This leadership should go back to school. They are failing on the most basic issues. It has been proven over and over again that happy employees are more productive and if you treat your workers well it will pay off. But it seems nobody let our management know that since they keep treating us like cr-p. There'll be no improvement in results before the treatment of employees improves, mark my words.

Thank you for your service and as a former airman, leave. You'll be happier. Change your MOS though...
We all sit and act like management is a group of 50IQ children who are given power beyond their capabilities. No one ever thinks that things are going exactly as they want however.
I firmly believe the higher ups have a number of claim handler employees they want to retain, that number is significantly lower than the current staff.
So if you are smart, how do you solve the problem? Well you make life suck for the claim handler, let attrition be the cheap way out, no bad PR on layoffs of office closures. He-l with WFH they finally figured out how to stop the negative blowback on closing LOC's that they experienced in the past by keeping them WFH after the closure then finding new ways to get them out.
I look at this all as, they dont want happy employees, they simply want less of them. So why not keep people ok with piling on cr-p and poor working conditions and people who really are just happy to have a job? Seems to be the exact game plan im seeing here.
Remember this is a metric based company. Staffing is a metric. Obviously it was ok for the staffing metrics to get low enough to cause company wide issues. You realize how important staffing is for a company this size, and for it to be ok to go a year with no new hires, while we added policies by buying another company for the first time ever, to retain #1 artificially for a short time? No this is part of the plan.
The real issue is the dishonesty to their claims employees, who dont yet realize the career company is over. Just wait until their transformation plan is unveiled later this year. Just wait until you see what your new job will be moving forward. Anyone with the ability to leave will be gone within the next two years im certain of it.
Lol “kids today” yes man because we all grew up with managers as parents…
As a veteran I can honestly say 4 years of school was a huge waste of time for tech, it wasn’t anything you couldn’t teach yourself after getting your toes in the water.
People are more in awe with a piece of paper, rather than your morals and skills you naturally have as a human.
I’ve met plenty of management here with less morals than some people I’ve met being an 11B.
I’ve been toying the idea with re-enlisting if my next interview falls through. That says something.
The kids of today are a direct result of the parents of yesterday. In other words, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. They were indoctrinated and now their in leadership. What do you expect. Indoctrinators are trying to indoctrinated and it ain't happening.
