How did Data&AI fare in yesterday's layoffs?
I know Jeff was swinging the axe yesterday and some poor 400 souls got hit sadly. The real question on my mind is did he completely obliterate the Data&AI group or are they still around. I know a director was let go in January/February. I'm just... — read more
I "survived" the cuts
I'm one of the unlucky ones who's still employed by this trash company. I'm now going to have to do the work of 4 people, and I'm already DROWNING. In our dept meeting they kept saying we'll still meet our deadlines and learn how to "do more with... — read more
Two teammates impacted
I don't know if I should feel lucky to still have a job or unlucky that they got paid to leave and my job is about to become much harder with added work.
Are they removing comments and post here?
I'm noticing missing comments and post lately. Why is there censorship going on here?
What does the severance look like?
If anyone's okay sharing. Thanks.
Where's the money going
DT is funneling free cash flow to build their AI center with Nvidia. Watch for bigger changes by Q3, cuz there's not much more cuts to be made at this point.
3/24 impacts

3/24
Any clarity what to expect tomorrow??

Let me get to the point - Sprint is cancer and everything Sprint touched gets in deep troubles, just ask Nextel and Clearwire!
MICRO Layoffs?

How to ask for package
My mental health has taken a nose dive by working at this company and weirdly I wasn’t included in the recent round of MIX layoffs and I actually was hoping that I would be. I’m talking to a psychiatrist about FMLA at some point for mental health and... — read more
I'm now hoping to be laid off
Things were okay until about six months ago, when a new manager showed up and everything shifted. He has clear favorites, people he protects no matter what, while the rest of us get nothing but criticism and constant pressure. The atmosphere has... — read more
Is April five day RTO?
I’m hearing mixed messages. Does y’all have the facts?
This site use to be pretty useful…..
But am blown away at the number of id--ts, racists and trolls that are posting and commenting. It use to be 80% informative and 20% id--ts, racists and trolls. Those numbers have flipped since lads summer. Maybe it’s just the TMO page? Maybe... — read more

An unexpected 1:1
First time this has happened, in the middle of the week. Is this something to be concerned over, considering there are no active layoffs currently?
Has TMO switched over to Claude yet?
Last I left in August, you guys were still using ChatGPT or just getting started. Has there been a Switch to Claude Code yet?
It should be a requirement in TFB...

Customer Service Appreciation Week
Pattern recognition exists. Why have a random CSAW right before every 'reorg'?
Advice
If you're likely to get laid off, just cut back to the minimum that you have to do. No need to put in the effort!
Which org is getting hit on 3/3?
Hearing that Jeff’s org is going to get hit Tomorrow. Did anyone start getting 15 mins invite? If yes, then which VP under Jeff Simon?
Anyone else watching their CEC get sundowned but keep their head down and off the radar?
I’m just saying. I can’t be the only one.

How are things in the Dunwoody/Ravinia office these days?
My old coworkers are pretending I don't exist or scared to be laid off, so I'm asking for news here. How is Jeff's/Blanchard's group doing there. Have all the former Ronke folks left?
