#feedback

What is the point in feedback sessions if it is always the same nonsense talking points then why take the time for a meeting.

What an absolute disgrace of a migration, whoever signed off on big bang approach should be sacked. I feel for the support team

What are our marketing teams even doing? Millions of dollars were spent on cramming celebrities into an Ad that made no sense meanwhile adidas’ Ad was everywhere. We couldn’t escape it this World Cup. Who is signing off on these Ads? The London billboard debacle as well was embarrassing. It seems marketing has lost a step. All that effort just for two adidas teams to reach the final is fitting for how Nike’s turnaround has been going

Joel didn't say anything meaniful, I had looked forward so much to that townhall like it was the Oscar's, it was just a waste if 1hr, couldn't answer any question straightforward or plainly

When will portfolio SEs be pooled resources and not be involved with initial discovery calls?

Just goes to show you how Cisco values SEs.

How much do you agree with this statement: “My feedback directly contributes to leadership bonuses, even if it contributes to nothing else.”

I see exhaustive number of complaints however I do not see anything factual where somebody was truly laid off as a result of RTO or anything else because it’s all vague and not specific. I think the intent of the site has lost its path. Instead of making a comment as my teammate was laid off maybe because they weren’t performing but be more specific as I have yet to see somebody be laid off in two years

0/10 would not recommend!!!! I wrote they are exploitive and my thoughts on making us all wait for this VSP. Mission Simplify is a fu--ing joke

I was listening to a podcast and the discussion was with a management consultant. I think they summed up the issue with Phillips 66 and this management team:

“…the macro implications of a society that is maximizing profit is that it's going to be minimizing other goods that aren't easy to quantify.”

Under Greg, there was a balance to things—a purpose. He cared about people and the legacy of the company. Yes, he was not perfect, but you knew he cared about the company, the industry, and the people.

I believe that is gone. We are just focused singularly on making more money, trying to beat the competition, and just catering g to shareholder interests. It is interesting that, despite that focus, we are falling further behind, while also giving up the soul of the company and are experiencing an erosion of culture.

In our search for profit, Phillips has abandoned its commitment to people, developing people and taking chances on people with promise. Instead, we give people a job description and tell them it is on them to prove they have the skills for the next role. We talk only in terms of shareholder interests, returns on equity/investment, and tell people we must always be focused on beating MPC, VLO and a group of companies that the management team and board are focused on.

Am I wrong? Would like other perspectives. Is Phillips still committed to people and the interests of the communities and customers we serve?

Come to think of it, I have been with the company for 10 years and almost never hear about customers. Why is that?

If you had to describe Citi in just a couple of words, what would they be? I've got a feeling I know what the majority will be.

At what point do we get to give real feedback on Teams and M365? I’m ready to let them know IT SU-KS! I’ve never felt so chaotic, unorganized, constantly interrupted, and overlooking messages (I’ve never done that!).

I don’t even open the silly group pings at this point (whatever they’re called).. our team has created 5,428 different group chats with similar acronyms- how the heck can we keep this straight!?! And the 500 training decks that they share are useless if you don’t have time to spend days reading and learning this insanely chaotic platform (please STOP sharing “helpful decks”.. it’s not helpful!).

And don’t get me started on the fact that we’re encouraged (forced) to put everything in a “group chat”.. so now nobody can find the documents and they keep messaging asking you to forward it to them again. What’s the point!? Just send it in an email!!

This is ridiculous and we need to let them know it’s not working!

The Verizon Home app needs a full redesign rather than incremental fixes — it isn’t performing well as-is. Features like parental controls are overly complex; simplifying these and prioritizing customer-friendly usability should be a core focus of the rebuild.

Dear EMHC Team,

After several site visits, I have identified a recurring operational concern: an alarming level of cranial uniformity among the male population.

At this point, I am no longer confident that there are multiple individuals involved. It is entirely possible that EMHC employs one bald gentleman who simply changes safety glasses and shirts throughout the day.

For safety and identification purposes, I propose the following corrective actions:

1. Mandatory name tags with large font.
2. Optional mustache differentiation program.
3. Assignment of unique call signs (e.g., Bald Eagle, Bald Eagle II, The Chrome Dome, Captain Reflective Surface).
4. Investigation into whether baldness is an unofficial leadership competency at EMHC.

Please advise whether this phenomenon is due to genetics, stress, or prolonged exposure to refinery air.

Respectfully,

A Concerned Observer

So they are just assuming everyone will take the job at the indirects ? Regardless if anyone does Verizon still needs to own up to the thousands not 500. BTW how many fraud transactions are going to get pushed through if the rep is leaving ? I can’t believe how Verizon handles layoffs when so many will be there for another month. What a shrinkage nightmare !

When’s the last time you heard anyone talk about “touch, trust, technology?” LOL. This morning we got 4 separate emails detailing various ways our technology is failing our clients. Really inspiring.

