#morale

Referring to claims but may be other departments too. I really didn’t think it could be worse than rock bottom but here comes big blue with the excavator. My manager used to be ok but he is becoming militant and aggressive, due to those above him. A low performer on the team got fired. Threats of performance management for missing a single metric. More and more being dumped on the plate. This job has always been a toxic cesspool, but somehow it’s getting worse

It’s a spending spree now that the company got more help! Teams traveling the globe and enjoying entertainment and fancy dinners.
Yet-we are in debt and are taking on more debt.
Not to mention the 6 figure work from the coach and pool side positions.

Hey bootlickers! Please stop monitoring where everyone sits. Someone reported me that I'm working from the cafeteria. Hey MF you obviously have ZERO work to do to care that much. Joke is in you, my manager don't even care where I sit. And yes I'm gonna sit by the snacks, the sun, away from you. WTF this place is he-l.

John should be realizing with all this cash, employees are looking around going what about us? He and the executives will be making cash for themselves but we don’t get anything extra at all for all these record breaking results.

Him and those over paid HR goofs better start thinking of ways to give employees a bit more or the motivation to keep preforming won’t be there.

The workload keeps growing, and the support keeps shrinking. I haven't seen a single meaningful change that would improve things in years. How are we supposed to keep working when we're all literally burning the candle at both ends?

I'm so tired of the "we're family" speech when they need me to work late or take on extra projects. The moment I ask for a fair raise, it's "business decisions" and "budget constraints." If we're family, treat us like it. If it's business, stop pretending otherwise.

Almost a year since I got cut and my life is better now. Is anyone actually enjoying it there still?

Dishwasher. Call center rep. Fast food cashier. Literally anything sounds better than another day here.

Things are completely fine at Teradata right now. No drama, no chaos, business as usual.

Honestly it’s kind of pointless sitting here commenting on this forum when nothing’s actually happening. People are just spinning themselves up for no reason.

I even have a friend who’s ex-Teradata and now at AWS who agrees with me he says it’s pointless to sit around anonymously whining online about stuff that isn’t even happening.

Meanwhile I’m over here enjoying a high-end meal at Javier’s in UTC. Steak was perfect, service was on point. Life is good.

Carry on.

If the last 6 weeks were rough and stressful, hold on to your hats people the next 4 to 16 months are going to be questionable!

Drive it into the ground, full stop until we hit rock bottom. Soon everyone is going to have to update their bios, taglines and all that jazz to Fortune 1000.

Someone better have some pixie dust handy and lots of pink slips to hand out to keep this ship afloat.

The wait for redundancies is ki-ling me. Can they just hurry. This is soul destroying.

Folks just look at how they have handled everything since June. The rhetoric they use, the moving of timelines, misleading information and that's not counting all the other shenanigans this company has pulled over last 3 to 5 yrs. They dont like us and it's obvious they wanted to see who was disgruntled here and to make themselves look better with investors. They have no intention of paying out all these VSP and understood that by doing this ppl would quit or be so mentally gone thst they start to struggle.

Since he wants to sc--w Americans out of jobs and keep laying off with false performance, stop helping set them up for success. Do not put your notes out there, do not share them, do not update procedures with all steps. Quit doing it! Let this pr--k and all the mini pricks below helping to ruin everyones lives, get what they deserve. A team full of id--ts who cannot fight their way out of an open paper bag

I’m part of the first group and my PL seemed very stressed out about that. said they wished I was staying longer.

my thing is I am done. my PL has piled on more work for me while allowing pi-s poor performance from others (and I have been doing their jobs for the last three years).

I have listened to my PL give every excuse under the sun as to why others can’t do better, including the fact that I can do the work faster and with high accuracy… so?

I know this is not a unique circumstance and high performers are usually given more work while others continue to coast. I’m beyond burnt out and exhausted.

I’m so anxious about them prolonging my departure instead of putting responsibilities where they belong, back to the people whose job it is. my actual responsibilities can easily be distributed, the work I do is not that complex.

the difference with my colleagues covering my work is I won’t be here. I covered theirs while they whined and complained about every. little. thing. they sat and got paid. I did it all. I’m done.

Just when I thought it would finally be over, they found a way to sc--w us over once again and prolong our suffering for over a year in some cases. We are run by a bunch of sadist.

That must be someone fckng joking, right?? Folks in these locations are reportedly super happy, aren't they: Canada, Costa Rica, Czechia, France, Germany, Hungary, India, Italy, Japan, Poland and the United States. That is so sick given the existing real experience, suppressed by fear in the surveys though.

