs and restructuring are supposed to make the organization more efficient, why aren’t we first looking objectively at duplicated organizations, overlapping responsibilities and layers of leadership?

Whether leadership intends it or not, the current structure and behaviors are enabling this culture. And it is becoming exhausting for the people who are simply trying to do their jobs.

My manager gave me a PIP with objectives that are completely subjective and unmeasurable. This is nothing more than a classic we-ponized PIP move and I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to fight it?

The disorganization, the conflicting priorities, and the complete lack of direction make it seem like I'm watching a ship take on water and keep sailing anyway. Is this just how all corporations work? Because if so, we're in trouble.

Nice move using AIG’s money to springboard you into your next job. Conflict of interest much?!? But you don’t care as your ethics have always been questionable

Looking at recent threads, I couldn't help but notice everyone turning on each other—SF vs. MF vs. Tech, hybrid vs. remote, first line vs. 2nd vs. 3rd line, people of a certain ethnicity vs. others, you name it. Meanwhile, the people actually pulling the strings and causing this mess get a free pass while we tear each other apart.
I was curious if there’s an actual psychological or organizational term for this dynamic, so I ran it through AI. Here is a quick breakdown of Horizontal Hostility (or lateral violence):

“When a toxic leader or broken system holds power, self-preservation ends up destroying group solidarity. Because confronting the real source of the threat feels useless or risky, people turn their frustration inward on their peers instead. By scapegoating colleagues or hoping someone else absorbs management's wrath, people try to buy temporary safety. This dynamic is often fueled by leadership using divide-and-conquer tactics—keeping everyone fearful, fragmented, and fighting amongst themselves so no one unites against the actual problem.”

Classic divide and conquer. Let's stop taking the bait and keeping the heat off the people who actually caused this.

Jeff Clarke needs to get kicked out. He is a an a--hole. No strategy, only here to make money. He is Michael Dell's right hand man, but Michael needs to kick him out..

When what you hear from the CEO is completely different from what he is instructing his directs to do, it’s time to go.

I have a supervisor who has some form of NPD and he routinely loses his mind over petty things. Every colleague we have seems to dislike him. Does Micron have systems in place for employees to work through issues caused by a supervisor with a personality disorder? Is jumping ship the only real option? Has anyone who used the available paths to deal with a truly bad supervisor had any success getting out of their situation without retaliation?

Those all American boys and girls working those cheap Indians to the bone. Keeping all the money and good jobs for themselves. Do they actually think that model will work? What happens when the Indians realise they are being sc--wed by the greedy Cowboys? What about the other folks in Argentina, Brazil, Budapest....?

Why is our HR department so entangled? The uncle of KC and her sister was the previous CHRO. KC and LJ were friends before their rapid promotions. BW worked with KC at another place and gets promoted even though he keeps failing. AH is related to KC's uncle. The new SD WB was brought from North Carolina and put into a role out of nowhere. The list feels like it goes on and on.

Can yall like, actually st-fu now? Thanks.

Can someone honestly explain to me what someone gets by posting rude comments on another persons post? Is it to just stir the pot see how many downvotes they can get or people responding? To really think they are better cause some of us are really struggling is completely unnecessary I don’t get it! They are here on this site yet are just complaining and being negative!

Is this real? In what universe does Medtronic think that coremap will take share from carto. the ceo of that company is a walking scam artist. this company is truly made up of some id--ts

I’m thinking about secretly taking a non IT job without Fidelity knowing, as I don’t think it’s any of their business. Has anyone done this?

Will they find out, and if they do, what are the repercussions?

I really need the extra income. My husband left and between the bills and the mortgage, I’m struggling to make ends meet.

What happened at Polaris? Was it an employee attacking another employee or did some rando walk in off the street?

Frank Bisignano left JPMorgan Chase, one of the nation's largest banks, after complaints about his behavior led the company's CEO to lose trust in him, according to a Wall Street Journal article.

