Thread regarding AIG (American Intl Group Inc.) layoffs

Yeah, I'm complaining...lol
At first we are discouraged and even reprimanded by management for using resources (offered to us) to help make us more well rounded...now these same managers talk about LinkedIn learning as if it's some new thing that everybody needs to get on board with...what a joke. Half these managers only have 1 thing in their newly created LinkedIn account; their employment at AIG lol.

You expect me to take any of this seriously? Most of my peers and I HAVE BEEN on LinkedIn and HAVE BEEN using LinkedIn learning, which I'm sure made a lot of people at AIG feel insecure..and now that it's a new initiative they feel cool talking about it?

2. t.w I love LinkedIn learning but, for many of the technical courses on there, it won't do someone any good unless they already have a strong foundation in what the course is teaching.

Yes agree Post ID: @10oONG0Z-2oom . I think this is sad because it's the working employees that need to go to conferences, not management. And when management attend these conferences, they really don't share at all or if they do it's a small amount of what they learned. They empower themselves not the employees.

Linked in Learning is HUGE! Take advantage of the free professional development offered to you.

I tell you, some people will complain about EVERYTHING! (Insert huge eye roll)

Most of the technical courses are outdated. Our middle management banned us from taking outside courses or going to conferences because of costs ....yet he attends conferences all the time...
