I am starting to see LinkedIn posts of people from Comcast stating their position was eliminated this week or laid off today..
curious what folks are seeing in their network of impacted roles being reduced.
I saw an Exec Dir from Learning and Development team
@b3 you sound like a corp stooge
@bm its still early give it time, 2-3 years since CIEC launch a cut is 100% coming this year or next year
@a4 nothing of substance that can’t be done cheaper or by AI. they put out the same boring mandatory training every year and offer the same courses you can find online for free. no reason comcast should be employing them
good they had a useless role. they needed to go
Nothing in IT or Tech/software engineering yet.
Please remember that people losing their jobs are reading these comments too. Saying they’ve “done nothing” or “brought no value” is the opposite of what this forum should be about. We’re here to support employees and give them a place to talk about what’s happening. These are human beings with families, loved ones, bills, and lives that are being turned upside down. We can question leadership and business decisions without tearing down the people affected.
So the xchange program is gonna su-k even more now?
Same here I saw 20 of them today alone.
@b3 of course no one other than yourself does anything of value.
@aa so nothing of value
Hang in there everyone. Going to be a bumpy ride.
@a4 if you've ever gone through a new hire program, taken integrity training, upskilled for a new position, tool, or product launch, taken any courses for career advancement, attended Comcast Development Day, Knowledgefest, or Leaderfest, used the walkme features on Comcastnow or workday to upskill on navigation or features...the list goes on. Basically. When the company releases goals or initiatives, L&D ensure that employees are equipped with the skills to reach those goals.
There’s a post from earlier talking about it- looks like it started with Talent and HR (l&d is part of that org) so imagine it will continue
Not meant to be critical, but what does L&D even do?
I saw a Sr Manager from HR and a data analyst both post a layoff post on LinkedIn today
