They are telling us. Be patient. Everyone will know this week.
@ah Stop, it is absolutely not true that all leaders are lying. I'm a leader and I haven't heard anything other than what's on here and linkedin posts. I'm sure some know, but most really don't, so stop making assertions like that, people are going through enough without you adding to it.
I've been through restructures, breakups, and layoffs at other companies. They're never easy, but I've never seen one handled like this. From the day the split was announced, it's been nothing but surprise, suspense, and mystery about the future. No plans articulated, no thoughtful communication or even any visible/available executives to “rally the troops” or assuage concerns. That silence says everything. This company feels lost and without a mission. This is likely the first of several cleanups to dress the company up for a deal, with no strategy beyond a sale. Nobody should be counting on a stable future here.
I know of at least one Manager that has given the new to 2 employees in my department and when i question him he says he doesn't know anything. Just know most of them are sworn to secrecy for whatever reason and are absolutely full of sh-t... just know that most of the leadership ACTUALLY knows what is going on and is lying to your face because they are scared of the backlash.
I feel like fu--ing crashing out and I don't know what to do.
It's like a literal axe sitting above my head and I don't know if it's going to fall.
If it doesn't fall this time, it might fall next time or the next next time.
This entire situation is absolutely asinine. Everyone is in the dark and no-one knows anything.
Welcome to Comcast corporation, where you are just an inconvenient number. They truly do not care.
Most likely because there is more to be gained by being completely opaque.
It feels impossible to focus and get any work done today with this dread hanging over me
because they're inconsiderate clowns is why
