#morale

I was w/AMN healthacare for 3 years as a certified remote video medical interpreter. I held consistent 5 star rating, so much so that every year my wages were raised, but today , about 200 of us received a bullsh-t internal email , an email that once read , dissapeared. I thought this was peculiar , but never thought it was a worse case scenario.The email was intenionally vague,it said that we were to place in "meeting " status ..I was working right till the time, then after finishing the call, i placed my self on " meeting" i waited along w others in the teams app, suddenly w/o warning , some collegues w sudden sadness starting writing they are letting all of us go...I couldnt believe it ! No , than you, nothing just a lame email afterwards, It was quite sad , we couldnt even say bye to our collegues.I will miss you guys ! AMN behaved like pu----s... I hope that company,

Anyone see the disclosures of the C suite pay? Some notes

1. GK got about $17MM. AC $19MM. Note GK’s pay went up 60%!!!
2. They were reimbursed about $150k for personal financial planning.
3. Gunjan was reimbursed $300k for her housing here, commuting back to her home state and personal use of private jet
4. AC still got $8k of personal home security paid for
5. Jodi got a THREE MILLION DOLLAR retention bonus

Meanwhile everyone else gets a 3% bump tops, 20% no raises and they actually wonder why trust in the MC is low? Kinda funny actually.

I'd be settled somewhere new by now, instead of sitting here praying my number doesn't get called. I don't even recognize this place anymore, and I know it's just going to get worse.

Funny, I accidentally clicked into a layoff thread from 2019 and started reading. Didn’t realize it was old. The post very similar and relatable to today. It’s been bad for a long time.

The stock is at a multi-year low today of $118.40. No leadership, poor morale due to no leadership and no competitive advantage. The best and the brightest are jumping ship to competitors or just outright leaving as they are making less money year over year. WTF are we doing? There is No Plan coming from the Executive Team. There is poor messaging coming from the Executive Team. The Executive Team has negotiated their own severance packages through 2029. The Executive Team needs to go now.

I'm fed up of management through fear. You can scare people into doing two or three jobs for the price of one for a while, but not forever. Eventually we just stop giving a damn and go back to doing just our original job. I 'm at the point where I don't give a damn if they fire me or not. I'm just done.

I've been working here for two years and still don't understand how they keep the lights on. The people running this place make decisions that hurt the business constantly. They ignore what customers want, run off good staff, and act surprised when sales drop. It's a miracle we're still around.

I've lost count of how many layoff rounds I've seen. They just keep coming. There's no finish line, no moment where they say okay we're done. It's constant. The cuts keep coming and we're just supposed to be okay with it? We're supposed to keep on working like everything's fine? How did we get here?

Three meetings so far today. Every single one, people staring at screens or out the window. Nobody wants to be there. Nobody is paying attention but looks like nobody cares either. What's the point??

Toxic place. Work that means nothing. Long days. Constant stress. Never feel safe. Old tech. Nowhere to grow. Raises that don't keep up. Bad bosses. Same thing every day. Skills going nowhere. What am I missing?

Seriously disgusted.

How do they justify spending company dollars on trips to Disney World when thousands are being laid off?

You don’t hate this company enough.

150 Years of History, 0 Years of Perspective

I’ve been trying to process the absolute disconnect of AT&T’s "celebration," but the more I think about it, the more insulted I feel.

Today, leadership stood up and proudly touted a $250 billion infrastructure investment. A quarter of a trillion dollars. It’s a staggering number meant to impress shareholders and the media. But for the people actually building, selling, and supporting that infrastructure? We got a sticker and a stale cookie.

The "Grand" Celebration Breakdown:

The Investment: $250,000,000,000 for the network.

The Employee Reward: A single cookie and a sticker (and only if you were lucky enough to be at a "core" location).

The Message: If you aren't a piece of hardware or a fiber line, you aren't worth the investment.

