Excitement is brewing over the huge Venz Oil possibilities since it holds the worlds largest oil reserves. Temptation to move all assets there could be lucrative. Better make sure any new contract covers overseas relocation and exact wording in new contract for different laws for any country and not just in U, S.A. else that boat could leave without you on board in the near future.

I hope salary folks are watching the offer Marathon is proposing to hourly people.

USW/NOBP CONTRACT UPDATE 2/1/26
Well folks, the situation is definitely not great. Here is the latest:
4yr contract
4%, 3.5%, 3.5%, 4%
$2500 signing bonus
No COLA (Cost of Living Allowance)
No shift differential increase
80/20 medical (same as current)
No retrogression.
No vacation increases.
No retirement medical assistance.
No Al protection.

This should be an eye opener of what salaried employees can expect to lose also. When you “volunteer” to go work strike duty, you can thank yourself for low pay increases and adding 10-15 years to your career when they take your retirement insurance away.

Still pretty shook about being laid off. I was under a contract role which they extended this January so I was relaxed. This friday I finished and submitted a huge query to my manager to scale up and then at 5.30 pm I got a call from my consultancy that my contract has been cancelled due to budgeting and restructuring. My manager has no knowledge of it and wasnt consulted into this. Became we had some huge projects in the pipeline which would now be stuck in a limbo. I loved my job and the team and my mind is not accepting that this has happened.

One of the NY amityville locations has been told
the building will close the EW section affects about 75 employees ,
Employees have been told April 9th is there last day.
Harris lawyers are mo--ns they forgot to tell the customer
they sold the repair and production contract lol. Air Force said humm don’t think so you need
Our permission Mr k lawyers said we are smarter than the government.
The group was sold and closed 3rd week of December.

The irony - People who were responsible to lose the contract are rewarded with continuing employment and perhaps bonus while all people not even remotely connected are fired.

CEO and their cronies - "I take full responsibility and willing to sacrifice 2500 wonderful and talented colleagues for my stupid mistakes"

The Leg T CWA contract expires in a few months. Will they settle without a strike? Who's got the upper hand? Is that power real or perceived? Is the company actually ready to replace workers via automation, off shoring, in house replacement, etc? If workers strike, would they just be doing the company a big favor? Will there simply be a contract extension? Will there be any real gains for workers? Are managers losing sleep right now over the threat of contingency plans? Do some workers actually hope for a strike just to have some unpaid time off work or to play the rebel role like social protesters? Time will soon tell. Does anyone have a crystal ball? What is the meaning of work life?

I’m hearing for the new orange contract for mobility they are going to continue permanent WORK FROM HOME for those employees under orange contract. Then they will hire near end of year for WFH. Anyone heard of possible outcome for the Orange contract ?

Company proposal this week-

VZ eliminating RSU’s for post 2012 hires. Increasing their CPS to 2800/yr
Increased one wage increase by 0.25 %
So 2.50 for 27, 28. 29, and 30 now
3 1% pension band increases

Frontier is a very lean organization compared to us, and 70% of their base is union who entered into a 3 year contract towards the end of last year - basically ensuring a certain pay till 2028. Where on earth are they going to cut when Frontier is already so lean with little to no fat?

Which large contract did Optum/UHG lose in Texas to make so many Housecalls NPs lose our jobs?

The long-term future of a historic Madera winery is uncertain following the expiration of its boxed wine production contract with Gallo. Mission Bell Winery, founded in 1919 by Krikor Arakelian, has been a key player in the San Joaquin Valley wine industry and once employed about 400 workers while producing roughly 10 million cases of wine annually.

Last year, I was informed that I would have to switch to a non-exempt contract because the salary limit had been exceeded with the last agreed increase. Has anyone else received this? It gave me the impression that they wanted to get everyone from the old collective contracts. Has anyone refused this?

I heard OPTUM is to win a contract. Does anyone know if they won the contract to advocate for Veterans/Active Duty?

In MTech, a few contractors working with us (mostly onshore) are gone. FTEs are fine so far.

UHC lost a contract with the state of Louisiana’s Medicaid patients. Anything that impacts UHC impacts Optum. Their relationship is so dysfunctional.

Quit your whining! Late 1st, 2nd quarter 2026 VZ will be hiring back employees layed off through the various contract firms. CEO clearing the books…..not the network! Mark my words! They know good employees will come back running for higher paid jobs without benefits. Mark my words.

Verizon and the unions to start up talks again after the new year .

A logistics company announced plans for layoffs. The workforce reductions are slated to occur in Georgia. This decision comes after the company lost a major contract. The exact number of affected employees was not specified in the headline. No particular city within Georgia was mentioned as the location for these job cuts.

I'm noticing contractors are not being renewed. Is this just a year end hiatus ? Or the bank focusing on FTEs?

Is Xerox planning on canceling the contract with HCL? Who does Lexmark contract with for offshore low cost labor?

FIS lost the FT TA contract, their largest which includes Customer Service because they could not successfully provide the kind of service that FT financial professionals and their shareholders were used to receiving. FIS platforms su-k, the rollout of the new websites was equally bad. So many top producing financial professionals moved their business out, that FT is in the process of taking back their TA. It is a sh*tshow of the highest order. Didn't see this mentioned in this thread. Everyone who was moved over to FIS, will now have to try to get their jobs back at FT. The legacy FT employees did not cause this, but they have to live with the consequences which includes layoffs in May of 2026, if not sooner. Will the shareholders at both locations notice? Which line items on the budges will reflect this total failure? How will FIS sell this one?

Can you take a short term temp/contract job and still receive the warn severance? Would it cancel it out?

