Bonus

So i got offered another gig, how prudent would it be to give 2 weeks notice before the bonus gets paid out? So for example the new firm wants me to start asap but open to me starting in january or early feb.

Just worries these ppl wont pay me and make me quit same day i put in 2 weeks


Considering coming back

I was laid off about 2 years ago and got a job somewhere else. Im being offered a very high salary to come back.

This is probably the wrong forum to ask this but looking for opinions of other high level leaders (lets say band 5+) on whether this is a good move. Im happy where I am and have a defined path to a very high level position but its a very far commute and significantly less pay than Cigna is offering.


Post your job offers!

This company wastes everyone's time with its low ball offers. They act like people are willing to move half way across the world to a country with a totally different culture and then risk getting blown up by missiles for the same wages or lower than the job would pay back home. Even if I were unemployed, I would think twice before accepting this. Aramco keeps doing this delusional s#^t because management is completely out of touch and no one pushes back. At least posting these offers allows potential candidates to know what salary they are likely to get before they waste hours of their time applying and going through interviews. Many companies post salary ranges for a job to avoid this kind of problem, but I guess Aramco thinks it won't (can't) be held accountable.


I finally got a job after being laid off from T-Mobile last year!!!!

Last year my last day was October 13, 2025. I still don't understand why it happened.
It took me 380 days after that to land an offer and I start next week. This was the most stressful moment of my life and I have to thank God, my Wife, Mom, and Dad for keeping me propped up to keep moving forward.

I don't even know how many applications I've filled out since T-Mobile let me go. I started in August 2025 after the Jeff Simon cut during my garden leave. I even tried to interviewing in June to get back in and I got rejected since they wanted someone with billing experience under their belt. I had everything in the bag after a great interview and got rejected for something so small. Ridiculous!

I'm writing this to tell all of you that to NEVER give up. These corporations don't own your soul and they don't control everything like they think they do. I'm also writing to let you know that I can finally stop being a ghost on these threads after I deleted my Blind account since I couldn't post without having a job and it's a route I'm never going down again. It feels like a weight has been lifted off of me 😌.

Good Luck to you all and God bless! You will find your way!


Global Bank Slashes 5,000 Jobs Amid Ongoing Layoffs at Australian Banks

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.

Volvo Cars Announces Global Workforce Reduction

Volvo Cars is implementing significant job cuts, eliminating 2,500 positions worldwide to address mounting financial pressures. The automaker is also targeting substantial savings from indirect and variable costs by the end of 2027. These measures come as the company faces weaker demand, increased competition, and a substantial third-quarter loss. Revenue in China has also seen a sharp decline, contributing to the company's financial challenges. This follows a previous round of job reductions announced in 2025.

UHC to Humana?

Hi, I’m looking for honest perspectives. I work at UHC in their Medicaid business. It’s never been a great fit for me, but I’ve learned a lot. I’m interviewing for a manager role at Humana. Outside looking in, Humana appears more member-friendly than UHC. How’s the Medicaid business there?


Bus Drivers Demand Reinstatement After Job Cuts

Martin County bus drivers, recently laid off without prior notification, gathered to protest their dismissals. They voiced their demands for job restoration outside their former depot. Families of the affected drivers joined the demonstration. The group directed their message to county officials. They are seeking to reclaim their positions.

I found a better deal

I kept waiting for this place to recognize the work I was already doing, just to see two promotional opportunities pass me by. That was the push I needed to start applying elsewhere and after four (long) months I found a position that pays considerably more and gives me benefits I actually prefer. The many rejections over the past months were frustrating, but it paid off in the end and I'm glad I didn't take them as a reason to stop trying.


Stelco Begins Layoffs Amidst Economic Pressures

Stelco has commenced issuing layoff notices to its employees, with the first job cuts scheduled to take effect this Sunday. Approximately 90 workers are expected to receive notices this week, impacting around 330 individuals at the Hamilton plant. Additional reductions are anticipated at the Lake Erie Works in Nanticoke, affecting co-op and pickling operation staff. The company attributes these indefinite layoffs to trade crises, weak demand, and import competition. This action follows Stelco's announcement last week of plans to reduce up to 500 workers across its facilities.