It is genuinely embarrassing to work for a company that talks a big game about "culture" and "people-first values" while treating a once-in-a-century milestone like an afterthought. 150 years is a massive achievement, yet there wasn't even an attempt at a commemorative item or a gesture that felt permanent. A cookie is gone in thirty seconds; a sticker belongs in a middle school classroom.

The Downhill Slide

We’ve watched the employee experience erode year after year. Milestone anniversaries: once a point of pride in this company, have been gutted. To see them brag about billions in spending while failing to provide even a basic token of appreciation to the global workforce is the ultimate "read the room" failure.

We aren't asking for a slice of the $250 billion. We’re asking for respect. We’re asking for a culture that actually acknowledges the human effort behind the numbers. Instead, we got a sugar crash and a piece of adhesive paper.

AT&T isn't a "family" or a "culture" at this point, it’s just a giant machine that forgot it’s powered by people.

Is everyone store high stress, bad vibes, toxic energy?

I am so sick of the absolutely toxic disgusting leaders that work here. I just spoke with my manager and I got 0 for my yearly raise, and only a minor stock bump. I am working harder than I ever have, and yet all they ask for is more. Is anyone else planning on quiet quitting? Why should I strive for excellent when my pay is mediocre?

I just heard a commercial that made me want to puke. AT&T is promoting their 150 year anniversary. DJ said how proud he was of his father's 35 year career with AT&T and how he's been through massive technological adventures. What a joke! Stinky wants you out in less than five years; no such thing as long-term employees anymore. Zero loyalty. Fu-k AT&T!

Feeling Optumistic yet?

Was a good leader. Stayed off my back and allowed me to perform. Thanks Sycamore for laying off the good ones…..

I hate the fact that even a record-breaking game launch can't save us from layoffs. What does it take, then? What the fu-k does it take not to get shown the door?

I’ll be honest, I’m struggling with my org at Oracle right now. We’ve lost so much talent and product knowledge lately that I feel like I’m just 'running the show' rather than leading. The people who stayed are totally checked out. They do the bare minimum and won't engage unless there's a promotion or hike on the table. Had to force them pushing my leads to extract more work. I know things are broken, but I’m at a loss on how to actually fix the culture and get them motivated again. Innovation is not happening at ground level. Employees are completely dissatisfied.

The morale here has hit a new low with all the layoff rumors circulating. Initially, the team was energized by AI initiatives, but it quickly turned into internal fighting over recognition. Since those 'wins' never actually materialized, everyone has just given up. They've dropped the ball on their work because they don't see the point in competing for nothing.

With AI tools available, its just copy paste happening without a thoughtful delivery. Everyone fears on danger of providing holistic solution. Had to layoff a bunch and rehire often. Product quality going to trash. Very difficult to hire a quality candidate under specific budget, Train them and Lose them.

Let’s avoid spreading rumors about layoffs- it can be really demotivating and stressful for everyone.

So whoever has been doing this for past few days- please stop!

And nobody should be flippant about it. We all have very good reasons to be anxious.

Has been the biggest joke of my life. And some of these managers are quite literally the slimiest. I can’t wait to see their sappy LinkedIn post when they lose their jobs, it’s coming.

Keep getting letter after letter telling me insurance o longer covers this and that, have to book scan though 3 rd party, meds going up , some no longer covered. Just got letter saying all our Memorial Herman facilities and doctors are in jeopardy. Exxon changed to one provider, no more choice, went up on premium, try to keep you from going to any emergency room by making you pay 10-20 percent of the entire bill, and then tailored a cheap coverage plan that only help the company... after almost 30 yrs , this is about as low as I seen from the company, Billions in profit and it saves money by cutting from its employees, the new norm..... can't wait GTFO..... I'm embarrassed to even say I work here anymore. Don't come to work for this place, it will su-k the soul out of you and you will be miserable.

Let me explain how it works here. First, actual performance is irrelevant. The people who work the hardest and produce the most are seen as threats, so they get cut, while the mediocre ones who keep their heads down and do not rock the boat stay. That is the goal: mediocrity across the board. Second, if you refuse to bow to a manager who has no business leading, you are done. They will find a way to get rid of you, and when there is no legitimate case, they cheat. They will lie, plant stories, and turn your own team against you. I have seen it happen to three people, good people who simply would not accept abuse. This is not an exception. This is the entire system.

