Copilot is absolutely learning everything you do. Your patterns. Your behaviors etc… It will associate topics to emails even if you don’t mention it in copilot because it scans your emails and your teams chat. It will listen to your calls and add that info to the ai learning models. It’s inevitable…. Ai is wiping us out. Evanko is a snake. Ai will cost you your job.

Is there a policy that prevents employees from drinking on the job? I’m not talking about the Koolaid.

North Carolina's economic development agency has secured incentive deals promising nearly 120,000 jobs over a decade. However, a significant number of these promised jobs have not materialized. The state's top recruiter faces scrutiny over the effectiveness of these deals. It often takes years for jobs to appear, and some never do. This raises questions about the success metrics for economic development initiatives.

I didn't realize how much the environment was actually affecting my mental health until I finally stepped away.
Sometimes you become so accustomed to the stress, office politics, lack of recognition, being beaten down and used for what the company needs from you, and the constant uncertainty that you forget what a healthy work environment should actually feel like.
I've moved on to a new opportunity, fully remote, and honestly, life feels so much better. I took a pay cut, but when you factor everything in, I feel like I really 1000% came out ahead. I feel more positive, appreciated, and excited about my work again. And of course, getting to this point required investing in myself and putting myself through some challenging schooling.
It's amazing what happens when you remove yourself from an environment that no longer serves you, especially one that has become accustomed to taking you for granted and offering so little in return in terms of employee appreciation.
Sometimes leaving isn't losing. It's moving forward.
To anyone considering making a change: don't be afraid to take that leap of faith. A whole world of opportunities exists outside Nike, and you might be surprised by how much happier you can be on the other side.
There are many jobs out there. You need to get in the right mindset, polish your resume, sharpen your interviewing skills, and believe in your value.
One thing worth remembering: getting a job nowadays takes considerably more effort than it did a few years ago. Competition is tougher, interview processes are longer, and it can take persistence. But people are still landing great jobs. It takes preparation, patience, and considerably more effort than before.
Don't underestimate yourself, and don't let one company make you forget what you bring to the table.
I honestly feel bad for the people still at Nike, especially those in IT. I don't think I'm alone in wondering what is happening to the technology industry. It increasingly feels like the people making decisions have lost sight of the fact that employees are human beings, not resources to be endlessly squeezed for more productivity or discarded like old shoes.
Nike generates tens of billions of dollars in revenue. This isn't a company struggling to survive. This is a winning company. And yet, the pressure, restructuring, uncertainty, and apparent lack of appreciation seem never-ending, and I don't know why, when they make at least 40 billion a year. They just lost sight of how to treat employees like human beings.
At some point, you have to ask yourself: how much more do you expect people to give?
It's almost like being in a toxic relationship. No matter how much you give, it's never enough. The expectations keep growing, more is demanded of you, and eventually the environment just su-ks the life out of you.
That's what I feel has happened to so many people at Nike.
I hope those still there remember they have choices. Your skills, experience, and worth are not defined by one company.

Your career is bigger than Nike. Your well-being is worth more than any paycheck or job title.

Good bye and thanks for all the fish!

UK betting companies are expressing strong concern over a recent increase in the Machine Games Duty tax. This tax hike, from 20% to 25%, is expected to have severe consequences for the industry. Operators warn of significant job losses and the closure of many brick-and-mortar establishments. Industry leaders believe this decision will push customers towards the illegal betting market. The Betting and Gaming Council estimates nearly 9,000 jobs could be lost and around 1,000 properties could close.

I recently applied internally to a position that was specific to Humana job sites but remote. Do we think this is a sign they’re planning to return to work?!

Intel is implementing another round of layoffs, eliminating 67 positions at its Folsom facility. These job reductions are scheduled to begin in early November and will affect various technical, engineering, management, and business-related roles. This announcement follows Intel's recent decision to retain ownership of its Folsom campus instead of selling it. The company has been undergoing significant restructuring and cost-cutting measures for several years. These latest cuts continue a trend of workforce reductions at the Folsom site.

Teva Pharmaceuticals will close its Fairfield, New Jersey manufacturing facility by February 1, 2027. This closure will result in the layoff of 61 employees. The company cited the plant's underutilization and high operating costs as reasons for the decision. Declining demand and price erosion also contributed to the plant's economic challenges. Teva plans to reallocate resources to higher-priority investment opportunities.

I'm curious which jobs at Humana people find the hardest to tolerate. If you've worked in different departments, which positions would you warn someone away from?

Toledo firefighters may face layoffs if a proposed safety levy does not pass in the upcoming election. Union president Joe Cira informed members of the potential job losses. The levy, Issue 16, aims to fund emergency services through a temporary income tax. If the levy fails, the Toledo Fire and Rescue Department could be forced to reduce its staff. This could impact response times and the department's ability to train new recruits.

A Humana spokesperson told WHAS11 News in a statement Tuesday they evaluate their staffing needs on an ongoing basis. They make adjustments when necessary in order to "meet the needs of our business and create greater value for our members and patients."

The beatings will continue until morale improves (aka Dan gets paid). Erin is repeatedly going to come up with excuses for why we should be thankful for our job while continently pocketing a fat bonus. Unless there’s a strike they won’t budge.

