Nothing for the hard working staff versus KLT and CEO working towards the FP multi millions of bonuses on 5year FP sell off. Makes you feel sick but the happy clappers still spouting BS.
Some only got just over 1%
P-Poor reward for those left dealing with the mess.
The new term for this is Quiet Firing. CDK is a trailblazer and has been practicing this since 2014.
Despair strategy would be to tire employees by hoping that they will leave spontaneously.
Attention that could backfire with very high costs .....
3% was the cap across the employee base, no one got higher, so would be a bit of a gamble if it forces so many out at the same time. One way to bring a company down I suppose.
That’s by design. They want you to leave on your own so they don’t have to pay you severance. If you have not got a merit increase, that’s means you are not that valuable for the company and they are ok with you leaving
I think we can expect a few more to jump ship in the next month or so after the pitiful Sept "merit" increase of 3% Some didn't even get that. How they can expect to retain people is beyond me.
Any more info on who has left Keyloop now
Another one leaves the sinking ship HMS Keyloop, what will the black ops team do without him? I would suggest the same as with him - sod all.
On one hand it's probably a fair point that there's confusion over the company names in the threads now and technically this isn't now under the correct name. On the other, it takes a certain amount of entitlement to turn up to a years running thread where all of maybe 2 people from CDK Global have recently posted, suggesting that everybody else should be the ones to leave.
It would probably make more sense to try to set up a brand new, fresh page for the new CDK Global bout of layoffs/maybe even somebody ask thelayoff.com to rename this one, if that's something they can do?
This thread is getting confusing now that cdk are doing the same thing keyloop did. Maybe the keyloop people should get there own and let the cdk people complain about their private equity buyout in peace.
Restructure is still happening, its still being relayed via townhalls bit by bit but nobody really knows what is going to happen. My guess now, is that people will bd forced into roles which they don't want to do and ultimately these people will be forced to leave without redundancy.
Pensions not being paid on time every month is very concerning. I don't think there are any sales people left now so can't see how revenue will ever come in to pacify the mo--ns.
A couple of questions if I may. Have there been any more "Mass Redundancies" since January or have the KLT finished with the restructuring? have things started to calm down now for those friends left behind?
I really hope things have settled for all you Ladies and Gents still there.
Wonder how many customers are happy and supporting keyloop?
Only positive comments are made in town halls by klt nodding donkeys
Does reliability still matter? more clearly ..... can you be in the market when a company is recognized by all as unreliable?
Where there is a big pile of Brian cr-p, the flies are near by. Same sh!t, same CEO, same flies. New owners are obvious not that smart. Mass customer exodus follows.
Over the cliff I assume. Destroyed by the greed of a few at the expense of many.
The yes men will give the company the final push.
Bet thouse that remain are so happy for permanent home working, means they won't have to see the fake soul-less smiles of Killjoy, the HR Joy Vacuum and their band of d!kheads in person anytime soon. It's a shame though, to see the good ones, even in HR, get dragged down by the KLT; hopefully they get out soon.
Seen it a few times here but if you want to escape the prison of Keyloop please reach out to ex-colleagues. Getting out was the best thing I ever did.
Confirmation of more people quitting, jumping ship today. Restructure of departments imminent. Absolute shower of shi£e with no one knowing what's going on or who/ where they will be reporting. Stand your ground guys and hold out for a redundancy payout or severance payment. Fcuk em
Whoever understands that there is no future prefers to leave the company.
Two senior directors gone, guess its not all as rosy as Keyloop like to make out
They also employ people with the title Product Manager, although very few actually have any knowledge of the product - probably one of the reasons why none of the integrations work.
The telephony offering is a tu-d. The same old issues which were going on years ago still not working, product generally not fit for purpose, integration not working properly, no resource in place with the knowledge to fix the issues or develop the product. The sales person who has left has probably seen that he cannot lure customers with 100% discounts any more so has no option than to move on.
Project managers or IPM's leaving? There is a big difference................. I didn't know Keyloop employed Project Managers.
Lots of good people are resigning, just recently there have been the main IP Telephony specialist, a key Account Manager and several Project Managers, says it all about the current operating model, which is failing.
F.A.O the people going back:
Broaden your horizons, don’t let these fakers ruin your career twice
The concentration of empty heads at the helm of this company is incredible ...... it seems that a research has been done specifically ... is it a scientific experiment ????
Things have definitely not improved at keyloop after a year. We keep getting told that customers understand the journey we are on. Must be different customers that we speak to daily. Customers are not King with keyloop.
They keep trying to change the queue formula's to try and get it to work. Have failed miserably in trying to entice former employees back. Recruitment in UK is failing due to lack of interest, maybe offering too little.
Looks like Killjoy has posted a comment not sure why he has called himself Randy, Perhaps it's how he is feeling?
Well this thread has gone very quiet................ things must be improving at Keyloop? Perhaps the KLT's vision was correct?
The shareholder just looks at the money, buys, cuts staff, increases profitability, collects money from desperate customers and resells to another investment fund and off with another carousel, another round to final closure. It 's just greed, the same greed that leads to war ..... all the rest ..... stupid slogans and tragicomic theaters for those who know how to observe and do not let themselves be fu---d.
Engineering is completely rudderless. The CTO appears to be AWOL - at least there's no discernible sense of leadership coming from him. The Chief Architect keeps losing staff - partly because he doesn't trust anyone, and partly because he's so scared of getting stuff wrong that he's incapable of making timely decisions. The CTO's other direct reports are all paper-pushers who don't have the intellectual curiosity or engineering skills to push the products or processes forward. The PI Planning meetings I've been in have been a joke - it's like watching toddlers trying to work out how to put building blocks together, there just isn't the depth of skilled people there used to be. There are so many cliques that the smart people who do remain are all too often marginalised and the wrong set of people end up making the decisions. It's all very sad.
Welcome to the keyloop family…… welcome to he-l!
First year report…..
So the parts of the company that worked well a year ago like the GM local countries, support and implementation are now a shambles. Centralisation and smartshore has removed the large majority of highly skilled and knowledgeable employees. People have been promoted over their capabilities and the customer service is terrible and getting worse daily. Morale is rock bottom.
The parts of the company that were failing a year ago like product and engineering are still the same… impotent. No product , still old UX/UI and still very unstable. When was the last time the company launched a class leading product, you are right you can’t remember can you.
So if you can’t build then buy. Done lots of this, all unsuccessfully integrated and then stripped and burnt…. Pointless waste of money and sad for the good companies now having to endure the keyloop family he-l.
The OEM’s have had enough and servicing notice on long term contracts, so high customer losses.
The corporate spin doctors are very successful, painting a picture of success, happiness and market leadership so there are some winners.
All done for the greed of a few at the expense of the many.
Overall report score F = Failed.
Nothingness, emptiness, complete immobility, only collection of money from desperate customers
In a world where you can be anything, be kind.
Incompetence, negligence, lack of serious strategy, even gross errors, are causing irreversible damage to the company.
P&O boss admits that no-notice redundancies break the law, no matter how much they pay you. The government are calling for the head of P&O to go for doing this, Tom K, are you listening.
This is what you did to us! I'd never come back, but you need to go, and be barred from holding a directors position in the UK.

Every company in the world is reviewing their office space, so it’s natural to assume that keyloop is doing the same thing. Given the percentage of people working from home right now it wouldn’t surprise me if keyloop does close a few of its buildings. Would you rather everyone was forced back full time, I think not.
Let's see how the Hungerford closing rumour pans out......................
Has Tom bought P&O?