If there's one skill AT&T has, it's taking something good and ruining it. Nobody does that better.

This whole place is embarrassing to be part of. Top to bottom.

I'm so tired of this. People who want to leave, who'd love a severance package, are stuck here waiting for the axe to fall. The company drags it out like we don't have lives to plan. This was a good place once. Really was. Now it's just gray and empty and I don't care anymore. I hope everyone here lands somewhere better whether they stay or go.

If you work for DXC you are right where you belong.
The good people have long ago left leaving behind groups of dead wood.
Sad part is, the dead wood are the ones that don't leave and are whining..
If you are working for this company in the US, you are on borrowed time. But if you are just hiding there, ride it out. Your next job will no doubt be a mimimum wager anyway.
Probably at Wal Mart or its equivalent
Glad to be gone after 10 years of carrying deadwood. ON ALL Levels!

Question for current DXC employees. Looking for honest perspectives from inside the company.

From the outside it often feels like DXC has been stuck in a long turnaround story. But what does it actually feel like to work there right now?

A few things I’m curious about:

How much do you hate or like working at the company?

What’s morale like inside your team?

Are your projects and client relationships growing, or mostly shrinking?

Do you feel like anything meaningful is actually changing at the company?

Are talented people on your team staying or are they leaving?

Is your manager engaged with your team or mostly invisible?

Do you feel leadership communicates clearly about what they are doing to grow the company or does it feel vague?

Are new projects focused on modern tech (cloud/AI) or mostly legacy systems?

How realistic are internal targets and deadlines?

Do teams feel stable or is there constant reorganization?

Do you feel the company invests in employee development or mostly focuses on cost cutting?

Would you recommend a friend to join DXC right now?

Really interested in real experiences from people inside the company...

Morale is in the gutter, and leadership clearly doesn’t care about keeping people motivated.
It’s ki-ling my ability to concentrate. Everything feels pointless when your work could vanish any day.
For anyone who’s been through this:

• How do you force yourself to stay productive?
• Do you keep performing at a high level, or just coast until it’s over?

Appreciate any realistic advice—especially from people who’ve survived multiple rounds.

Any other tenured SMB reps on here also seriously missing the vibrant and fun culture of old? Completely gone at this point and morale at all-time low. Quality of management also at all-time low, zero value provided day-to-day beyond pipeline review and “let me know if I can help”, and just an overall toxic environment. No wonder so many reps have left on their own accord over the last few years.

Feels like 44 tho

It turns people who once cared about their work into people who just watch the clock

Look, I get being unhappy. This place gives plenty of reasons. But if you're at the point where you're just bringing everyone down, maybe it's time to go. The constant complaining, the negativity, it gets into the walls. It becomes part of the culture. If you can't find a way to be even a little okay here, leaving might help you and help the people who stay.

People who communicated clearly and made you believe in the direction. Those people are gone. The ones running things now, I can't even follow their sentences half the time. Don't even get me started on the strategy. No idea what it is. They promote people who sound good in meetings but can't actually lead. And then they wonder why the good ones keep walking.

Thought you had a future in this industry? Too bad. That's the message we keep getting.

The one topic that gets everyone nodding along is how much we'd all rather be somewhere else. We don't bond over the mission or the culture or the work. We bond over wanting to escape it. There's something deeply ironic about that. A whole workforce united by the shared goal of not being part of the workforce. Great job, BofA.

There was a time they would have addressed it, or at least pretended to. Leadership these days doesn't seem to care. It's bizarre. You get the feeling that if everything fell apart, they wouldn't blink. I guess astronomical income has a way of making you deeply uninterested in what happens next.

That feeling is completely dead now. If you told me 15 years ago this is where we'd be, I'd call you a liar. Yet, here we are.
