All we're doing is guessing and people are getting more and more stressed. True leadership would tell employees what's going on if nothing else to stop rumors from escalating and creating panic. Sadly, who we have in top management are as far away from true leadership as they can be.

Well, you're not going to get the transparency you desire. Everyone is in "wait and see" mode now, including lower level management. Just have to wait it out at this point. My bet is that information will start flowing next week (backing into 10/22 date - Comcast earnings report call).
@b2 who?
@b0 LinkedIn has been showing a few leaving senior positions. Hmmm.
@b0 yup, I'm aware. Our dept leadership mentioned that too. This "transformation" they call it to be more agile and increase accountability and decision-making.
@at the cfo posted on LinkedIn that structure is coming that fueled alot of this panic
@as they could stop beating around the bush and be frank and tell us yes a restructuring is coming. And tell us yes there will be impacts. Regardless I've touched up my resume and have been applying. Can't guarantee they won't deviate from previous severance packages with this large of an impact. They've got the whole company on high anxiety from execs down to entry-levelers. Angelakis made a comment after YourVoice saying that the future is bright and he needs talent to make it happen when comments expressed job security. Obv that seems to be very misleading.
@OP just asking but what can they really tell us yet (if we are referring to layoffs or re orgs or restructuring?)
I have also found that things change so quickly. Until its official, things get changed all the time at the last minute. It happens.
Im not sure i want to know if im on the list until its final. That would scare me even more. If im told im not on the layoff list and then last minute get blind sided after feeling relieved.
I hate that we have no job security right now but I dont know what concrete info they could provide me right now that would actually make me feel better and be true and accurate to the end just yet.
This seems to be more of an observation than new information. It’s been mentioned throughout several existing threads already, so I’m not sure it really needed a separate post.
