On the bright side, it's the last time I have endure Micky Onvural making d-mb cuts. Good luck, team!

A new strategy for work
I'm done going above and beyond. From now on I'm just doing exactly what's required and keeping a low profile. Putting in extra effort here has never been appreciated, so I'm stopping.
AIG is broken
It went from a good place with a future to a sinking ship. Management only cares about the stock price, not fixing our old systems or keeping people. The original idea is dead and we're all just waiting for the next bad news.
Even more cuts
Is Amazon ever planning to stop? What, does Bezos need another mega-yacht? What the he-l is happening to this place?
Worst Leadership Team Ever
I’ve been around long enough to see multiple versions of Nike’s SLT come and go. This one is easily the worst. Even with natural turnover over the years, I’ve never seen a group this ineffective or directionless. There’s no real vision, no sense of how to move the company forward. Even the person at the top seems to be winging it. Hard to see how this ends well. The company feels beyond saving.
This leadership is useless
They only rely on layoffs and cost cuts and then they wonder why the stock keeps going down. Can we get some competent people in charge, please?
I despise this company
I have never in my life felt more contempt for an organization than I do for UHG. Their revenue comes from denying medical care and stealing from the federal government. Our CEO is like a Frankenstein-esque combination of Darth Vader and Mr. Burns. They treat their employees like s--- and outsource jobs to Indians who barely speak English and couldn't code their way out of a paper bag. UHG is basically a corporate sweatshop.
And let's not forget about the incompetent, soulless freaks who make up the executive team. You gotta love working under 12 layers of id--ts who spend their days not actually doing anything productive but sitting in meetings planning how to cut costs and squeeze more work out of their burned out employees. F this place.
Leave Blackbaud!
Nobody should be surprised Blackbaud is getting worse and worse. You literally have no excuses. Find anything better as soon as you can!
I left years ago and it‘s the best decision I‘ve ever made. Hearing about Mike‘s latest email is awful. You only have yourselves to blame if you keep your head in the sand and think either things will get better or you won’t be affected soon.
Everyone has an expiry date. Don‘t let them trigger it early on their terms.
Can't sleep
Anyone else up waiting for the impending doom?
Winter is coming: A tale of Snow and PIPs
The first flakes drifted down over the city, soft and silent, promising a weekend of snowdrifts, frozen driveways, and the kind of cold that makes you grateful for firewood and LED candles. Neighbors huddled indoors, swapping soup recipes and checking weather apps like fortune tellers.
But inside the office buildings, another kind of storm brewed. HR invites fell like icy pellets: “We regret to inform you…” As those words echoed, the blizzard outside was matched by a blizzard of layoffs and PIPs inside. Cubicles emptied of cheer faster than sidewalks, and the chill wasn’t just in the air — it was in the morale.
Employees joked darkly: “Winter is coming.”Some meant the snowstorm barreling toward the city. Others meant the quarterly layoffs and PIPs barreling toward their careers. Both were inevitable, both demanded preparation.
So, just as families stocked up on groceries and salt for the driveway, workers stocked up on résumés and LinkedIn updates. The fireplace crackled at home, while leadership churned out performance metrics and “action plans.”
And in the end, everyone learned the same lesson: whether it’s snowflakes or layoffs and PIPs, winter always comes — and the only way through is to be prepared, keep warm, and remember that spring eventually follows.
Symantec and Carbon Black folks, we are just resting and vesting.
What a great life here!
Promotions
Im sorry but that list was comical. So many people on it who dont know sh-t and don't do sh-t. Yet they got promoted to VP. How tf does this sh-t even make sense? Yet others are being looked over who earned those titles. FU BNY!!!! count your days.
Call me crazy but…
I wouldn’t mind being on that list tomorrow.
I don’t like anything about this company. I’ve
seen my team(s) slowly fire onshore only
and slowly hire offshore only. Probably
speaking from a place of privilege, but not
having any more sleepless nights filled with
anxiety would be nice. At least until the next
j*b, that is.