Why is no one talking about the Moana live action movie? We are getting savaged by reviews. And it's true. That movie is so sad compared to the animation. The colors so drab. The rock? Cringe. This place reeks of pure self awareness. While outside of these castle walls everyone else says Disney is formulaic and dated and has lost its creativity. Reduced to sequels and live action remakes. And we sell our dusty old properties to a modern world trying to convince people that it still means something. And when we try to make stories we're trying to please everyone that we please no one and we forget the most important things: story and character development. Case in point: Wish. What. A. Disaster. For a 100 year anniversary film we sure flubbed that one. Why was no one fired for that? Why are they still allowed to make more cr-p? When is someone here actually going to kick all the rerunners out and bring in someone with newer ideas? So we don't do another Toy Story 7. Or Moana 5. Sweet baby Jesus the way people talk around here is like the damn crew of the titanic I swear.

Upcoming role changes and AI agents (which seem promising so far), including mandatory check-ins, are all on the horizon. What's everyone's consensus on this? 🤔

The comments are very pukey too.

"TIME's America's best companies list which recognizes organizations that stand out for employee satisfaction, financial performance, and sustainability transparency."

What a joke. Employees are not satisfied. Financial performance is terrible. Must be a pretty low bar to make the list.

Interested in hearing if your performance eval rating/manager comments were as expected or a surprise?
For the first time in over 18 years, I received a “less than expected” rating even though I achieved my stated goals, met deadlines.

Call is going on now. Add your impressions of the call. 🍿

This chick has this pre-recorded call at 8am with an email to get on this call at 745. Pre-recorded and just sounding so heartless and then click, call over in 5 minutes. 2 decades I've given to this company and it's all gone. No, thank you for everything you've done over the years, personalized by anyone. Just a default message like it's a voicemail. This fu--ing company has become so heartless.

LinkedIn posting liking commenting and dressing like they are on a runway at NSM. No wonder nothing of substance ever happens at this company. Lfg Deadtronic

Why is the Women Lead session being lead by a Man? He rewords what she says and does most of the talking. Can someone tell him to he is not a woman? Another example of Optum not getting it right. I just want him to shut up.

Next year don't do the Tell Dell. Participation is the only metric they can't cook.
This year seems to be hoovering around 80%.

Makes me want to vomit. Better not be fully transparent when a good percentage of employees are listening on the call.

We know how you love the so called anonymous survey. I'm sure KT in HR would support a survey, but MH knows that it will make him look bad, so No surveys anytime soon. KT keep up the pressure maybe he will resign, so you don't have to continue babysitting him for Apollo.

I could not watch. Could someone make a favor and do tldr

In past layoffs, does anyone come to you with a list of names and you give your feedback on who you can let go? Do they look to performance reviews? Something I was informed of led me to believe that feed back from PL will be applied in this layoff.

Why is it that every time there are layoffs, they always target the people who actually do the work instead of the ones who don't contribute anything? It's no surprise the company is in worse shape every year.

It's pretty obvious that Ramon and his team have no clue what they are doing. It's only a matter of time before the company is broken up. Frito can probably be sold off to either Dow Chemical or DuPont since they are all Chemical companies.

When do they run the workplace excellence reports? I thought it was supposed to be the first Sunday of every month (ex: June 7, July 5, August 2, September 6), but I noticed they ran it in June on June 3rd instead of June 7.

I remember when Dell actually pushed us to learn and grow. That seems like ancient history now.

Did anyone else notice this when filling out the culture survey they sent out - clicking on any answers on any questions acted normally UNTIL you got to the question of "do you plan to quit in the next six months" - every time you picked an answer or changed your answer a buffer icon would load something and then disappear. The whole team was doing the survey and reproduced it, including our manager (so four of us) Also obviously the survey link is personalised. I think theyre essentially looking at who's sure to leave anyway to make sure they don't lay them off as it'd be a waste of money if theyre quitting themselves anyway and instead layoff people who are still willing to stay and there isnt another easier way to get rid of them.

PPDM was the biggest steaming pile of horse shiiiiit from day #1. Everyone who worked on it should be fired on the spot!

My customers are ripping it out of their test environments, which they could never get to fully work, in droves. What a complete joke of an Enterprise software product. Pathetic.

Why are managers asking for feedback when they don't want to hear it? I share my thoughts, I make suggestions, and nothing happens. Problems remain problems and nothing ever changes. It's now a pattern where they ask, I answer, and they ignore it. Then why even ask????

How bad can it get?

What's up with all the downvoting suddenly? It's likely Centene the company themselves doing it or company boot lickers (get a life). To employees: never complete those manipulating and invalidating voice surveys but speak your voice here safely and don't be discouraged. Ignore downvoting and negative scores. Fk em. It's not that serious to be downvoting.

HR was actually too nervous to post the numbers for those regions. Honestly, I don't want to waste my time on it. Plus, if I did take it, my responses would just look like an outlier anyway.

Before I quit two years ago, I remember it taking 15 minutes just to log in every morning. To say the place was a mess would be an understatement. Not to mention, the whole Genpact deal destroyed already low morale. I was so happy to leave it all behind. Have things improved at all since then?
