In the last 48 hrs this board went from people sharing and looking for real info to remote vs. office and sales vs. ops. Meanwhile leadership is reading this over drinks at the Four Seasons with McKinsey, laughing.
We argue over BS while they make their moves.
Pathetic
@a7, there's really no best way to lay folks off. It they did announcements like last year with the divisions, had everyone on one call and said everybody's impacted and we'll give details within the next month, people would still be upset. It wouldn't matter if the ripped the bandaid off or drain the pipe slowly. Its a layoff. People are anxious regardless of when they find out because rumors feed the fear months before anything takes place.
Difficult to do when the offshored CIEC employees are openly mocking Americans for the layoffs, gloating that their teams are expanding:

There was some dude on here like 2 days ago suggesting that execs cut people based on their git commit history. That's when I started noticing people saying "let the hunger games begin". Which really isn't cool - I think there would be way less panic if the company were open about what's happening rather than us waiting our turn.
I agree. There are a few trolls here no doubt, but there’s also a lot of anger, sadness and fear that is making people distracted. It is us and them. Let’s not fight among each other and remain focused on who is really to blame and support one another through this challenging period
Bars.
Amen
