Will Dan lay off the entire Indian workforce, despite its established presence in India since 2000? Many employees appear to have been quietly removed by senior directors and HR. This raises serious concerns about the future of the Indian workforce and the organization’s long-standing presence in the country.

The execs would love to run this place with zero employees, they just can't yet. But that's their goal. Not even India is safe from this. I can't wait for the AI bubble to burst and with it their dreams of bringing the actual workforce to a bare minimum. And it's only a matter of time before it happens.

Does anyone has any idea or any news regarding next round of WFR. When it will be and on which basis it will happen? Also, what is the future of ISG and it's product portfolio as based on current wave it doesn't seem there is any vision or strategy for product to release in next quarter.

Is there future in Canadian Heavy Oil and Imperial?

Is Venezuela more appealing?

What does the future of the FP&A org look like at VZ? Any rumors?

We are a month and a half into 3Q, IBMers how do you see the third quarter unfolding? Good or bad?

This should tell you everything you need to know about how much confidence he has in the company's future once the merger is completed. I'm still holding out hope that it might get blocked, but I know that's almost impossible. I don't want to be a Debbie Downer, but I just don't see a way for this to turn out well, especially for employees.

Does anyone know when the news of Evicore selling out would be public? There are a lot of rumors around. And leadership is useless: no clarity, no announcement.

Where do you see RTP 2 years from now?

Thoughts...

I am considering a job opportunity at L3harris Amityville, NY. Does anyone know the future outlook of this site and how the work culture over there is? I am seeing there was a building that closed down there this year but what about rest of the buildings? Any insight would be highly appreciated. Thanks

A Canadian pipe manufacturer is ceasing operations in Albuquerque. This decision will result in the layoff of 51 employees. The company cited a significant increase in the cost of a crucial raw material. This cost surge has rendered the New Mexico facility unprofitable. The company has indicated a potential future reopening of the site.

We've all seen admin locations that have a good number of customer service employees shut down in recent years. Sacramento, Jacksonville, Salem, the Barn, Billings, and probably a bunch of others I can't think of right now. Birmingham and SLC probably aren't going to last much longer either. A lot of these roles will be taken over by chatbots or outsource, but which domestic customer service hubs will still exist 5 years from now? Who has the insider info?

You hear it first here

Hold up your pants or buy new pair of underwear to new jobs

Too big to fail is a comforting lie. The bigger they are, the harder they fall.

Okay, because there is really no such thing as a crystal ball that can tell you your future with Humana, I suggest you go over to the Centene Layoff site and read the many posts of from many frantic employees. This probably will be Humana in the next 6 months.

Dell will be worth exactly 3 percent of today’s market value and 82 percent of its employees will be gone. Rough rough rough times ahead for Dell. Get your popcorn

yes some people are being moved to the okc tower, but where will Devon be in 5 years? Constant re-orgs and layoffs have left Oklahoma hollowed out as a destination for oil and gas workers

I met with a high level and well connected employee recently to try get some answers about my ultimate potential. This person works with D&S for my job family in succession planning. I was very honest about how I don’t see a future with ExxonMobil. The person tried hard to basically convince me that the pension is worth sticking it out for since I have put in two decades with the company already and am in my forties. The person then went on to describe how in the not too distant future there won’t be any employees at EMHC left other than those who are still needed to mentor the BTC. The person made statements like you are old enough and close enough to retirement that you can make it. My takeaway was the future for old people is to train India to take all the jobs. The future for young people is to be fired. I suggest young people wise up and leave before you are fired and that old people decide if this is the future you want to be a part of. I do not.

The majority of our jobs won't exist anymore in just a few years.

Be honest. Do you believe we're capable of returning to our former glory, or are we well past that point by now?

Now we know what is in the future for North America's workers.

What we should expect regarding AI? Any insights?

I don't have the same level of hatred for this place that a lot of people do, but I'm also not blind. The constant layoffs aren't a solution, they're just a way to delay the inevitable. You can only cut so many people before there's nobody left. I don't see how this ends well.

I've been thinking about whether staying here long-term is even realistic anymore. Everywhere I look, people are just going through the motions until they find a way out. New people, old people, it doesn't really matter. The consensus seems to be that Schwab is in decline and nobody should be pinning their future on it. Maybe that's for the best.

The street loves the “mass layoffs, benefit cuts, zero merit increases, have AI do everything” story. I wonder what the reaction will be a year or two from now?

How would you compare us to the rest of competition?

I am interested in opinions of folks that worked for other companies.

Also, I'd love to see what people think about our position a few years from now

Is this a bad dream? Verizon seems to be stuck in an awful doom loop of layoffs with absolutely no off ramp to a better future. I never thought morale could keep sinking but here we go again

Do you see a future of company? Would we still exist in 5 years?

It just appears more and more concerning to me... Many great talents but the management team is really running it to the ground.

I’ve got a feeling that as AI invoked layoffs pick up, we will see a rise in white collar unions. Anyone here open to starting a trend here?

ExxonMobil is aggressively expanding BTC by leasing more office space for technology, engineering, digital, and strategic business functions. Everything is slowly moving to India.

You hear me
This may look vague right now, but if we don’t act, the company could fully shift major operations there and even redomicile in India within the next 25 years.
This is what the organization is doing to us. This is our future!!!!

Any info. out there on TIS modernization projects? Some are under review or shortly going on hold, what does that mean for the future direction of TIS?

Does anyone have any idea what will happen to our GSC PH colleagues over the next few months?

Media content on the networks is the future and there are significant synergies to be gained. See you on the commute!

What’s your final answer? Are you staying opted in? Why or why not? Hmmmmm? There is just soooo much to look forward to! It’s gonna be Hhhuuuuuuggggeeeeee!! Centene is gonna be the biggest and bestest health plan EVER! No one has ever seen anything like it!

With Tom Kirkland gone and no immediate replacement what are peoples thoughts on Wescam, aeromet, and forcex being pieced out into other sectors and TSS being dissolved?

You are being let go so that they can loop back around with the same job openings at much much lower pay with the reasoning that AI does the bulk of the decision making.
The 6 figure tech job will very soon be a thing of the past. This plan is unfolding right before your eyes now. Don’t let the lie you tell yourself of “maybe not me” manifest into a false sense of security. Your days a literally numbered on the calendar. Good luck everyone.

AI is fundamentally changing how work gets done, according to HR leaders. HiBob CEO Ronni Zehavi states AI allows companies to scale output without proportional hiring. He emphasizes that successful organizations will prioritize workforce design and agility over headcount. This involves organizing around skills and capabilities, pushing decision-making closer to the work. The future workforce will be dynamic, focusing on human-machine partnership and developing human potential.

SAS is having an event for retirees, weeks after the company-wide celebration, to which we were not invited. Much of the success of SAS is due to the great work of retirees. If we come to said event, we have to pay for our own lunch! Seriously!?! We get to listen to stuff about the latest stuff that ki-led the goose that laid the golden egg, and after all we did, they won't even spring for lunch for us?!? In contrast, there is a mid-October event, independent of SAS, for retirees. https://www.facebook.com/groups/2885607674835420/posts/27527959706840208 I think I will attend the latter. Hope to see you there. I'm sure SAS only cares about the present and the unfortunately bleak future, but shouldn't they have some respect for those that contributed to their early success?

From CNBC.com:
Similarly, IBM replaced its HR functions with AI that handled around 94% of routine requests but was unable to meet the other 6%, which included ethical dilemmas. IBM then announced plans to triple its U.S. entry-level hiring across all business units in 2026.
