Sometimes it turns out that layoff is not a bad thing. I personally think for many here a layoff would give them a much needed kick to get out of this misery. One should always look on the positive side as well. Given recent developments, the... — read more
Stock price down 25%
Stock crashed 25% after Q1 earnings when ELT was trying to get it up. What could this mean? More layoffs?
How much do you care to keep this job?
Everyone is saying that it has become unbearable to work here, and at the same time, they are still giving it their best. I know people who hate working here and yet are among the hardest workers. If it's so bad here, isn't it better to focus more... — read more
No high hopes
Apart from the people who are here only until they find something better, only those who still believe and hope that something will get better remain at NCR. I listened in disbelief to my colleague the other day who is convinced that everything... — read more
Micro micro managers
They have to find a way to be right Even when they are wrong Fu-k productivity and the client. Micro managers have to be made ok. They put you between the interest of the client and their ego What’s the natural progression and why is any one... — read more
Expectations are unrealistic
Their expectations of employees are unrealistically high. Management tries to convince us that nothing we do is enough, even though most of us do double workloads. NCR acts like it’s the only gig in town and the only place where we can work. I am... — read more
Did ELT really use all the ideas from a contest entry but pick some one else as the winner?
Did I see that and hear that right? The girl who got the most views and likes, did not win. and then, her ideas are now being used (certificate programs) and her comments are being specifically responded to (meritocracy and Andy singing about 800... — read more
Fun Thursday’s are not enough to keep morale high
I see all these smiley faces at fun Thursday’s acting all happy but little do they know they are next in line to be laid off. NCR does not care how good you are at your job i repeat Ncr does not care about performance it’s all about finding your... — read more
More layoffs happening April 1st
They (manager) were given a choice: leave or get cut. And nothing to do with their performance - their role is being sent overseas.
What would real leaders do?
I think it is wrong to call those at the top "leadership". Because, we all know what a real "leader" is and what the characteristics of real leadership are. NCR, in that sense, doesn't have a real leadership. Sometimes I try imagine what real... — read more
NCR is the most toxic company I've worked for in my 20+ working years
The company culture is toxic and it breeds toxic managers and even toxic employees. My one piece of advice for those who are considering joining NCR is this: STAY AWAY.
Bye NCR I wish I could say it's been good.
I just accepted an offer!
The hardest thing about leaving is getting there mentally
It's become very clear to me that the hardest part about leaving NCR is doing so mentally, deciding to leave, that's the tricky part. Once a person overcomes that mental block, finding a new job is not very difficult, is it? It took me a month to... — read more
When do you expect next layoffs?
What if we hit another recession in a month or so. If oil continues to be expensive we'll have a recession, we always do.
I regret applying here
I finally gave notice. NCR is just a waste of time. From this perspective, working here should be considered as an option only if there is no other. Now I'm trying to remember the reason why I thought this was a good place to work. I probably had... — read more
Was Mike bullying Patrice on the last webcast?
It seemed like she hurt his feelings when she said he was a difficult boss and then he started being very passive aggressive to her. Maybe I was imagining it but some weird energy up there for sure
It is difficult to regain motivation
I have no motivation to work here at all. I'm only here because I still haven't gotten a new job. How do they even expect employees to stay motivated to work? No one believes their false promises anymore. I wish I had some motivation, it would be... — read more
Not everything is bad news
If we have to close our offices in Eastern Europe (not just Russia, who knows how things with Serbia will play out in the long run) maybe the management will realize that it's not as profitable as they thought to outsource so much work. I might be... — read more
NCR & Russia
NCR donated funds to UNICEF and that's a good start but when will they join the pool of multinational companies that have severed ties and pulled out of Russia ? NCR maintains 2 offices in Russia.
How it's decided who to lay off
Was RIF'ed in 2018 after 44 years. Managers never know, they have zero input to the process. Decision made at EVP level. They call HR for list of names over 40 years old and more than 15 years of service. Then check to see if they are part of the old... — read more
Performance
It is no longer clear to me why I made the effort to have a good performance. It seems to me more and more that neither hard work nor performance means anything at NCR. I no longer think it’s crucial when it comes to layoffs? Those who put in... — read more
Merit increases in Serbia and US layoffs coincidence?
Heard they are doing merit increases in serbia becz employees started leaving in numbers and were finding better pay elsewhere. This is being offset by laying off US based employees. 1 US employee equals 3 in serbia.
Serbia supports Russia.
Serbia refuses to sanction or support sanctions against Russia. They enjoy a cozy relationship with Russia and Vladimir Putin. Google it. You picked a great partner NCR.
RIF List
Can anyone in a managerial position please let me know if they had any input on who from the team gets rifd? How long before are manager notified?
US based Layoffs
If layoffs continue at this pace soon there will be no US based employees left to call back into the office. Laying off One US employee gets you 3 in Serbia and not to forget new college grads. Whenever a new batch comes in it is followed off by a... — read more
Gone as soon as the bonus check hits my bank account
Already have several offers.
Classic NCR move…Do a mass layoff before paying out bonuses. How Does this company not get into trouble for this?
I am hearing severance offered was just 2 weeks this time as opposed to 12 weeks.
Bill and Dennis
Bill and Dennis had their puppet pets strolling around taking attendance in the office today. They must think people are stupid, we know what they're doing. Morale is at an all time low in this company.
TIME TO GO Bye Bye Mullet Boy
Expecting loyalty from the Hayford regime of NCR is like expecting loyalty from a rabid dog. Eventually it will turn on you. fairness has never been a virtue of NCR. Policies are wishy washy for a reason and that's so stupidvisors can bend the... — read more
It would be great to get the package and leave
I'm sick and tired of this company. Ever since I started working here I feel like I am no longer the same person I used to be. Constantly some pressure, stress and misery. So now I don't think it would be so bad to get layoff here. Does anyone know... — read more
Employees overseas
Many jobs are being sent to Serbia. I’d love to know if their experiences with NCR are similar to mine here in America, that is, I wonder what employees overseas think of this company. Surely they don’t think much of it either, no matter how... — read more
How have pi-s poor leaders like Vancuren and Ferguson been able to survive ?
With their HR records and skeletons in their closets, poor decisions that cost the company big money they should have departed last year. I guess the good ole boys club survives for now so they can keep taking care of their Dayton buddies. How do... — read more
Layoffs Happening Jan 10
I have heard they are doing a round on Monday. Have not heard what the severance will be.
Stop worrying about layoffs and do something proactive
You gain nothing from worrying about something you can't change. Instead, start working on a plan in case you're laid off. This company certainly doesn't care about you or your best interest, so it's on you to make sure your future is not fu---d up... — read more
Waiting
God, I sure hope I get laid off this sh-t job soon. Hoping for a lay off but I may have to quit.
No November layoffs this year?
A lot of people were guessing and posting dates, but I don't know that any layoffs happened this month. Considering that it's past Thanksgiving and the end of the month is here, does it mean that we have managed to avoid the dreaded November layoffs... — read more
