#internalturmoil

Came here just out of curiosity to see what is posted here vs on the HPI forum and you’ve got us beat hands down! Glad to see the passion in reporting the internal chaos! Having a hard time getting a new CEO since Enrique jaunted off to PayPal. Some good posts over there about Enrique for those interested.

We put you down for a reference in our CEO search, please put in a few good words for us.

Stay classy HPE!

She “accepted a new position outside the company” and her last day is tomorrow?

Someone read between the lines for me on this one, please.

Pitting HealthSpring against blue employees seems to be the new strategy. It may not have hit you yet but it’s coming.

Any possible impact on the existing contracts? Heard from a trusted internal source that WPP has been awarded the AOR. How true is that? Seems more job cuts are on the way

Oracle employees are not trained in Oracle cloud or other products they build.

Oracle has significant restrictions on employees using its own products internally. People often know only the specific area they work on, with limited opportunities to explore the broader product ecosystem hands-on.

Even provisioning an internal server for experimentation can be difficult. How many Oracle employees actually know OCI in depth ? how to create a VPC, configure load balancing, set up networking, and deploy services end-to-end?

You know what to do. Over and out.

Was BH's org impacted today? There seems to be a shift in that area under AW.

Executives publicly say Guyana is a once in a life opportunity and then beat up teams internally and compare everything against Guyana. It makes zero sense.

Written as if there were opportunities inside the bank.

Well Jack-Attack's lock up period for bringing in Accenture grifters is just about at event horizon... So which positions are on the chopping block to make room for the buddies about to come in and save the day? Well, just think about which leaders have suddenly disappeared (quite a few) and you might be able to connect the dots. Someone else will appear magically in their stead with a "different title" as to not warrant lawsuits when someone's role was "eliminated". (Thanks legal eagles you guys are so smart.. LOL). These roles will not be posted publicly as there is a "candidate" waiting in the wings that was already "interviewed".

Cisco has not fired a poaching shot against Buffy-Duffy which is a tale tell sign that they are not concerned about bringing in D- sellers. He's bringing in more Cisco dudes than Bob bringing in IBM dudes. Guess who's getting NA pole position? An Accenture dude! Of course, makes sense now does it not?

Anyone here this?

In December, CW was exited and the role was eliminated by Hill stating it was to remove layers.

Today, role is reinstated and offered to JE from Walmart and is now considered a vital role and critical to the strategy.

Optically speaking, this is horrible. Leadership never beating the allegations that they are just throwing sh-t at the wall and seeing what sticks.

EH proving he isn’t the guy and must now make moves to set up his backfill.

Many senior employees in chandler doing the badge and leave in Arizona with zero consequences. Intel can’t figure this sh-t out

Obviously internal group travel to these non-sales useless conferences still happening during layoff/travel freeze; saw these on linkedin today.

Does Mahoney or whoever the CFO is knows? Folks being gotten rid of should shoot them a message and copy paste the links

Why so many executives and team members from Network moved under Vivek?
What’s the end goal ? There is Network SVP reporting to Vivek. They used to be peers.

AMD is doing a string of acquisitions lately with the most recent one being Taalas. I've heard that things are already dicey internally@amd

But are layoffs actually on the horizon because of these acquisitions ? Any chatter?

Is it just me or is there an active campaign to push out all of the upstream employees?

Signs are surfacing internally about potential layoffs and downsizing.

They have just started to do major Layoffs nationwide!!!!!!!!!!!! They have not announced anything and are telling employees to keep it hush.
Positions are being dissolved, and are encouraging people to apply to other positions within the organization

Seeing multiple leads and SMEs leave with no back fills posted. 2 Directors in IT already leaving in the next week. Nothing posted so no competitive chance for a promotion for someone in their team. Implosion

Seems very very slowly, some of the useless ones are wising up and leaving. ED, AR, and now the CIO (wdf did she do anyway?). Could it be that BL's interests are being weaned out slowly by Meg.

What’s going on in finance? Upstream CFO quits then a lot of mid-career hipos quit. No word from management on what’s going on

We have had our system down since Friday. Nobody knows what they are doing to try and fix it. Customers are going to be so pi---d off when we have to stop shipping because we cant process anything. This sh-tshow is before all the layoffs as well. I have literally been sitting here doing absolutely nothing for 2 days while secretly chuckling inside because I feel like this is karma

BASF managers will decide who to lay off based on complex factors like personal disputes, retaliation, maintaining dominance and status, rivalries, and internal power struggles, often stemming from cycles of stupidity , lack of opportunity, trauma, and loyalty, with layoffs often escalating through social contagion and misidentification in social networks.

Is this end game for career connect or are their other changes pending? Seems like there's less information and features available than before the transformation. What was the point?

Some MD's have saved their bootlickers by moving them around to other people under Nawani but data team members n Markets and Banking and International has been hit. That's all I know.. Not sure who or how many or what titles

Attending meetings this week and the energy and expectations is awful, it’s clear there’s no vision and I’m already so burnt out. Does anyone know if it’s possible to opt into the layoff?

I was just wondering if anyone has heard whether Accredo will also be impacted by the current layoffs at Cigna, or if that area is expected to remain stable for now.

There seems to be a lot of uncertainty, so I thought I would ask in case anyone has heard any updates or information being shared internally.

I’ve seen quite a few people leaving from the UK offices across different departments — some went mid-May, others are due to ship out end of May. It was a mix of VBGs and the rest, probably around the 100 mark all in.
Heard the RIFs are pretty much done in the smaller spots like Spain. Italy got notified as well but they’ve got that 75 day consultation period to go through. Not sure what’s happening with France and Belgium, they’re pretty small outfits anyway.
Germany’s probably next in line for another 100 heads, seeing as they’ve got nearly 300 over there. There was some chat about selling off Professional Services and Security to a partner, but I’ve got no proper intel on that.
Anyone know any more?

Many of the holes are being now plugged with today’s org announcements. AD to the Chief of staff office. That pretty much confirms CH can stop dual hat and will be head of downstream.

Yet to be seen if Meg has the fortitude to send GB and WL packing. Or at the very least move GB over to some Tech center role where he can’t continue destroying value.

A group of friends having been cut from GBS all self selecting, and one guy told me yesterday he’s been put into a pool for CR in GIS.

Kevin Hart's media company, Hartbeat, faces significant internal challenges. A recent report details layoffs, lawsuits, and executive shakeups. The company, once valued at $650 million, has downsized. Kevin Hart finalized a deal with Authentic Brands Group this January. This agreement reportedly caused employee concerns regarding the company's future.

Lots of shuffling around of teams again and unfortunately losing some good people, then CTO is out on leave? What is going on?

Nothing gets done. Priorities change by the day. Projects launch and die overnight. Key people vanish without warning. Managers are overwhelmed. I've completely checked out. No more goal-oriented work, just treading water. And I'm pretty sure most people are doing the same.

And it'll be a miracle if anything is still functioning in the near future. Some teams have been almost completely destroyed by the recent moves. What's the actual end game here?