Read the reviews before you sign

Anyone considering a job at Elevance should take some time to research what current and former employees have said. There are plenty of stories about the way people are treated, and I wish more candidates looked into that before accepting an offer. A job can look very different once you're actually inside the organization. Do your homework while you still have a choice.


AI Job Growth Outpaces Displacement

New research indicates that artificial intelligence and automation will lead to significant job market shifts. While an estimated 11 million American workers may need to change occupations in the coming decade, the economy is projected to gain nearly four times that number of new jobs. This suggests a net positive impact on employment due to technological advancements. The findings highlight the transformative power of AI on the labor landscape. Overall, the outlook for job creation appears strong despite the disruption.

Is IBM really that bad?

Hi everyone. I've been reading posts here recently because I have an offer from IBM and I'm trying to decide if I should accept it. (I don't feel comfortable giving any specifics.) There are a lot of negative posts here. Some are crude and I wonder if that's just for comic effect or a reflection of how things are at IBM. Is IBM really that bad? Thanks in advance for any thoughts.


McClatchy Lays Off Hundreds Amid AI Debate

McClatchy recently implemented significant layoffs, impacting over ninety unionized media workers across seventeen publications. These cuts occurred despite recent union contract gains that included provisions for artificial intelligence. The affected newsrooms experienced varying degrees of staff reduction, with some losing multiple reporters. The role of AI in future operations remains uncertain, though company investments suggest its continued integration. Journalists are closely monitoring for any AI-driven replacements for laid-off staff, which could violate union agreements.

when outsourcing agency tries to sell you your old Cigna Job

(the post keep disappearing, hopefully it works this time)

This might be entertaining to some.

A friend of mine was interviewing for a new role and got asked 3 specific questions: why he left his previous job at Cigna, and if he still had a good relationship with them. Then interviewer asked why he thinks Cigna laid off a lot of people and the friend told them about HIH and how most Cigna IT jobs moved to India.

The interviewer explained that they were building a US-based team specifically for a Cigna client account, and he would need to interact with them regularly.

The funny part is, my friend’s skillset is highly niche, and Cigna only has one specific team that uses this tool. When the interviewer started laying out the specific systems he'd be maintaining, my friend casually replied, "Yeah, I was one of those who built those."

The agency was unknowingly trying to hire him back into the exact same team he had just left.

Anyone with similar experience. Is Cigna finally realizing their mistakes?


Offices with Open Spaces

Are there really no spots in cities like Lone Tree, San Fran, etc.? I might accept an offer but they only listed Austin and Southlake as an option...what about Orlando or any other cities? I might not go through with it if TX is the only available option. Has anyone heard of any potential expansion in different cities for next year?


Redeployment Center

I got laid off almost two weeks ago. I received a personal and work email for a job offer. It’s Employee Installation Representative. It’s for 5 months. It would not mess with my severance. I would get paid what I was making. Has anyone else received an email Iike this or accepted this?


Refinery offer Design engineering concern

I’m coming from a different industry and recently received an offer from Chevron for a design engineering position. I’m hesitant to accept the offer, even though the compensation is slightly better than my current company.
My biggest concern is Chevron’s use of engineering outsourcing, particularly to India. I’m worried that, over time, my position could be outsourced or eliminated and the work could be transferred to India.Should I accept the offer despite this concern, or would it be better to reject it because of the potential long-term risk to job security? What factors should I consider when evaluating the stability and future prospects of this position?


Interview with a recruiter

I have an interview with a recruiter for an internal position I applied to. Any idea what they ask? I am guessing technical questions are reserved for an interview with the hiring manager. Also my application status still shows applications received despite recruiter sending me interview invite. Is this one of those fake positions?
