Tech

Kind of eerie how slack has gone silent, meetings are canceling, parking lot is sparse and there is no work going on.
I would think it wasn’t a great idea for the new tech leaders to announce layoffs 2 months ago with no timeframe or updates since. That type of blunder alone that caused such low work output should put them on the chopping block.

Yes yes to those of you working 80 hours a week, you’re amazing. We see you. You matter.


Is the Silence a Sign of Upcoming Layoffs?

For those who are connected with upper-level management, should we expect layoffs soon?

Things feel unusually quiet lately. It’s hard to tell whether it’s just a normal cycle or something else, but the silence feels a bit unsettling.

Not trying to spread rumors...just looking for perspective if anyone has insights.


No point in trying too hard at this point

I'm curious what my raise will be this year considering that my group was moved to a director who has been MIA for the last year - minus his 5-7 minute 1x1s with everyone. No clue what we actually do, no idea what each individual does. The only info he gets is from our previous manager - our PM now - and I suppose and hope new manager dictates raises based off of old manager...

Not expecting anything great but hoping for a 4% lmfao. LIkely it'll be a meaningless 3.2 but I guess that'll offset some taxes...

I mean, what's the actual point in being a hard worker if your manager is never around, promotions are MIA and ultimately primarily given to those outside the USA? Or the fact that raises aren't even above inflation rates?

I love my job but cmon, I might as well do the bare minimum if promotions are essentially impossible to get and raises are laughable lol.


Are company and union still talking?

According to an email sent in December. They were set to talk this month. Did they? Are they still? I don't understand why the complete silence all the time by the company and the union. I can see why they wouldn't give specific details while negotiating but they could at least give us the most general description of the current situation, right?


Isn’t it funny how quiet it is about bonuses?

By this point we’re usually given at least a target or some directional guidance. Instead, nothing. Total silence. That’s not an accident, it’s deliberate. When leadership stops communicating, it’s usually because the message would land badly. Something’s clearly being set up behind the scenes, and employees are the ones being left in the dark yet again.
