If this town hall is representative of how the Mass Markets organization is run, it’s a real $hit $how over there.

Who is the first person?

Meeting invite today - just me and my boss with title "Org Update"

7.8 million people out of work.

Per CNN article.

Let that sink in.

Curious as most of the DEI related pages on Viva Engage were purged.

Is it true?

This is what I've heard

I have not seen a single picture of our new CEO wearing anything with a Verizon logo. Have you?

Why all the silence on here lately?! There is stuff happening under the MHI umbrella. Share it. Speak up. We Need to stay informed.

This will be the topic today.

Merry Christmas!

Just watched Cory Doctorow with Jon Stewart on the ensh**ification of tech and it reminded me so much of 2U and its "pivots" over the years. Doctorow explained that pivot is actually doublespeak for panic. Now how do we pivot?

Have the most recent employee survey results been released? No one seems to know in my area. And if they have - are results the same, higher or lower than the previous survey?

Yall get your offers from mastec yet? Sorry the rest of us are nosey.

When can we actually have our performance reviews?

How does employee satisfaction compare at these three companies. I managed to take a peak at the GM thread, and there aren't many posts compared to Ford's. Could it be there's less to complain about? I always thought it was worse there.

is our new ceo any better than our last one

No posts for 2 months.......

  What exactly do you think you're doing with my money, start talking.

I am officially designated as a hybrid employee in MN.
My manager and entire team are fully remote.
I have not been going to the office since the RTO policy took effect.
Are there others in a similar situation, and if so, how has this been addressed under the current RTO policy?

Well, 2025 is almost over. It's time to revisit the 2025 predictions and make new ones for 2026.

I don't really know which rule the predictions thread violated, but the original 2025 Predictions thread disappeared after being up for a really long time. Not sure what happened there. Someone partially resurrected it here: https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1k38aeyac

So, weigh in on which predictions were right, and make some new predictions for 2026.

Anyone know what we’re doing with them? resale?

Just curious. Hears we are moving to new Region

Watch the link below titled "Why Companies Are LYING About Mass Layoffs":

Yes

Who’s bringing the popcorn?! Any thoughts on what will be announced / shared?

How many people got let go yesterday

With all these leadership announcements, do we think these senior leaders (Manmohan Mahajan (Finance), Lanesha Minnix (legal), Beth Leonard (Corporate Affairs), Erick Rudiak (CISO), etc., to name a few of the most recent ones) all "decided to leave Walgreens" on their own or, do you think Sycamore laid them off?

That's great. Great.

That is all Stankey is doing

I could not listen to the call with MA yesterday. Did he talk about layoffs in his board area?

Surprised nobody has said anything yet

but glad we learned about the CFO's deadbeat brother I guess?

Use this post to discuss today’s town hall

They must still be secretly working on stuff behind the curtain

How was your experience been?

I had 5 RSUs scheduled to vest today. When I checked my account there are no pending transactions and now the next transaction is scheduled for March of next year. Is this happening for anyone else?

After thinking long on how I might convince any readers that this post is legit and that I wasn’t representing HR I concluded that I can’t - so I’ll just ask.

If you are a technician at F8, are you interested in joining a union (CWA to be specific)?

There are pros and cons that you should absolutely be aware of but the topic has come up several times at GF and its happening in some other key 24/7 firms in the state.

I don’t intend for this thread to become a running list of the cons presented by people who have no dog in the fight (non-technician employees) just seeking input from technicians that would be for or against this. Please do a little research prior to engaging, ensure you understand the whole union picture. Thanks!

Stankey mentioned in his presentation that we had successfully completed our first one. Any news on which one? I would think it was a smaller one but anyone with knowledge of how it went, takeaways, etc?
