Birmingham office

Heard they closed the Birmingham office today. Su-ks for all the KC folks that have to go into the office 6 days a month. 🤣🤣🤣

1% raise

4% inflation rate in 2023 but somehow we should be glad for a 1% salary raise?

More Layoffs!

A load of more UK layoffs just before bonus and merit reviews! This time they are taking out people from the top. Senior directors who have been tapping people on the shoulder with an offer they can't refuse have now also been given their marching... — read more 

Firings.. no severance Quincy

After outsourcing so much work there is less for us so now they can claim low productivity and fire you after only a verbal warning.. NO SEVERANCE.

Another UK Wide System Outage...

Yet again, the RSA authenticor has suffered a catastrophic failure, leaving most of the UK unable to work. It seems to be a monthly occurrence now. Where is the testing of these changes before they are rolled out? Where are the rollback and... — read more

Why No WARN Notices

Most companies are required by law to file a WARN notice when employees are being laid off and it's material in nature - funny how SS&C doesn't really seem to do this process... inquiring legal minds want to know...

Quality standards a thing of the past

I wish clients could see what is happening internally. If a frontline worker is doing poorly we just hide their work from being seen or reported to the clients. It’s wild how much stuff we slide under the rug and not tell anyone. Management is... — read more

Everyday gets worse. Managers su-k.

No one cares about the morale of the team I’m on. Stretched thin, “get it done” attitude, and people constantly leaving. They can’t get anyone hired in at the rate people are leaving. A constant revolving door. Ugh I hate it. My team is getting so... — read more

The Work Number - Bad Data

Leaders in Technology lol

No one in the UK could logon Tuesday morning because they decided to switch from RSA to Microsoft MFA. Most critical people had to go in the office and there wasn't enough desks. The whole company is a joke!

Referral requests??

Emails going out to tell people to refer their friends and family SS&C is hiring! I'd love to know who hates their friends and family enough to ask them to apply. Those referral bonuses aren't enough to ruin relationships over.

Wonder what he thinks of Blue Prism Deal now...

Hmmm so is it coincidental that Billy Bob canceled the Town Hall meeting right after they started laying people off? I think not. I think that he needs to down a few more drinks before he can come up with a good lie to pass on to the remaining... — read more

They are training offshore to write correspondence, and are trying to force corr to take phonecalls. It seems like the AI is not so good at writing "easy" letters if they have quickly turned to offshore to write instead. I wonder how long before most... — read more
