Bartlesville Control Center

We need to be clear: controllers will not be relocating to Tulsa. This move would result in the loss of critical experience that safe pipeline operations legally depend on every day.

Seagull needs to fully understand this reality. Our position on relocation must be communicated clearly. We need to stop training backfills to move roles to Houston. If Seagull chooses to move, have her develop and implement the training.

Anyone seeing layoffs instead of transfers for FS and Pharmacy employees at closing stores?

At an Oregon CVS pharmacy where we were told we would have no issue keeping our jobs if the store closed. When it was announced, RxDL and FSDL both told respective staffs no one would lose their job. But due to market acquisition of Rite Aid stores, we have too many people (supposedly) and now we are being threatened with layoffs. Anyone seeing this in their area too?

The idea that layoffs target low performers is a myth

It's frustrating when people claim layoffs are about performance. My whole department, from the VP down, got cut in the last round. We had strong reviews and bonuses to show for it. Sometimes it's just pure cost cutting with zero regard for who actually does good work. Spreading that performance narrative just kicks people when they're already down.

Buckle up

Why do we never let people know who have left or has been laid off. Everything is one big secret. Maybe its different in other divisions but here in our schools division, communication is a joke. Then you expect us to believe that as managers you didnt have a say in or even knew who they were gonna let go. Well if my name is on the departure list, know I am going to tell everyone. I have asked for weeks and have been told the same line by each person I asked. Almost word for word. Like it was scripted. Buckle up, its gonna be a real intersting day. #Projectconverge

NCR Atleos laid off entire Marcomms org / Marketing

It's a ghost town on 19. They laid off the entire Marcomms team yesterday from the CMO, executive directors, social, literally everyone in GHQ and Serbia!!!
