Have folks forgot, Ads already went out of business
They were sold to Publicis2019 this year.
Why would they have any allegiance to you?
That French company will continue to outsource because it's on their side of the ocean.
So all the big wings already took your $ when they sold ads to Publicis this year. Right now you're just wasting time there. Only benefit is a check but they will outsource you. They're already gearing up.

Well to the person that says they expect a check
Then dont use your company sponsored health insurance, if all you expect from a company is a check
Wow unbelievable
Omg. There's a saying at ADS that if you're breathing, you're hired. So true.
I can tell some of you come from very low beginnings they wanted to hire folks like that.
Folks that have no clue what goes down when a company makes 4 billion by selling their arm this year.
What a stock option plan is.
They think like is about a paycheck and that's the kind of folk they hired. Kids that are barely 18.
I perfectly see why they hired you mr or miss caps. YES IT ID CORPORATE OBLIGATION MORALLY TO GIVE IF THEY MADE 4 BILLION CASH
sorry caps will not save your job nor pretending that you like it there.
That company sells nothing but late fees to compromised people. #facts
OMG. DOES ANYONE HERE UNDERSTAND WHAT "PUBLICALLY OWNED" MEANS? YOU HAVE TO BUY SHARES. YOU...HAVE...TO..BUY..SHARES. YES, WE ARE TRADED ON THE NYSE, TIC ADS. BUT IF YOU HAVEN'T BOUGHT SHARES, THEY OWE YOU NOTHING. I AM NOT IN MANAGMENT. I AM JUST A PEON. I THINK ADS IS GONE. BUT JFC, FIGURE IT OUT. THEY OWE YOU NOTHING OTHER THAN HOURS WORKED. AND, I'M ON YOUR SIDE, SOON TO LOSE MY JOB. JFC, FIGURE IT OUT.
What financial difficulty?
Ads made 4 billion cash alone from the sale of epsilon
Many many companies folks have a standard to give their employees kick back when they sell things of that magnitude to say
Hey thanks
Dont believe that brainwashing Stockholm. SYNDROME garbage talk like ads is great.
They s uck!!!!
Those "forward thinking companys" will just as quickly sell you up the river if they experience financial difficulties of this magnitude. Ideas and philosophies dont count for sh– when its time to pay the bills.
Sorry its 2020 and many fast forward thinking companies view their employees as stakeholders and shareholders and even give them stock incentives when such transactions are made such as making 4 billion in cash, selling their aka arm epsilon this year to publicis a French company
Where did the money go ?
Employees invest their time into the success of this belief that they are human and they mean nothing to these greaseballs.
Make sure the folks that dont like benefits do not receive no unemployment no severance since they hate benefits and welfare and all
I don't think you know what publicly traded means. It doesn't mean that it belongs to everybody. It means that anyone who wants to can buy stock in it and become a shareholder. If you do that then you can benefit from their success or lose your investment if they struggle.
Being an employee doesn't make you a shareholder, if you want to be a shareholder go buy some shares of stock. You seem to think that just because you worked for a company they owe you a piece of their profits when the only money they owe you is the salary or hourly wage you agreed to when you were hired.
everyone who owns shares company
No employees no owners.
Its publicly traded so its everyone's company
Garbage
Pure corruption
Then say they're going to do buybacks aka
Pay ur friend and get even more money
Economics 101
No employees = no company
Why should card services get that 4 Billion? They did not own epsilon. Alliance Data Corporate owned epsilon, Card Services has as much of a claim to that money as Loyalty One.
Read the articles about investors long term concerns for Alliance Data. They are high debt and high operating cost.
From Evil Leadership
Where again did the 4 billion cash go ?
Thenthey hired particular employees that wouldn't have a clue of their shams.
Brainwashable employees but some are smarter than that. Chris
Entitlement are these executives somehow expecting 2 million xmas bonus while they are firing folks during holiday season
Then starting those folk were underperformed anyhow. Meanwhile those very loyal folks enabled them to sell epsilon for 4 billion cash 2019
Where did the $$$$ go??
Yes employees are shareholders.
They invest their time into that sham.
Talk about brainwashing
Employees are the company nothing less and many employers see them as such and treat them as shareholders except for alliance =their demise.
Employees are a companies best asset
AS FOR BONUS SURELY WITH 4 BILLIPN CASH sale 2019 they could give a damn Turkey to folk at the least.
Just complete scam all the way around
If you do not own the company why would you expect anything from a sale? The entitlement is so real! Employees don't get anything? We get paid to do a job.
Bonus checks were given out when the company was flourishing and there was extra cash to go around. To expect a bonus 1 month after many colleagues had to be laid off... ENTITLEMENT.
I accepted my job offer for the pay that was listed on it, as did everyone else. No where on it was a bonus mentioned.
Why should we get a bonus when the company didn't meet the numbers.... We haven't got our numbers for multiple years. ( Apparently I am evil and leadership... ARGH).
To reduce corporate debt and to buy stock buy backs?
In layman terms that means; pay your friends back and see ur own stock go up
That's what buy backs means.
MEANWHILE THE EMPLOYEES GET NOTHING
AS THEY slave
How corporate debt? Why the stock was higher than Google. Over $300
The lies. The corruption. Unbelievable
The proceeds from the sale went to paying down corporate debt and also buying back outstanding stock... This was presented on the earnings calls
Unprecedented they received 4 billion cash and gave their employees nothing from the sale.
Instead they fired and took away their bonuses
Talk about american greed
Where did the 4 billion cash money go?
From the proceeds of the sale
Publicis acquired Epsilon, not Alliance Data.
I guess according to this thin logic if I sell one of my cars to someone they also get to take our other car.
They made over 4 billion cash sale of it in 2019 April.
Wow. Where did the money go?
Who gained from it? Did the employees receive some?.oh no.,they were fired..hundreds.
So where did the 4 billion cash go?
why have they sold their arm?
An arm is part of a body
Epsilon was an "arm" of ADS, but not ADS. I agree, ads will not be around much longer, but it wasn't sold to Publicis.
Epsilon coincidentally had to speak before Congress because they breached customer's confidentiality giving email addresses out of their clients and customers. Smh.
Epsilon is ADS. Same garbage they just decentralize to allow getting through loop holes and shifting money
Oh my, you are a bit testy this morning. I was just commenting, not monitoring. But now I will be monitoring, lol. You shoukd be more informed before commenting .
Not true ADS IS PUBLICIS
And you calm down monitoring this post with wrong information.
Calm down. They bought Epsilon. Not ADS.
Dont get mad at Bangalore folks
Get mad at your ads bosses that sold you out to France. Now they took the $ and ran.
You worked your butt off to
Make the company look it's best to be sold.
After you polished it up, they sold it this year and didn't even give you a bonus check.
Oh no, they took your bonus.
