#motivation

Leaving was the hardest decision I’ve ever made, but it ended up being the right one. The first few months were rough, with anxiety, second guessing, and sleepless nights, but once the dust settled, I realized how much lighter life felt. For anyone stuck in that same place, know that leaving doesn’t make you reckless.

When leadership doesn’t care, why should we keep breaking ourselves to make them look good?

Just heard that unless you land a placed positions through the wave 1 or wave 2 selection events at a higher PSG, there will be no promotions this year.

Great news all around. 4 days in office, and no merit based promotions. Really makes things motivating around here.

Is the bs they are telling claims. Even the wfh employees that they are needed. But no promotions or openings for wfh, only in hubs. Very suspicious. Appears as if they are moving jobs to the hub but with 40% of the workforce being fully wfh how would they ever get it all into the hubs? Everyone is miserable and praying for the exit offer.

Given that the lay off selection didn't consider a person's performance rating, how on earth does Oracle think they can motivate the employees who remain ?

Well, apart from maintaining a culture of fear and simply telling them that "youre lucky you still have a job".

Thank you for your service .... sorry, no focal again.

The only real motivation at this company is to not totally sc--w over the counter workers you actually like. If not for that I would do nothing and wait 6 months for this garbage company to fire me.

Maybe your best won't be good enough. But maybe you'll go all in and come out with everything. There's only one way to find out.

Is it me, or do Nike's ads at these times of layoffs, low share price etc speak to themselves...

Sorry for all let go this time.

For those left, you know its only a matter of time

What do you think are the real reasons for this layoff? We've all been given the corporate line, but I’m curious how each of you sees the actual reasons behind the cuts. It would also be helpful if people responding could share where they roll up into (I realize this may be sensitive, so please skip that part if you’re not comfortable).

I’m not trolling or fishing for information. Enough has already been said in other threads about the various challenges. I’m genuinely interested in hearing how people think about what’s happening.

I get that jobs aren’t meant to be fun all the time, but dreading every Sunday and counting the hours till Friday isn’t normal. Why have we just accepted misery as part of the deal? Shouldn’t there be a better balance than this?

This is my third carrier in 10 years and by far the most clueless organization I’ve ever been part of. Too many of the tenured managers don’t care anymore and that seems to be problem 1. Best of luck to those who remain. 2 years has been enough for me.

Come back! Show us a real leader! Let's fiesta!