Welcome Tributes to the 116th monthly Hunger Games!! May the odds be forever be in your favor……
and so it begins again
bp: where culture cracks and clocks start ticking
Spotted: a once-mighty corporate empire teetering on the edge of its own contradictions. After sweeping layoffs, the remaining employees are left juggling heavier workloads, thinner resources, and a shiny new “way of working” that—surprise—just isn’t working. The halls whisper of burnout, while inboxes scream urgency, and morale quietly slips through the cracks. Efficiency? Innovation? Collaboration? Please. When survival mode becomes the daily dress code, even the most loyal insiders start wondering if leadership is actually watching… or just missing the point entirely.
And now comes the latest twist: employee tracking. Yes, tracking. As if productivity can be measured by the minute hand of a clock and not the brilliance of a mind. Word on the floor is that time spent in the office will soon be monitored like wildlife in a nature documentary, proving once and for all that leadership’s priorities are spectacularly backwards. Because nothing says “we trust you” like surveillance, right? If they truly believe that counting hours instead of cultivating culture will spark performance, then someone clearly skipped the memo on modern work.
Kel B
Kel B just sent out a message saying that we will achieve client success by using AI. People are getting fired left and right, morale is terrible, FT call center is getting closed and all they can say is AI. This is beyond stupid. She schedules her meetings almost every month and it's all about AI, that's the best you can do??
PBM Department SU-KS!
I had to vent I am finished.
Over the past several years, it’s become clear that my team has been operating under the wrong organizational structure. As a result, many of the processes we support have been sustained only through workarounds created by clinics and patients themselves. It’s difficult to see this department remaining viable in the long term if things continue in their current direction.
Leadership has played a significant role in the decline of the team. The current manager has not provided meaningful support or advocacy, and decisions often feel disconnected from the needs of the staff. The supervisory team seems more focused on protecting leadership than addressing ongoing issues, which has created a sense of frustration and confusion.
I genuinely miss my previous supervisor, who provided positivity and encouragement her departure highlighted just how stressful the environment has become. Since then, the culture has shifted dramatically, and the workplace has grown increasingly difficult to navigate. After more than seven years here, I’m actively searching for a new opportunity. The environment has become too toxic to remain in, especially after recent leadership changes. I wish the best to anyone else who is also looking for a fresh start.
We are the Cleveland Browns
This company feels like a team stuck with bad coaches who refuse to adapt, and the scoreboard proves it. You don’t win by wearing out your players. You win by putting them in a position to succeed.
Employees aren’t asking for less accountability. They’re asking for flexibility, which most of the market already offers. If five day RTO actually drove performance, we would see it in execution, morale, retention, and the stock. We don’t. We see burnout, attrition, and continued underperformance.
In sports, when coaches pile up losing seasons, blow money on bad deals, and lose the locker room, they don’t get more time to tighten discipline. They get fired. And we already have a losing record. Years of bad acquisitions, billions written off, talent walking, and a stock that can’t keep pace with the league.
Good coaches listen to feedback and adjust. Bad coaches double down, blame the players, and keep losing. Flexibility is the fix. Rigid RTO is the mistake. Until leadership accepts that, this team isn’t turning the season around.
What happened to Schwab?
It went from being a top place to work to feeling like they're actively trying to stress us out. The change over the last few years has been unbelievable.
T-Mobile Ran Into The Ground
It’s clear that the amount of greed here is at the top of the list. This company will fold within a few years.
SETH
Will MW be man enough to answer tough questions from his completely demoralized and angry work force? We all know he's not amd will just take soft ball questions and won't speak about how bad morale is!
Team completely decimated
The majority of the team is gone, and only a few people remain. I genuinely do not know whether being laid off or being left behind is the worse outcome.
UK is Doomed
Captain Mainwaring ordered his beleaguered troops to work harder to get yet another 0% pay rise. Nice work DA, that was a masterclass in how to p1ss off your staff even more. Maybe this clown should look in the mirror and realise he is the problem? All he’s overseen is contract run-offs and now they are drying up, nothing is coming in. Funny that but it’s all the poor employees fault for not working hard enough. No Captain, it’s your set up, your cronies and your skills at trying to run the company as a military set up that’s failing. It’s not hard, look after your staff and the rest will look after itself. We’re not 16 year old squaddies standing in line taking your orders. Dismissed…
Training WRS
Not layoff related but are any other credentialing teams feeling overworked and exhausted? Most of the onboarding teams are about to be pulled from files to train new WRS people without any appreciation or additional pay. Wouldn't be surprised if we see half the company leave within the next few months.
