#status

Seems like the organization design is mostly rolled out. It's been a long time waiting for many people, and a lot of the timelines took longer than expected. Seems to be a general reduction in roles, especially in North America, and a number of retirements. Thoughts on the status?

Is it just me, or does it seem to others as well that's what's happening here?

I am on the IT engineer/architect side of things at Conduent. Everything we do is 100% reactionary. No forethought. Everything is held together with duct tape and a prayer. The place is a joke. Stay far away from Conduent if you are looking for IT work.

I thought intel was making employees work from an office, no more remote work from home, other states, other countries?

Seems like the status quo to at the sites, did intel chicken out ?

What does “under secondary review” typically mean. Will it just sit there until it inevitably goes away, or does that status actually mean something in Philips 66 hiring process. Thanks for any insight!

Face it everyone - HP does not have much of a future. It's a dinosaur company, nowhere near cutting edge, its recent announced products are neither inventive nor impressive, and the company is just treading water. Boise is dead and will be completely gone by end of 2027. HQ is a tomb. And CWs continue to get annual unpaid "furloughs".

HP's future is bleak.

Are we doing okay with the Lithium business? I heard we had some our best people working it…Curious to know the status and outlook vs Upstream.

I just read Mind over Grind by Guy Winch… he tries to explain whats happening in our heads when laid off- goes over Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and that losing our job costs us security, social structure, status, accomplishment, as well as a sense of our identity.

Helped me understand that its not just a job

So is it officially gone or what? I’d rather be told it’s discontinued than be told it’s still waiting for approval.

Believe I read that we have/had 40 projects in the pipeline. Any idea of the status and if any have been implemented? Looked at the Verizon board yesterday and the blood bath was scary. Will those projects cause the same thing here or will we continue with the slower Chinese water torture.

Today is not the day to post BS. Please try to keep comments professional and factual.

Ok instead of having staff constantly look over their shoulder and wonder if they’ll be a RIF casualty, why not send out periodic emails to keep employees in the loop? Heck we got daily emails when COVID struck. If not they shouldn’t have mentioned 11/20 in the first place…I mean it’s good in the sense it gives us time to update our resume but it also stirs up fear and paranoia for several weeks.

The cloud migration program under AC, reporting to CIO, has shown limited tangible progress so far. Existing platform teams continue to maintain operational stability, while AC focuses on expanding his leadership circle and hiring new personnel.

Most of AC’s direct reports come from program or product management backgrounds, including several former Amazon leaders, with limited technical depth. A new principal engineer was recently hired, while experienced principal engineers were laid off, raising concerns about continuity and technical leadership.

Overall, the program’s measurable outcomes and strategic clarity remain uncertain.

Just adding to the fun

Has anyone heard when they plan to make an announcement about the status of the site?

Finance town hall cancelled. Hard to be optimistic. Should we expect anymore RIFS in finance? Especially with new VP finance transformation.

More or less of a dumpster fire now compared to twelve months ago? 🗑️ 🔥

I have been a remote worker for many years. My classification today shows I have been changed to an on-site employee working at a Wells Fargo advisors building which I was told was never an option for me to work at. Are things changing? And why didn’t they tell me this? Note: There are no hubs or branches in my state.