Thoughts on automation. Met is pushing this forward along with offshore. I see contracts as the first casualty.

More and more contractors are being moved to different recruiting companies that will ultimately be their last stop. Contracts will expire and not be renewed and in some cases will be cancelled outright. If you have had three or more different recruiting companies under your tenure with HP then you will likely be next on the chopping block. Your $100,000 salary will be taken from you and fed into Asia.

Any contractors heard of anything regarding their extensions for 2026?

Go Colts and Hoosiers! Now that I have that out, time to get serious. REAL SERIOUS! iI was one that was going to try to tell our leaders to give and take because of our hard times. Not after reading these words! The insistence on not listening to what matters to us will help us not bend either in our contract talks. Hold firm union leaders and brothers and sisters.

Any management in here that can explain what was told to them about next steps with contractors?

Have any teams begun laying off contractors this week?

Or its employee only special offer

I am a new employee via contract and 8 months in my observation has been WTF since month 3, when I really got the lay of the land. Beyond the share price decline and lost market value, the organization lacks unity and accountability. There are way too many mid level people actioning work who are not great at what they do or have been told by their boss that they are not accountable for keeping to a reasonable level of standards for collaboration across teams. I’ve seen senior people refuse to collaborate and throw their peers under the bus. I don’t know the history of the company’s decline/ drama but when I joined I had friend at Amazon, Chase and other solid places say it’s a great company- these are good friends BSers. I am curious if anyone here would like to share WTF happened or if it’s always been kind of a mess.

LMs for I&M, CXM, CO techs, contract services, Analysts, Motor Vehicles? I know everyone is going to be affected, but curious if anyone “in the know” has a pulse on average # per AD/SD they have to lose? I’ve heard up to 2 or 3 per SD, including ADs.

The Infosys contract is a predatory arrangement where they deliver nearly nothing and su-k Verizon dry. This latest emergency turn is the first stop on the road to he-l and Infosys is behind the wheel.

What’s going on with Legacy T techs? Big changes to Schedules, Reporting Locations, End of home dispatch for critical infrastructure crews? They giving up on business services? Contracts also up next year.

DXC Selected by Metropolitan Police Service to Lead Digital Transformation Programme
News provided by

DXC today announced it has been chosen as the successful Master Vendor to deliver BPO services as well as ERP and Resource Management (RM) replacement systems, to the Metropolitan Police Service ("the Met"), the UK's largest police force. The 7+1+1 year contract was awarded to DXC following a competitive tender process.

DXC will modernise how the Met deploys their resources, through the delivery of replacement ERP and RM systems, as well as helping to transform certain HR, Commercial and Finance services. It will enable the Met to use real time data to respond better to local needs and priorities, streamline internal processes and deliver significant savings by reducing unnecessary costs. The transformation will also enhance collaboration across departments, improve transparency, and ensure that technology investments directly support frontline policing. 

as you can see the complainers and negative feed back people are the ones that are abusers.
MST home dispatch tech use and abuse company assets. They drive 100K-200K bucket trucks to their home and back to their home garage everyday. Big V8 6.3 L engines use a lot of gas and insurance on top. Also, with MST high pay and only have .5 job per tech a day per tech how is that saving company money and liability.
There are rules to follow when joining home dispatch program. Following the rules helps save gas and time and wear and tear on a vehicle used to drive to work and to home. But MSTs abuse this program from driving to the garage every day and dispatching at the garage. Making a stop at the grocery store to grocery shop in the company vehicle before driving home. Not closing your last job at the job site and instead, drive home and being still dispatched on your work ticket and then closing the job when you arrive home. I follow the rules, and I do not want the home dispatch program to go away because of MSTs taking advantage of the abuse. Also, MST managers are favoring many MSTs and letting the home dispatch MSTs do what ever they want. STOP ABUSING THE HOME DISPATCH PROGRAM YOU MSTs. You know who you are...

Is this like CEOs of the business line and up? I found the salary chart and it says 33 and above do not have a pay scale. I assume 33+ negotiate their entire employment/contract with the company then and are not considered like regular employees?

Last week, a person wearing an AT&T uniform came to my door to promote a home plan.
After confirming he was authorized, I signed a contract for nine lines. That evening, when I received the electronic contract by email, I discovered numerous fraudulent activities.

The salesperson promised the following:
A total of $305 per month for nine lines, fixed for 36 months, free upgrades to the latest phones for all lines, and multiple stackable promotional credits.

In reality:

1.  The salesperson illegally added teacher and device discounts to each line. These discounts cannot actually pass identity verification later, which would cause a significant increase in the plan’s total cost.
2.  The salesperson claimed that any phone could be traded in for free toward a new one. In fact, devices valued under $230 are essentially worthless and have no trade-in value; any damage further reduces the value drastically. As a result, users’ old phones are taken for $0 trade-in value, while they must pay full price for the new devices.
3.  The salesperson promised multiple credits that AT&T does not officially offer, such as phone number transfer credits, loyal customer credits, and trade-in bonus credits. None of these appeared in the actual contract.
4.  The contract contains four different signatures, but I only signed one. The rest were forged by the salesperson, including the most important Right to Cancel Disclosure.
5.  The salesperson intentionally concealed the true billing details, preventing customers from noticing the real cause of price increases. They claimed that starting from the third month, the monthly fee would become cheaper and stable — which turned out to be completely false.

Overall scam logic:
The scheme works by using fake discounts to offer an unrealistically low plan price, enticing customers to trade in as many devices as possible, forging signatures to hide key contract terms, and then delaying communication until after the 3-day cancellation period and AT&T’s 14-day return policy expire. By the time the inflated bills arrive, the customer has already suffered irreversible financial losses.