That is all! Stuck here until Aug 2027 separation date

You have worked for this company who tries every day to squeeze the life blood out of you and you have been successful. Whether your end date is 45 days or 450 days, you can do this. Make it till the end and squeeze this company for every penny possible.

With some many people getting dates a year or more from now (way past the original September 2026 date) it seems pretty obvious they are hoping people just quit. This will save them money in the long run not having to pay out lump sums.

Such a slap in the face and a sh-tshow.

No surprise that reports are wrong, nothing new, this place has been dealing with that for years. Systems don't work, are not examined for the root cause of bad data and reports. More micromanagement but wait....now so many of us are on a correction action plan as a result and everyone is miserable.

This is what lack of leadership looks like, don't dig in and find out what is wrong and then communicate/educate. Instead just assume we are lazy id--ts and let the punishments begin. And they wonder why morale is in the trash.

Funny to see Imperial posting about supporting the Stampede while pulling so many jobs out of Calgary. Yeah, way to support the community. Not.

Just wanted to get a pulse on how folks are doing lately. Morale seems pretty mixed across teams.

With the direction the company’s been going and the culture shifts over the past couple years, how long do you realistically see yourselves staying at U.S. Bank? And for those who are actively thinking about an exit, what’s your criteria for a role that feels worth making the jump?

It feels like a lot of people are frustrated but also sticking around because finding something with comparable pay/benefits isn’t easy. Curious how others are navigating that balance and what your thought process looks like.

Just send the email dang it! This is mental torture.

Big Tech companies are increasingly considering voluntary buyouts as a more humane approach to workforce reductions. Google employees are advocating for these offers to be a standard first step before layoffs. Microsoft has already implemented a voluntary retirement program with significant uptake. While buyouts can be less damaging to morale, they offer less predictability than traditional layoffs. The shift reflects the growing maturity of tech companies and their aging workforces.

Nobody's safe. I've watched good people get cut, bad people stay, and the rules change every quarter. I've stopped believing in job security entirely.

I'm only here because my wife's job is local. Nobody actually wants to be at Ford.

Now we're nothing but a joke. It breaks my heart to see how we're being systematically destroyed and there's nothing we can do to stop it.

People work hard, stay loyal, and still get tossed aside when their skills aren't considered shiny enough. Exxon will take everything you've got and then put you on a manufactured PIP to get rid of you. Why would anyone stay at a place that treats its employees like disposable tools? I'm not waiting to be the next one.

I've watched this industry chew people up for 15 years. There's a better world out there.

I've never worked somewhere with worse working environment than L3H.

I had a customer screaming at me over something that wasn't my error. My supervisor heard the whole thing, knew the customer was wrong, and still threw me under the bus to save face. He apologized to the customer for my confusion, then he pulled me aside and told me to just let it go with a lecture about customer experience. I hate it here.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they pulled the rug from under us once again when we least expect it, considering how badly this whole thing has been handled so far.

When I was working from home during covid, I was amazed at how much work I got done. I was proud of how much I accomplished daily. It was a pleasure working every day. Now that I'm back in the office, the commute, the noise, distractions, bothered by boring id--ts has completely demotivated me. I only come in to do the minimum. They really miscalculated the whole opportunity.

In the last three months we have been paid late once & have had our pensions messed up. Colleagues are leaving on mass, nobody is being replaced, we are expected to do more work without any benefits or reward and some colleagues are overloaded with that much work I’m surprised they haven’t left already. The company is a disgrace from top to bottom & the wage I receive with the responsibilities I / we is nothing short of scandalous. If you do a good job you get penalised & can’t pursue other opportunities, I have the mind to stop all my extra clearances & do the bare minimum. I used to enjoy working for DXC but every week gets worse, it genuinely feels like he-l, and the day I leave this torrid company will be the best day of my working life by far. I know that the majority of my colleagues are seeking new jobs & hopefully a load of us leave at once leaving a massive mess & for the system to collapse. If you are thinking of working for DXC don’t plan to stay here for more than two or three years otherwise it will become utterly unbearable & you will hate every single day.

What job should I go for next? One in a supermarket or a bin man? I’ll get paid more either way, I’ll have less responsibilities & I won’t be at risking of going to prison if I mess up.

To keep our mental health intact, our team meetings have turned into stand-up comedy about how broken everything is. The only time people perk up is to trash leadership or joke about organizing. Morale is so low that laughing at the chaos is the only thing keeping us sane.

The managers wonder why morale is low, they wonder why people don't care anymore.
They don't take care of the people that shows up to work and when they do punish the ones that calls in all the time, some how it ends up being everyone included at the buffet.
Short handed, no communication, no help, and no rewards for hard work beside a paycheck.

What a joke.
