Anyone know any details on the Care360 team position wise? Is it a good team to work on?

I am not sure how Verizon's employees will bounce back. I see many creating resumes and trying to find a job. Once the layoffs are done, the employees who were meant to be retained will also leave. I don't understand how the leadership doesn't understand something as basic as this. Every company that has done layoffs, do it FIRST, then go to the press. Here, we are getting to know the fate of the company not from our employer, but from news outlets. That's extremely disrespectful. I hope people realize their self-worth and abandon ship before its too late and Dan decides to come for them.

Jim Farley was surprised to see how much less components and wiring in the Tesla and Chinese EV. Ford did the tear down of the Model Y in 2021 and it shows how superior Tesla vehicle design is. Farley had no idea and Ford vehicle design stayed the same as it was for 100 years. What a joke.

If you are a sales team / MTM/manager and the store manager is asking you to work on your day off but THEY STILL get two days off and are leaving by 4 or 5, file an internal grievance with corporate HR and document everything in detail and in writing with dates. this type of conduct has to stop, belk needs to be aware of these good for nothing store managers.

It's not a merger, They have conquered TU and spoiling TU products and core teams who build these systems for so many years. There models failed from past 3 years and poor in managing their own Neustar systems. Inefficient to understand TU systems and how important these are for consumers. They are finally making sure all these systems sinks before they leave.

Leadership is saving Neustar team and kicking out TU core teams just believing their bullish overhyped products which are worthless when they try to implement it in past 3 years.

When are the leadership going to realize they are just a part of the overall machine…if they don’t take the employees with them this whole thing is going to fail…badly

I joined a couple of years ago from a tech product company to a more senior position here. Crazy to see how much gossip and open chitchat goes on here, especially in global, about individuals. Don’t people have work to do? Where are the professionals? Management encourages it even.

A simple google search would tell any prospective employee to stay away… not to mention threads were people are trying to piece together what’s going on because leadership is being super shady. It screams toxic in the worst possible way.

Because it wasn’t always like that, I can attest to it. But when did things shift?

Joke that Cisco will excel based on current quarter. The bubble will come down in no time

Anyone else see the #Do Better Chevron post it notes on the broken glass in the Houston Sky Ring? Classic.

We have a culture of fear now at WF that has destroyed innovation with all of us walking on eggshells

Verizon is in this situation because of poor leadership, which was replaced with poor leadership, which is now being replaced by more poor leadership.

Just once, has any of these feckless leaders held themselves responsible? I mean they blame the economy, they blame COVID, they blame the employees. But they never take responsibility.

Isn't that literally in the credo?

But, it is the employees who will suffer. Hans will never have to worry about buying groceries, or losing thier home or paying medical expenses. Neither will Dan. They care about nothing and no one else.

The are typically sociopaths (and yes, there are peers reviewed scientific studies that show this).

Just once...

She called me excitedly to share the news. I really didn’t have the heart to tell her how bad of an idea I thought it was, or how I don’t think he’ll last more than a few months in this toxic atmosphere. He’s too nice of a guy, and you need to have a much thicker skin and fewer scruples to survive here. I almost feel like an a--hole for not warning her, but what good would it do?

Job Architecture is an absolute joke. Thought you should know since it's probably not filtering up from AC or the rest of the ELT.

With all due respect, touch grass.

What a waste already. Still no concrete details because they are still trying to figure it all out.

Love that he kept the meeting and is actually addressing the issues (well, sort of). Still, much better than all the "leaders" who are simply hiding and too chicken to talk to their employees (like Kyle or Shankar)

Management is trying to make the vast majority of their workforce obsolete, because they realize that those workers are coming to grips with how obsolete, and malicious, these "leaders" are.

It's a showdown on a massive social scale as haves and have nots push each other to the point of watching the resourcefulness and the competence of the individual to rise above both ownership and technology, in order to focus on one single thing - GETTING SH*T DONE.

PS. I want my Fu**ing bank back. I am not your slave. I am not your knight. I will not fight for those who seek to destroy me, or defend those who blindly comply.

Appalled by KE outbursts on hybrid work

Synopsis: “Mark, how can I drink water like you do on CNBC?”

Can you imagine any other workplace where an exec indulges in verbal thuggery?
Here the CTO uses abusive language at the drop of the hat.

What does the HR do?
Pretend like nothing ever happened.

Do we really need such utterly spineless HR guys?

P.S: I hope the HR folks get to read this.

Did anyone catch a Freudian slip yesterday? I feel like there was a lot of stammering because of nerves to deliver bad news. But did anyone catch this?

This isn’t verbatim, but something was said along the lines of - we have to make tough calls.. why? For the greater good of the KING — and then instantly corrected to TEAM.

Interesting how they skipped a mass Pulse announcement and just slipped it into the morning communication. Where is the video? We want to know you heard us!

Both of them are hated by people within their own org and people outside of their org.: Somehow these two continue to survive.. what’s their secret?

When is CSO going to 5 days a week? CSO is Atl still on 3 days a week.

When did Ford move to the People Leader / Individual contributor model? And how did they categorize existing employees at the time? Did anyone get a say in their label?

I've been gone from Nielsen and the industry quite a few years but I still keep tabs. This is a pretty big (expensive) hire by Nielsen. Peter's job will be to take any heat from the industry that comes Karthik's way. Looks like they hired him to basically be a glorified PR guy with the client base. He has a long history and successful track record in ad sales. Whenever Nielsen has hired these big industry g-ns in the past, they fizzle out really quick and take off into the sunset with a big bag of money.

I think that’s a simple litmus test for deciding who is expendable. If you don’t know how to start a simple chat how are you going to engineer cutting edge technology?

Kinda tired of these LinkedIn posts bragging about ‘X years with the brand.’ Just be honest - you did solid but pretty average work most of the time, they gave you a generous severance package, which will never be repeated - and you took the deal. No need to turn it into a hero story.

.....oh that's right, those are no more! Money otherwise spent on consultants, C level events and overpaying "leaving" executives.

One small step they could do to try and start to rebuild any kind of culture here....but nope.

All of the anxious people posting lies here need to STOP

Pretty convenient that someone had a note card to trigger the prepared statement to have a Dad talk with the entire company. If you respond other than how we expect you to respond get ready to get in line! And tears!

WTF was that? Ridiculous

With the new Optum image on all Uhc emails and the active engagement of the Optum board, it’s clear that we’re aligning as one cohesive unit. It makes sense for us to follow the guidance of the Optum board moving forward? Just questions?

PM's need to be fired. They are absolutely worthless! They serve no purpose and cant even do basics of their jobs. All the while ignoring everything.