Now watch more and more jobs being shipped overseas. The more they hire there the more they change the DNA of the company. First they sent blue collar jobs overseas, now they are doing it with white collar jobs. We are losing technical competency and the country sees no benefit from this - the only one who benefit from this are shareholders and executives but that's only a small part of the country. Kroger will continue to send more jobs overseas. I am not even sure that we'll have any savings, as they can save 50% of a salary for each job sent there but then it takes 2 people over there to do the job, so it's a break even at best.

Electric vehicle maker Rivian has announced another round of significant job cuts, impacting approximately 600 employees. This marks the third such reduction for the company in 2026, following earlier layoffs in manufacturing and commercial teams. The CEO is personally taking over marketing duties as part of these structural adjustments. These cuts are occurring despite strong delivery numbers for the R2 model, indicating a focus on profitability and scaling. The company aims to streamline operations to achieve profitable growth.

What company initiative sounded good on paper but was actually useless or made the job worse?
Curious what people actually think.

I’m looking for a job in dynamic (read constantly shifting priorities and moving goalposts), fast paced environment (read where everyone is constantly running around like chickens with their heads cut off). Job security and honest, competent bosses are not a priority for me. Can you hook me up?

Hundreds of former Dal-tile employees are seeking new employment following the abrupt closure of their plant. The city of Florence, in collaboration with the Shoals Chamber of Commerce and Economic Development Authority, organized a job fair to assist these workers. Local businesses with open positions were present to connect with the affected individuals. The event provided a crucial opportunity for displaced workers to explore new career paths. This initiative aims to mitigate the impact of the sudden plant shutdown on the local workforce.

Global financial institution Barclays is eliminating 5,000 positions as it integrates artificial intelligence into its operations. This move represents approximately 5% of its total global workforce. Concurrently, Australian bank Westpac is also reducing its staff by around 250 roles this month. Westpac attributes these job losses to evolving investment priorities and changing customer needs, not AI implementation. These announcements follow similar large-scale layoffs at other major Australian banks like NAB.

In my daily New Jobs for You Alert there are around 20 Dir, Sr Dir, ED H roles listed. Any one know what that is about? Are those roles that impacted employees now need to battle for a position?
Just seemed odd....

If we paid 25% more, we would have people motived to work harder. Instead we hire 2 extra people and do a worse job at the original task.

Let’s be honest, they su-k. We say they keep salaries low because they’re great at their job, when in reality they’re just incompetent and lazy. Not sure how they wake up in the morning and look at themselves in the mirror

Mutual of America is getting gutted like Ed Gein gutted victims like a slung up deer

It will get worse. Check out the latest posts from TIAA’s The Layoff Website:

Managers in the USA have no control over what the resource managers in India are doing. Spend 6 months training a resource and then the resource is pulled by the resource manager.

turnover at Accenture is ridiculous. They have the luxury of throwing bodies in these sessions and just rotate in and out with no rhyme or reason. The cost and time to train, retrain, and retain is amazing. You thought turnover with American jobs is bad, India has 1B people & people come & go all the time. The cost savings are not worth all the hassle. What a stupid A-s move.

never seen a partnership deal)this bad. Whoever orchestrated this atrocity should be fired..both at TIAA Management side and accentuare discovery team. Terrible, all the good TIAA employees and contractors left or did not consent to join Accenture, Accenture got the bad leftovers. I also heard that they are cutting hourly rates for contractors, that means more good ones are going to jump ships, reducing SLAs, quality even further.

Several Texas companies have recently implemented layoffs, impacting hundreds of workers. Baker Hughes was particularly affected, with nearly 150 employees losing their jobs. Other firms like Showcase and Window and New Tech Global Recruiting also made workforce reductions. These cuts are attributed partly to redundancies following company mergers. Despite these layoffs, Houston's job market shows overall growth.

Hundreds of mortgage professionals have lost their jobs since August as companies adjust to persistent high interest rates. Several lenders are closing brands and exiting origination channels due to economic headwinds and acquisition activity. These recent reductions are the most substantial since the large-scale layoffs in 2022 and 2023. Companies are citing various reasons, including expense reduction and technological efficiencies for these workforce adjustments. The ongoing trend indicates a challenging period for the mortgage industry's employment landscape.

I’m in tech at Nike in a team that is supposedly safe, but I am terrified of the layoffs. I have been applying to other companies and received an offer to another large non-tech company but for a 30% pay cut and a lower position. I’m not sure which route to take since I don’t mind the work I’m doing at Nike (and the money), but I don’t want to get laid off and be stuck without a job. Any tips for me?

Am I reading this LinkedIn post correctly? Where did they find so many open offshore positions within 6 months, with so many layoffs here in the States?

Welp, good luck, ya'll.

I noticed there is a massive layoff for MiniMed employees. So many talented people dropped. At the same time - a bunch of their jobs have been advertised.

It doesn't make sense. Surely keeping them on is the smarter choice. You have to train new people on the MDI and pump system.

Every group is bloated, and it’s ridiculously easy to coast by working just 20 hours a week. Data engineering has to be the biggest cheat code of them all. You basically just work with existing tools while pulling in close to top-level pay.

If you stop and think about it and look at a storyboard and all the stories on the board, you'll notice a pattern if you work with AI.
Each story is nothing more than a prompt. It's an elaborate framing for a prompt. You put in expectations, the input, and you set the acceptance criteria as the output, and you're describing the work.
So we're training some AI model on how to do our work from epic to feature to story, beginning to end, and we're training this model every day that we go to work and do Agile and complete stories and tasks. We're training this AI system to replace us. Every job that we do everyday.
