Well, Ramon and his boys promised a record year of “productivity”. That means the biggest year yet of changes and their hand in your pocket. Is anyone else walking funny yet?

"doing your job well is no longer enough"
Overachieve every quarter, showcase excellent results, customer satisfaction, retention upsell.
All that doesn't matter anymore, you want more pay ? You want a promotion ? Bullsh-t stretch assignments is the only way.
It wasn't like this before, we can thank NetApp for hiring the laziest, cr-ppiest leadership teams straight out of the gutter of other hyperscalers, starting with a horrible HR policy.
Oh and that is based on the idea that NetApp actually pays commissions. We on month 4 and still not information on payments. Finance is stretched, so they say.
Begs the question, is NetApp led by incompetent fools, or malicious id--ts.
Josh Warren With the Chainsaw
Welcome to the new FactSet to ring in the new fiscal year. Demolishing the company culture and we all just have to be grateful to not get laid off. This guy has been here for less than six months lol
Cult like atmosphere
I work in a flagship mall location
The best way I can describe this vibe in this store is cult like
And if you are not in the cult or have a mind of your own you are shunned
A bunch of people have quit and said once you go work someplace else, it’s very evident that belk is a cult
We lost two more people
I wish it was me. I really do. There's no way in he-l we'll be able to do all of our work without them unless we completely give up our personal lives. They think we're automatons who can keep doing more and more all the time. We're not. We're human and this will break so many of us.
Thank God
Thank god this garbage company is gone. The worst run company of all time!
You can give them the world and they will show you the door
Comment if you know coworkers who have done incredible work and have been shown the door. Toast to those fallen but definitely not forgotten!
Please lay me off tomorrow God
Wearing my pajamas inside and praying tonight that I’m so blessed to be laid off. Please please please
slack count - 28.5k - 5:06pm CST
very sad day, people I use to look upto got laid off, including my manager!
Culture Survey
Within the next two weeks. It will be a blood bath!
Inside Sales Worst Job at Dell
Dell sales can be one of the toughest / least enjoyable jobs inside Dell…You go first!
This is no way to live
My manager got cut. My colleagues got cut. I feel extremely nervous every minute, just waiting for my turn. I’ve been trying to find another position, but it hasn’t been going well.
Sorry for venting. I’m trying to stay strong, but it’s not easy.
At Elevance, making more money is a liability
Consider yourself cooked if you're paid higher than your peers.
Looks like it'll be wrapped up today
That would be a small mercy in this whole mess.
Sinking Ship
Based on recent organizational/Team changes throughout the company, recent executive departures, plans leaving states, hospitals/PCP going out of network ( Especially in NY) and the employee sentiment on this page, Centene feels like a sinking ship, and is sinking faster than anyone could have anticipated.
It's been two months since the divorce
Do you miss us yet?
The lost cause
I have no hopes for tomorrow. Dell has successfully gotten rid of the people who could fix things, and this leadership is only focused on their own pockets. There's no saving this.
whats common with Fiserv and Japanese airlines?
Japan Airlines was $25 billion in debt. Bankruptcy declared. 16,000 jobs on the line. CEO Haruka Nishimatsu didn't call a press conference.
He cut his own salary to $90,000 - less than his pilots. Canceled the executive dining room. Took the bus to work. No bodyguards. No reserved parking. No perks. While other CEOs drafted layoff lists from penthouse suites, Nishimatsu stood in the cafeteria line with ground crew. Workers noticed.
Morale shifted. In 3 years, Japan Airlines went
from the largest airline bankruptcy in history... to the most profitable airline in the world. It relisted on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 2012. That wasn't a turnaround plan. That was one man choosing accountability over comfort. Lesson: Most companies don't fail because of bad markets. They fail because leaders protect themselves first.
It's not miracle that saved Japanese airlines. It's the attitudes of leaders that saved. Hope ppl notices.
Take Care
Heard from someone it will be all week which is so brutal. What a nightmare of a company. I’m sure I. Cruz over HR is sleeping just fine though.
Ireland Layoffs
What is going on?? Every week people are being tapped. Zero morale left onsite. Limerick has lost it's buzz entirely. Everyone fretting. You can feel the damn tension in the air! Dub & Cork are ye in the same boat??
What's life at Verizon like right now?
Lets hear it from each depratment
I’m hoping the best for you, whatever that is.
Tomorrow is approaching for those in the US, and with whatever you’re hoping to have happen tomorrow, I hope you’re going to be ok. I’m honestly sick to my stomach. We just had our son in April, and as the primary income earner of the house, I’m scared. Working in tech support feels like being a crew member on the Titanic. I’m mid 30s now. Not sure how to support a household and go back to school.
I know a lot of people are indifferent, or just want to it to happen. “Quit if you hate that much” has been mentioned a lot. And I’m definitely angry at the company. I would quit if there wasn’t anyone depending on me. The job market seems uncertain right now. My resumes looks depressing all of a sudden. It’s all exhausting.
Good luck tomorrow. Whatever you’re hoping for. I hope you come out the other side net positive.
Worst place to ever work wow
I endured 3 years on the core line with many promises of a role switch after my "2 year commitment" in the end it was all just a lie. Oh well.
Get your licenses, learn the ropes and get out while you can asap.
Life at FIS
Layoffs and work transferred to offshore. No new software development effort. Company is in "keep lights on" mode. No new hiring in US. Only transfer of India employees on L1 visa allowed, and that too in rare and extreme cases.
There will be wave after wave of layoff coming up. Employees at staff level are just numbers. Executives level don't care anything other than their bonus.
We are all stuck in mud, waiting our day to get riffed.
