Are people really in the office 5 days a week or is there flexibility/WFH allowed?

Will the EPMO go remote?

From a meeting today

• if you are WFM you won't be able to move internally. All new roles are in office.

The unsaid part is also if you are WFM expect to be treated differently from now on. Less or No promotions, more scrutinized, first on the downsizing list. I think its safe to say Quiet Layoffs are in full effect. The playbook is done at every company that has done return to office.

This is by far HCSC’s biggest and ugliest April fools day joke ever! They already had the list of employees they were sending home. Just send that sh*tty email to them and leave the rest of us alone in peace. Thanks for caring about your employees!

All sr managers in my org got let go this week, and I bet we are next. Anyone else get told to work form home next week?

What departments are having to work from home next week????? Very sus last minute change….. other departments were on the same boat when they were let go.. right????

As the Alphabet soup continues to do mini layoffs to avoid UK government thresholds.

Looks like they will pick out people that work remotely, going as far to include peeps working 2 days a week from home.

I hesitate to complain about WFH when other offices don’t have it. But when are we “rotating” the WFH days in BH?

Oil crisis, WFH should be considered

$200 a barrel if we don’t act fast and use up our reserves which may be needed for war.

For people selected? Or there's something more nefarious hiding behind it? I really hope they'll eventually explain what it's all about.

I heard hidden ridge/Irving will remain open and 400 International/Richardson will close. People can decide to move to hidden ridge or WFH

So about 12-13 years ago I told everyone I was the bridge to something else. I told you we had the best claims workforce in the industry, without exception, but the cost of this was too expensive and we didn't need to be that good, but just good enough. I told everyone the days of working at SF for 35 years and retiring was over. I told you most people will never finish their careers at SF and it will just be a place for you to get some work experience and move on to something else. I told you to stop questioning decisions because the people that designed the future state model are much smarter than you. I conned everyone to move to a Hub City or long term growth facility just to turn around and close more offices. I told you our systems could never support a WFH workforce and oops we did it in a matter of days. I artificially lowered rates, bought tons of horrible policies and proceed to loose $27 billion in two years. I then gave myself record bonuses of $20 million and $24 million, the highest of any CEO in America. I cried a lot telling you I had to prove my business model worked and completely trashed the company before I retired. I effectively replaced the entire workforce with burger flippers and the 2040 crew. To cover my tracks and all the horrible things I did, I just "good ole boy'd it" and hired my long time buddy to finish the destruction. You miss me yet? It only get's better from here! Dang it hold on...my secretary if pregnant again....

Anyone else under Prigg hearing rumor's about going back into the office? I honestly dont care, however majority of my team is freaking out. ( as some have moved states away ) Heard managers have to, and then techs in the NOC 2/3 days a week

So that’s why they have that stupid new goal about being present in office or some garbage.

Man, what about those of us that take long and frequent bathroom break because we are old and have fiber and bladder problems??? Every trip to p-e takes over 10 minutes to walk back and forth, and it takes a long time to empty it out because it drops so slowly as a 60 years old.

I am so glad I am retiring this year. I feel horrible for the young folks and all the folks that were hired as WFH and took a lower salary, now have to spend money to commute

Is it only Maurice that gets a yes?

Need to backfill a role? We get no.
Need funding for a broken process? We get no.
Need funding to improve a process or build a client request? We get no.
Want to promote a hard worker? We get no.
Want to give money to a deserving employee? We get no.

Culture? No. WFH? No. PTO parity? No

I guess old Mo is the only one who gets a yes.

Please say we at least get the WFH next week this Friday, it’s time to be done.

Several countries have already run out of gas. Gas will soon be $10 a gallon if you can get it. Mandatory gas rationing coming. WFH will return sooon.

Gas prices are going insane. We're wasting valuable oil going back and forth to the office. We did it during covid, same thing should be done now.

They're just je-king us around, aren't they? Maybe they'll tie it to a gas price threshold - check the pump each morning, find out if you're driving in. Next-gen attrition tactics!

