Thread regarding Cengage layoffs

"It's possible that they are trying to get as many paychecks as they can before it's all over."

POSSIBLE? Dude, it's what they've been doing for twelve years, now!

@qg yup, that's why the layoffs are being implemented in batches throughout the year. I can't believe some people on my team still aren't acknowledging what's going on. It's possible that they are trying to get as many paychecks as they can before it's all over.

@qb lots of people are being used right now- so they can know just enough of what and how to do that job after they fire them.

@qa Partly correct.... I guess.
Barbwire was promoted to her role when ER moved to SVP/General Manager, so Barbwire was promoted to her current role by, ER and NK. But when she was first hired at Cengage it was KS and ER she followed here from Pearson.

MH - Hates her. she should be gone soon. Not sure what she has done to gold in this long, except SW is clueless and must need her guidance.

@q8 Barbwire bc she’s not an NK hire. Until all the non NK hires are gone he is safe as that’s his excuse is that these aren’t his people.

@q0 I see you are Still feeling a bit Salty.... FMLA is good but no need to take it right now. You may miss this Executive Team train wreck. The Executive Team can't hide the NUMBERS much longer, Can't wait to see them. Which person on the Executive Team will get the AXE? Somebody is leaving soon. Will it be NK - (MENOSELL) ? or Barbwire?

@a4 better idea is to take FMLA. 12 week vacation.

5% is what they said publicly.... increases have been much higher. Just ask Pookie and Ray-Ray

After years of falsely propping up the company with 5% prices hikes on every line item across the board - we are selling way less but let’s celebrate

KT in HR is proving the Theory to be spot on! She was hired by the Apollo team to babysit MH and NK. When she is present Mh and NK whole demeanor changes. You can tell they fear her or at least fear what she may tell the Apollo guys. She has their manhood in a tight grip.

I recall 2 years ago when NK told some of us privately that Apollo investment was very bad! for us Looks like he was spot on.

Everyone take a week of vacation in October and then take the 3 days before Thanksgiving. Get your requests in... That's what ambition looks like.