So sad to witness the slow death of Qualcomm
Qualcomm produced nothing in AI. Failed to get into data center business. Modem losing market share. Laptop business getting nowhere. Poor employee moral. Investor day failed bad. Investors gave up on the stock.
Very bad situation with no way out
Sunday scaries strikes again
I want to vomit. The only thing I would miss from this job is the cell phone
Great Colleagues
In a tough environment, your colleagues can really make a difference. With all of the rapid fire changes, collaborative, experienced and, sure, funny colleagues are what helps the most.
Two CEOs. Two Very Different Legacies.
Tim Cook steps down as Apple, $AAPL, CEO on August 31 after taking the company from ~$350 billion to over $4 trillion.
John Stankey steps down as AT&T, $T, CEO after taking the company from ~$215 billion to ~$178 billion.
Apple increased its market cap by roughly $3.65 trillion and AT&T lost roughly $37 billion.
Six years. Two CEOs. Completely different outcomes. I wonder why?
One led through massive innovation and growth. The other spent years making questionable strategic decisions resulting in failures of epic proportions, while simultaneously alienating the workforce with policies like 5x RTO, cutting costs and talent, and destroying culture and morale.
But I’m sure Stankey will find a way to explain how all of this is somehow the employees’ fault.
Get this l0ser Stankey out!
Why are all the mid-career employees leaving campus?
I get it, they will not be promoted. We don’t want them over us. But that doesn't mean they have to leave. Just take the paycheck, be quiet, and don’t ask for a career. That’s not too much to ask. Like promotes like, we only promote what looks like us, sorry…
More layoffs coming Monday
More layoffs are set to roll out in America on Monday. I'm numb. 2.48 billion dollar revenue but they still decide to layoff the people making it happen. This is beyond parody. SHAPE survey comes out and says people are unhappy and Synopsys leadership decides to keep beating the dead horse. Unbelievable
FrontEnd Teams absolutely need to go
Idk where to begin but I feel the website is an absolute trash. Like batshit trash.
I tried to add the Google AI pro on my FIOS plan and well, you can't.
Why the heck it is so difficult to navigate through the website?
Same with Verizon Dollars, can't find what is the balance on my Verizon dollars. The chatbot does not respond.
Tried to call in the service rep, it literally said the VOICEMAIL iS FULL and hanged up. My wife next to me literally started laughing as how can a company this big is so full of cr-p.
XOM and skydiving
Current XOM is like a skydiver that was forced to jump out of the plane not wearing a parachute while being required to report back to the Flight Crew every 10 seconds with a status update.
For the first several updates, everything is going exactly per plan and the Flight Crew, especially the Captain, pats themselves on the back, hands out record bonuses to each other and determines that everything is going so great, the other skydivers on the plane are forced to jump sans-chute too.
But that last status update will eventually come in from the Ground Crew and no one but the Flight Crew will be surprised.
Factory of Sadness
This video popped on in my queue yesterday by comedian Mike Polk talking about the Cleveland Browns. He refers to the stadium as a Factory of Sadness.
https://youtu.be/tRBDMMVctu8?is=tXMzBXiPacbMlXNI
And I thought holy $hit, that’s Wells Fargo. A factory of sadness.
Truist Investments Morale
We’ve had a lot thrown at us over the last 18-24 months. How’s everyone feeling?
New Workstation Wallpaper Dropped
...I woke-up this morning & logged-in without coffee yet, dutiful as ever, only to be blasted half awoken by the new wallpaper shooting bright white laserbeams directly into my face.
You can't hate what this place has become enough. Just so fücking stupid & pointless to have no agency in even setting a desktop background. It's still burning into my face as I gripe.
Message/orders understood - I'll only ever work when it's light outside, fücking id--ts.
sad
I received no raise, while execs... including Hemsley... continues to receive mega comp packages. If employes are being asked to accept stagnant pay because of the company’s performance and financial challenges, exec compshould be subject to the same scrutiny... and sacrifice.
I have been with UnitedHealthcare for more than 20 yrs & it is frustrating to watch longtime employees feel undervalued while leadership continues to be well compensated. Folks are tired of hearing the same corp messaging quarter after quarter without seeing meaningful improvements in our compensation or working conditions.
At some point, leadership needs to recognize that employee loyalty has limits. Period... If the co wants to retain experienced people, it needs to demonstrate that through competitive pay and meaningful raises - not simply words of appreciation. Employees cannot continually be expected to absorb the consequences of management decisions while executives remain financially insulated from them.
Its sad discouraging to see news about employees receiving little or nothing in additional compensation while the company's stock responds positively. That sends a terrible message to the people who have spent years helping build and operate this organization. Please start listening to employees and appropriately compensating the people doing the work. Otherwise UHC should not be surprised when experienced employees decide they have had enough and leave.
Nike Leadership
It's only vibes and fake narratives. 0% substance or achievements.
That'd be the entire post.
Utilization Review Leaders Lied
The 800 nurses working under the utilization review umbrella were lied to or was it a bait and switch? The nurses were told a new work hour schedule was in the works -the nurses would be notified this week and the new hours would start Monday 8/31/26
Today in an email that was very flip they ignored the fact they LIED and said the schedule would be released next week to start 09/30/26 Humana Values Really — Golden Rule — NO
—-Team with TRUST —NO
The Leaders all need to be Fired
Morale is at all time low
Not professional
Essendant is Done 8/31/2026
It's over, sycamore ran it into the ground. Sad day for past and present employees.
The only way this matters
is it they actually live what they preach. And yhr honest truth is we know they won't and their leaders won't. Those who try will find themselves exiting the business.