It looks like it will be in April. We'll also see what the announced third-quarter results look like, which will say a lot about the scale. I think the Senior LT already knows exactly when and how much layoffs will occur. I hope they reform the FTS properly, because the current structure and management are a disaster and a flight without a pilot.

If you thought COVID was bad, that's nothing compared to the energy lockdowns now being pushed. The International Energy Agency now wants "alternating license plat restrictions" (among other things), where you're not allowed to be on the roads on certain days.

They also want to reduce all road speed limits everywhere, so that traveling by road is increasingly suffocating and slow.

Back to WFH for all the complainers, another L for the bootlickers and “leadership” who stay steady losing.

If you want to spend more of your time chilling at home and spending time with your cats, why did you apply to TIAA in the first place?

The 3 days rule has in place for years..they only started to enforce it for real recently.

Denmark is encouraging people to stay home and use less gas. Hmm...

Novel idea. Be green.

RtO can GTH!

Riddle me this:

Will Fiserv ever have the brains to permit WFH with exorbitant fuel costs that are imminent?

Seriously, we were able to work 2.5 years from home with little issue. For those of us who live further away from the office and still drive in, the cost of commuting makes zero sense during these uncertain times.

I'm hearing all Tech will wfh next week, I'm hearing about a 'tsunami of layoffs', I'm hearing of mass debandings, I'm hearing about layoff percentages I don't even want to repeat.

But it's all rumors.

What do you KNOW FOR A FACT?

To Control gas prices & save the our reserves, Should WFH allowed until war ends?

SG, the WFH champion, is moving onto Wal Mart. Is it because something will be coming down soon? Bonuses usually coming at the end of March...is that not happening? Merit increase this year? How about the engagement survey that usually surfaces in April/May. Will that be put on hold? More layoffs? OR was she just able to take an opportunity with a better company that offers a fully remote role?

Watching the replay … Based on what I gathered from Alfonso, It is up to me which model I follow - Hybrid, In Office, WFH. “ think as adults, its a personal choice”

EH YOU ARE KI-LING US WITH DRIVING TO THE OFFICE FOR CR-PPY FOOD AND ANNOYING &LOSER LEADERS. WANT TO BOOST ENERGY, LET US WFH UNTIL GAS IS UNDER $3

If you are searching LinkedIn during your meetings, dont worry, you are not alone. WF has partnered with LinkedIn to promote premium subscriptions by creating a toxic "am I next" workplace.

Curious what others are thinking about work arrangements lately, especially after the layoffs. I know the firm prefers having people in the office so there’s more oversight, but as a parent of young kids I’d personally be very open to working from home again, even if it meant taking a meaningful pay cut (like 10-25% less)

For me, the time and cost savings alone would be huge (commute, gas, parking, getting ready, lunches, etc), and I honestly find I focus better at home. Most of my day is on Zoom calls anyway, and sometimes taking those in the office is actually more distracting with background noise.

It would also be nice to have a consistent desk setup rather than rotating spaces, especially since our team area doesn’t always have room for everyone at once.

Just curious how others feel about it. Would you consider something like that if it were an option?

Looks like all hybrid workers are going back into the office quarter by quarter. Next will be telecommuters.

The President can start a war from his resort club and talk to his year in his home.

There is no reason why we need to go the office

I am following the president lead by working from home

Someone recently commented here they were hearing some orgs might be going from office to fully remote. Any more details?

I am supporting a team member with an accommodation to WFH due to a chronic illness. The likely balance will 50 percent in office and 50 percent at home. Totally genuine health condition, superb employee. In all seriousness, will this impact their job security?
All 'what job security ' type jokes not required.

From what I see, people are more productive, more responsive, and putting in more hours. Why would any company want to give that up?

Does Fannie Mae allow wfh if you live around NOVA region?

Does WF make special accommodation for this? Just curious! Not a Muslim.

Bny at it again today. Targeting wfh staff again. Whose teams got clipped this time?
