Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

@pr my unit cried about a bootstrap ba ba ba

I’m guessing you’ve never asked for a skip level or sought out the council and fireside chats led by Bertunnchi? Lock in and twell! Realize there’s a target on your back and fire the f back!!!

Found the boomer. The “work harder and just pull yourself up by the boot straps” era is long gone.

su-k it up buttercup, this isnt a job for the weak or lazy. we all get the heat, its about managing it, thats what the successful has over the slobs who get hand outs. Tough all over , grow one or get out.

Well, both evaluations sound pretty appropriate as evidenced by your massive give-up plus cut & run idea.

Or, you could realize that NME isn't necessarily a reflection of your worth as a person, and your wife is probably cheating on you.

"Don't let yourself get attached to anything you can't walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner."

One of my all-time favorite quotes.

Cisco had no annual evaluations for te longest time I remember.

These are back!!! And the only reason is to level set employees vs Managers. Tells you who is the boss and to degrade employees. This SUC1KS!!!

26 years at Cisco,

In my 26 years at Cisco

if you still holding onto your csco options.. time to retire buddy...

I'm in the same boat on the work front. In my 26 years at Cisco, I have never EVER been told I need to work harder and faster, until 2 weeks ago, and yet I've never worked harder in my entire life.

seek your fav god. or Patel :-)

I’m right there with you buddy. Feeling “stuck” in both my personal and professional life right now.