My thoughts on Chubak and his changes
When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king; the palace becomes a circus.
Things have gone downhill ever since he started at Edward Jones.

Stop avoiding the Talk To US survey
Too many of you avoid it and think we are being tracked. For god's sake reply to it and DESTROY any question that talks about Managing Committee, Senior Leadership, Leadership, etc.
Yes I know they won't do anything but if you don't share you voice, they will assume the rosey picture they get from all the boot lickers is the majority and those of us who hate the leadership are a small minority.
I am tired of her saying things like "according to the surveys, morale is pretty high". Take that lame a-s excuse from her.
When I first came here as a than unhappy FTOW it’s funny how…
A lot of what I thought would happen is starting to happen right now. I’m not here anymore but figured I’d see as to is anything was changing and it turns out that the RTM position was tested in a few markets and now it’s rolling out in many areas probably most. Makes me even more glad I got out.
I was always saying to myself that my reasoning why it hadn’t yet been implemented in our area was that it would happen under the circumstances that enough reps and/or RMS’ would leave that they would just give everyone left one giant territory and that the person will have the duties of a sales rep while doing the duties like scheduling and everything else a typical manager would do. But since none of the people who said they would leave left it would be a matter of when this rolls out nationwide,
Can’t see why they have to make things worse than mission 1. With the amount of people who take packages im willing to bet that anyone who isn’t looking to leave sales rep RMS or DM will most likely have a job. With the amount who will likely leave they will likely make the territories for these people even bigger which would have to expand the role of the FTOWs.
Problem is they don’t have the manpower from FTOW. Not enough people are interested in it. Even from the outside world they can’t get anyone to work for them. Can’t blame them I was overworked and treated like such cr-p towards the end. Had I not gotten out this is what I’d be dealing with. Even worse being pushed harder while still having the same absymal pay.
Sarah London is clueless
The people who run this company do not know what to do! Every directive we get from the top makes no sense and makes all of our jobs harder! This business is built on collecting free money from tax payers and the Idots still cant make it work!
Engineering productivity drops during weeks of layoff uncertainty.
Perhaps addressing the rumors by confirming or discounting them would allay fears.
Everybody but your dog you can all eff off (Deutsche Telekom/ Srini Gopalan)
Welcome to corporate America. They call it ‘restructuring’ when profits are protected and people are discarded.
Nothing makes sense anymore
The strategy, who they chose to lay off, demotions...unless the goal is to ki-l morale and destroy the company. Then, things make perfect sense.
Mulling over pnc offer rto is a minus. Do they stack rank? Activity tracking?
Our place stack ranks for reviews and it's terrible for morale. What about in office hours? When you rto do they mandate hours? 8 min? What about activity and keystroke reports? The salary is comparable but rto five days is a red flag. I can't ask the recruiter some of these things but they matter for quality of life.
Subtle (and nonsubtle) disengagement
Its been interesting to see the small and not-so-small ways that people have been tuning out since Charlie Scharf took the helm and the never-ending march of layoffs started. From small shifts in attitude and lowered enthusiasm, to slow walking projects, all the way up to people drawing hard boundaries on their time, and what their teams have the resources to deliver. I can't remember the last time I talked to someone who was enthusiastic about being here, or actively trying to make things better.
Company incompetent or blissfully ignorant?
At this point it’s been 1 week since rest of VSPs left. Company is complete disarray. Comments on CF social media posts show members frustration and lack of any response from CF. How has this mess not made it to at a minimum WBAL? CF leaders have sc--wed the employees and the downstream is a place members lack any confidence in. If bonuses go away, only offshore support will exist, and we all know they care about the income not the fix. Any word when reviews come out or what bonuses are looking like?
Compensation planning still not opened
Was told it would open yesterday (which was questionable since it was a holiday), wasn’t there. Checked again today and still not there.
Just a terrible way this company is handling everything.
So there is no update on comp.
As if PDC couldn't get any worse...
Now we have LED lighting going in. It's way too bright. Bring a ball cap.
Nothing else matters but:
- Credit
- sth results
- App downloads
Are you all told the same?
In store sales, low staffing levels, customer service scores/complaints , merchandising standards, deferred store maintenance, are not a priority?
What is happening? Why are in store sales not a major focus? Why are associates, key holders, leads, and some floor managers kept out of the loop? What’s really going on here?
