Always look after yourself and your interests
If you don't do it, no one else will. That means, never stop looking for other opportunities. Managers here will overload you with work because they don't care whether it is realistic for one person to do the work that should be done by several... — read more

It is very noticeable that they've cut the best
My team was significantly affected in previous layoffs. I was surprised whom they chose to cut. Any reputable organization would try to retain such people. Now it's already become very noticeable that some of the best people were laid off. It... — read more
Old place, old problems ... same issues
When will the folks that have sweated and toiled for so many years at this place realize that it is not for them, but for management? The goals of a business never changes, CCB is always pulling up the rest, and the few are empowered not the many... — read more
More layoffs to come?
I can't relax and be productive because I constantly have the feeling that more cuts are coming. Perhaps I worry too much. I don't have any information, I'm just here to ask if maybe someone has some new insights about cuts?
Earnings report
Things are much better than expected. We beat estimates, revenue is significantly higher than predicted ($33.49 billion vs. $32.1 billion), and the stock followed suit and is up 2.6 percent. Shouldn't this mean that we're done with layoffs, at least... — read more

What happened
The bottom line is to make the manager look good

Is it true that now they are cutting even some of the stellar performers?
That's what I heard. I'm not really surprised, but if they cut some of the best employees, morale will soon be non-existent.

HLA and HLS
Any word on what is happening with field folks? I know all field has a meeting Oct 3.
Which departments are the safest?
There is very little transparency, as usual. I hate that this is way I have to inquire about what is happening, which locations and which departments are affected. I only know that my motivation to continue working here has never been this low.
