Reorganizations and Change Management

One thing that Optum lacks is Change Management processes. They will reorganize teams and expect people to get on board or even understand the new function. And then wonder why morale and performance is low. And with the RIFS happening good people are not performing at the capacity because NO ONE knows what they are supposed to be doing. Because leaders do not either. I missed when leaders actually led. Now everyone just wants to peacock and look the part. What a sad time in our company.


This will be a hard post as I have to be vague.

So after the multi phased layoff, re-orgs, I have a MD 3 layers up that does not understand the tech they are over. No shocker there, but they are making decisions that more than hamper operations. I can’t be specific naturally but let’s just say they are out of their depth.

It’s like “so you need nails to build a house, are you sure you can’t cut back on the number of nails used? or let’s try using half the nails, how about that?. If you aren’t sure if the structure can remain standing, then just build half of the house.”

That’s as close to an example I can give without jeopardizing my employment but you can see how odd and reckless this is. Now imagine trying to explain the folly of using half of the nails and\or building only half of the house and they just don’t get it.


New org - same old

on the ask me anything session. Here's a summary:
"blah blah, strategic blah blah excited, blah blah Ai, blah blah blah No Layoffs"

So hard to believe any of this, the actions of the past years do nothing to support them. The leaders are powerless, only Christian, Dominik and S/O have the power and make the cuts.


Nike stock value

In November of 2021, nike stock traded at nearly $170 per share. Five years later and the stock is trading consistently sideways in the low $60’s, with no end in sight. Despite leadership purchases, leadership changes, constant layoffs, reorg’s, buy backs and a retail / wholesale reset, nike is one of the worst performing stocks out there. Today it’s trading at $59 and may go lower. A nearly %280 drop in valuation. Unbelievable.


Post Fidelity life

I visited here last year when there was a reorg and am now on the outside, so wanted to leave a few things I learned.

  • There are a lot of useless managers and just as many su-k-ups to match. Don’t expect them to ever do the right thing, they won’t.
  • Constant rumors wrecked people’s mental health. Many people are just trying to hang on until X date. Don’t be one. Make a kicka$$ plan B, one that you look forward to.
  • The layoff process and package will not be equitable. Don’t believe you will get what others got. And don’t think they will be kind.
  • Loved the benefits, the mission and the customers. Made many great friends and don’t regret my time there. But life on the outside is way better than I expected, don’t be afraid to leave.

Good luck everyone!


Kyndryl Recognized As A "Most Loved Workplaces" - Seriously???

Saw this on LinkedIn today, what a joke! I don't work at Kyndryl anymore, but I remember my time there and it was brutal. Leadership constantly switching to the next big thing, reorgs every 3 to 6 months, managers who didn't have a clue about what was going on internally or on projects, and a workforce with very low morale. And now "Most Loved Workplaces." Maybe things turned around quickly, lol. I don't think so.


Musical Chairs

If I was running a company, I too would just spend the majority of the time, shifting people around re-organizing restructuring the departments and hope eventually we would make money

I wouldn’t worry about the role responsibility confusion or ramp up time to get everybody knowledgeable about what they need to do I would just keep on shiftin


TrueCar Cuts Workforce After Founder Reacquires Company

TrueCar today reduced its staff by 30%. This action follows the company's recent privatization. Founder Scott Painter led a $227 million acquisition of the company. Painter also rejoined TrueCar as its chief executive. New leadership reevaluated operations, leading to these layoffs.

Bank restructuring

So today was the first day of phase 1 of this bank restructuring/re-org. Not only was my team disbanded, but our BA & BBPC were impacted on January 28, and those 2 did a ton of work and were the main reasons we were able to closeout our 6 issues on time last year. With them now gone, someone has to pick up that work, so it landed on ME! So now I’m on this new team, handling a different product, so not only I’m I having to learn this product, but the work from our BA & BBPC still falls on me, I asked my new ED about this, she only said “we haven’t fully thought all this out yet, but stick with us, we’re all learning on the spot.”

Learning on the spot, what genius thought this re-org was a great idea? Was it Mike Moran and the 3rd party consultant group he brought in last year? This is going to be a huge cluster f_ck before it’s all said and done.


Do Managers and Senior Managers have to contribute now?

As part of flattening the organization, Managers and Senior Managers don’t have duties of people management. Directors are having them now. And thus they are now strictly technical. Do Managers and Senior Managers have to contribute now? In other words, do they now have to work on tasks like others on the team?

Verizon’s Real Roadblock: Silos, Overlapping Vendors, and Supervisor Layers Holding Us Back , A Practical Fix Plan

Verizon is in the thick of reorganization, trying to claw back ground from T-Mobile and AT&T. The layoffs and cost programs are getting headlines, but the company is still slowed by internal issues that are structural rather than strategic.

Every major part of the business (Consumer Group, Business Group, Consumer Sales, and Network) runs like its own little kingdom. Each one has its own infrastructure team, its own asset management approach, its own platforms, and its own favorite vendors. That setup guarantees duplication: similar work gets done multiple times with slightly different tools, standards, and contracts. Then layer on several consulting firms and managed service providers tackling overlapping scopes across those same areas, plus internal supervisors whose primary role is to oversee the vendors. The result is expensive redundancy that drags down speed and inflates costs without improving outcomes.

