Are you guys ready for layoffs and more work?

I try not to work on holidays when I can avoid it.

Unfortunately, I need to be prepared for the next LR.

You might ask, “Couldn’t you prepare for the next LR during normal business hours, on actual working days?”

Yes. I do that too.

In fact, that is most of what I do.

Every now and then, some pesky customer calls and interrupts my LR preparation, but I try not to let that derail the mission.

This is the day. Keep in your pocket.

It’s only 1 month away

There's no need for a layoff when they are firing everyone everyday! Less than 200 North American frontline customer service agents and less than 100 MCO agents, once a upon a time there were thousands of agents and now everyone is being let go everyday due to a plan make it make sense! These are tenured agents 8 years etc of service and all of a sudden they cannot maintain metrics and that's not fishy? I would look into filing a formal complaint if you feel you have been discriminated against and let go. Sad times at Wayfair.

TBH these should have been the first people let go

Ex Hess now Chevron employees please share with Oxy employees what to expect once CVX purchases Oxy. Any insight on who to outlast and survive?

So if one applies for VSP and gets declined. Supposedly they can still lay off that same employee later but now without the additional bonus weeks offered in VSP. Isn't that questionable? A possible law suit? I mean if they deny a significant amount of applicants and then lay them off in August, that would be decent savings for them... somehow this entire situation makes me think of " Attica! Attica!" shouted by Al Pacino in the 1975 film Dog Day Afternoon.....Pacino, playing a desperate bank robber cornered by police, uses the chant to reference the 1971 Attica prison riot. He does this to rally the crowd and turn public sympathy against aggressive police tactics. Can't remember how it worked out for Al. ..

Denied promotion once again.
Expectations of me growing higher and higher.
Doing great work and being praised for it, but because im not su-king off higher grades about sh-t I dont give a flying fu-k about, and not inserting myself in meetings unnecessarily, DENIED.

How does one start finding a job elsewhere ? I have 5 years of experience.
My interview skills have 10 layers of cobwebs and dust.

I don’t think their plan backfired at all. I think it is going exactly the way they intended for it to go. Without having to issue a single WARN notice and look “bad” to investors, they manipulated a huge chunk of their workforce to “quit” their jobs and they now have the power to say who goes and when you go. Money is power and this challenging economy was perfect timing for them to exercise control.

When and which teams would be impacted

Half my team's gone. Who's expected to do their work? I'm gonna take a wild guess and say those of us left.

Is it possible to show zz. before the next layoff?

Signs are surfacing internally about potential layoffs and downsizing.

So disgusting the email from Don Duet while Riffing people that should be here who are talented. More people confirmed let go today. Jason Baklavas chosen to deliver AI when he hasn't delivered anything for Digital in over 2 years and is one of the worst executives to exist in this company. Clueless management, clueless company. The nature of these layoffs is just reckless. Riffing going on today, good luck all.

I have a necessary surgery that needs me to be on 6 to 8 weeks short term disability leave. Would that put me at risk for layoff after I return from medical leave?

To my Cengage colleagues stilled mired in the muck of this soulless entity, I just got a new gig and gonna take a little PTO before quitting.

Happy Independence Day!!!!