For those that don't know, CUSA is surrounded by woods and open space. The area has lots of wildlife. Fox, geese, and others. All those working there have never had issues with this. Wildlife happens. Enter CFS. Decoy coyotes are now ALL OVER the parking lot and building. Being randomly and regularly moved by the new security guy that CFS apparently demanded we employ. CFS are soft, overly privileged, and clueless. I can't with them. I wonder if they know about the wildlife with no legs that get into the building or the 2 legged varieties that call the river bank "home".

If you post about the misandry at Cummins stating facts....it gets deleted. Strange.

What is going on at CDW?

We have new hires and overseas contractors fighting with current and former coworkers.

So much for being a "family" working together to gain market share and making things better.

No matter how successful and value creative bpx advertises itself to be the new bp will take exception and possibly even divest the assets as it has been done in the past. Expect Hainsville to rename unscathed…gas matters.

I'm tired of seeing coworkers turn on each other. We're all in the same boat. The company doesn't care about any of us, so why are we wasting our energy on each other?

“Transforming the health of the communities we serve, one person at a time.”

If the Northwell/Fidelis dispute isn’t resolved, that’s certainly one way to transform a community of up to 240,000 members.

“We do what’s right, not what’s easy.”
“We measure success by the trust we build.”

I’m sure Northwell is overflowing with trust right now. Transforming the heck out of that community. 😳

In Twinsburg Ohio last week a Uniti Boring Crew struck a gas line they later claimed was incorrectly located by a 3rd party locating company. So far nobody believes them...

This is so out of control. We know who the problems are. Are they going to do anything to fix it? No. So we can call people out and continue name calling or we can be adults and make the best decisions for ourselves. Adding to the tension is just causing unnecessary drama. It really doesn't matter which facility you work for the dynamic is the same. People talk to hear themselves talk. Whether you're right in your statements or not, it's not helping anything. Either the chaos is doable for you or you should be working hard to find something else. Otherwise you're complacent. You like the chaos though, don't you? You can't say these things in the facility, so here you are. Stirring the pot and poking the bear. It's quite immature to hide behind a screen as a keyboard warrior and incessantly whine about so many things. But that describes complacency, no? So, you're kissing a-s too, the managers just aren't hiding it.

You did it!!! You managed to find someone in Skip who’s d-mber and even less competent than you are. Bet that feels good

There are too many posts on this board expressing animosity between the wireless and wireline sides of the business. If you’re contributing to this animosity, you should stop! It’s silly! I’ll explain why below.

One recurring theme is that wireless couldn’t survive without wireline. Way back when, all wireless operators used T-1s and DS-3s and that generated quite a bit of revenue for the LECs. As capacity needs increased, they shifted to fiber about 20 years ago. There are a lot of fiber providers so wireless is no longer dependent on wireline but getting fiber from your own company is better for the balance sheet. Would you rather we paid AT&T for fiber?

It’s also true that wireless was initially financed by wireline but so what? Wireline saw an opportunity and they took it. T-Mobile was financed by investors outside of wireline and they’re doing just fine.

In short, wireless would do just fine without wireline and wireline would do fine without wireless but they are better together because there are significant synergies including bundling services. So stop this silliness! There’s enough drama and nonsense in the company and you don’t need to add to that.

Are we missing the obvious? The administration gives FB government positions with the IRS and SSA, enabling him to sell his Fiserv shares while they are high without liability for insider trading. FB then returns the favor, blocking the IRS from investigating the administration. Simple. Perfect.

Go fu-k yourself.

Enough with the nonesense from certain people.
No one wants to hear it anymore, no one wants to participate in it, no one likes you, no one likes your constant negativity, no one likes your entitelment, no one likes your doom and gloom, we are tired of your nonsense.

So Just Stop. Your continued efforts to stoke bitterness, lower morale and cause drama are no longer acceptable.

When I switched from Walmart to Sam's, I expected a busy workplace, not all this quiet drama between coworkers. There are people picking sides, leaving others out, and making small things bigger than they need to be. I am in my thirties and I have dealt with enough of that already. It would be nice if everyone just treated each other with basic respect.