Many of those supervisor positions actively push back against meaningful offshoring or clean outsourcing, often raising security or control objections. Yet T-Mobile and AT&T have been offshoring large pieces of retail support, IT, and back office functions for years by using proven safeguards and achieving real savings. Keeping these roles protects headcount in the short term, but it also protects bureaucracy and, in too many cases, creates space for favoritism where vendor selection has more to do with relationships than performance.

Competitors who centralize infrastructure, limit vendors, and draw clear lines between internal and outsourced work simply move faster and spend smarter.

Verizon needs to follow suit.

A Four Step Plan to Remove Internal Drag
1)Unify infrastructure under one team
Combine network, IT, cloud, security, and asset management into a single group that serves every line of business.
End the “my division, my solution” mindset. This single shift could eliminate 20% to 30% of redundant effort and sharply accelerate delivery.

2) Tighten vendor control
Move to one or two preferred vendors maximum per major category. Require open competitive bidding, publish performance scorecards, and conduct regular audits to block favoritism or kickback risks. Stop letting every group pick its own suppliers.

3) Set firm make versus buy rules
Decide once which capabilities stay fully in house, which go fully to managed services, and which are clean hybrids.

Replace layers of supervisor oversight with automated monitoring tools and exception based reporting. Phase out roles whose main purpose is to babysit outsourcing.

4) Reward company wide efficiency over silos
Change bonus structures so managers and executives are judged on cross business metrics: lower duplication, reduced vendor spend per unit, and faster project cycles, not just their own division numbers.
Support union discussions with fair retraining and severance packages so routine work can be offshored the way competitors already do successfully.

These steps are not complicated or untested; they mirror exactly what T-Mobile and AT&T execute to stay lean and quick. Putting them in place would cut the waste that quietly erodes our edge, free up capital for customer innovation and network leadership, and show the market we are finally operating like one unified and competitive company instead of a collection of mini empires.

The reorganization is the perfect window. Fix the structure now, and the turnaround stops being incremental; it becomes real.


You know what su-ks?

Having to deal with constant reorgs, layoffs, an increasingly toxic culture, shrinking benefits, and all the other nonsense would be easier to swallow if we were at least paid well. Instead, we’re paid less than most of our competitors, which just adds insult to injury. There’s no upside to working here. None.

Impacts of January announcements?

Anyone know what the impacts are yet from Julie's announcements? I left in Summer 2024, and I have been interviewing to come back. The final round has been on hold until the set the final organizational changes. Seems the leaders dont have a clue what's up in USBU, GPD(now international).
Any hints?


Continued Efforts to Create Attrition

Enterprise Reimagined was positioned as a top down reorganization to ensure headcount was aligned to efforts appropriately. People were laid off, demoted, and moved to new teams. The dust on all of that hasn't settled yet and the firm is introducing more policies that obviously intend to get people to quit. Enterprise Reimagined should have accomplished any headcount reduction goals.

Bonus levels right after this were a 9 instead of a 10...so these changes aren't even yielding expected profits since the norm has been to have level 10 bonuses.

Such a colossal waste of time. Leadership is more interested in torturing home office associates and exerting control rather than creating business results.


What are you hearing about Feb 9th week for Support Office layoffs?

Tons of rumors about layoffs starting Wednesday or Thursday, followed by a town hall. And/or significant re-organization. What groups are you hearing will be impacted? Are there any areas deemed "safe" from layoffs? Feels like something big is about to happen.


2026 Walmart Layoff Likelihood

Here’s our take on potential Walmart layoffs in a different format based on likelihood:

  1. 0% chance of layoffs before 2/25.
  2. From 2/26 through 3/8 low chance of <10%.
  3. Period starting 3/9 through 4/8 elevated to 30%.
  4. From 4/9 to 5/5 increases again to 60%.
  5. After 5/5 and through 6/28 we see 100% likelihood

Many factors are at play here (not in specific order): Project and budget demands are being shuffled; leadership changes are filtering down; reorganization activities and silos of responsibility are moving; built in stabile time surrounding earnings release and other stockholder and fiduciary dates; reevaluation of AI implementation and prioritization, plus more.

We expect some surprises related to AI development and implementation plus more resource actions at non-Bentonville locations. Efforts to streamline and automate logistics and distribution will be a focus area.

The new CEO might have his own plan on figuring out the tech mess. Practically everything on the horizon needs technical implementation and having a fractured tech area is problematic.

We see 2026 as a pivotal year for Walmart in the area of AI development and implementation.


Help me out please

I work in downstream, was given a date for severance in april due to reorg. Managers said I could post out internally but if I’m not selected. I will receive my severance. I was out on fmla leave last week, then I get the news today. I was escorted out. Is it normal to have gcc, phone, laptop, GI card and facility access taken? How would I be able to apply internally? Or was it a way of saying you’re fired? I have a lot of people depending on me. Just looking for help. 36 year old. Been with shell 7 years going on 8, not no more it looks like. Lol
