Just got laid off this morning. Clearly this company values AI slop and outsourcing over anything remotely close to actually adhering to policy or making sure devs can actually get anything done. Only thing I'll miss is the money... and even then it's clear that was running out too thanks to the obscene (yet expected) greed of the Ivory Tower.
I guess they're not even doing waves of WFRs anymore. They probably play darts with names on the board every morning. Get out while you can.
@1qv Too bad the Verint tool is unreliable. Many circumstances where it thinks you are idle when you aren't.
@CO - They are using Verint tool to WFR. Anything less than 70% gets their name on a list.
@aw I had to specifically request a copy. They hired 6 people to replace me and they are failing miserably
Lets not document actual procedures or give out projects with no base information, Lets let AI do all the work. This company needs a complete reset.
@n6 All states. Gainwell is constantly laying off. Have you been living under a rock?
What state?
Gainwell only cares about cutting cost for individual performers. They contine to hire director level and above with no purpose. Leaders have no conscience and only care about their windfalls and equity. These leaders would crawl over each other to get ahead. Hire more offshore contractors . Lie, cheat and steal. Wow, that was alot 😳 .
You are so much better off to be rid of Gainwell. It might be tough for a bit until you land a job. But any reasonable person should steer clear of Gainwell.
@av It depends on the context. Bigger picture; company-wide? I'm not surprised this company is throwing everyone to the wolves so that the fraudsters and their sycophants at the top can enrich themselves. Relative to my team? Very curious how exactly they intend to meet deadlines due at the end of the year by thinning our numbers. If anything, given how I know things go with my team and the customer, it could very well doom our contract and put everyone out of a job. We dodged being outsourced to Tech Mahindra earlier this year because of the data we handle, so I was at least expecting to not be in the crosshairs for a WFR until at least next year when all that company debt is due.
@aw I only have the digital stuff they sent me this morning. Not seeing anything about who got let go. If it shows up in whatever comes through the mail, I'll put that here.
Look at your packet. Somewhere it lists generic descriptions of who got let go in this round. Mine did…a while ago, not this round.
@OP just curious. Were you expecting it or totally surprised?
Me too today
