Did anyone else receive a survey in technology regarding management and communication? Is this their way of letting people go?

I thought it was one of those department wide surveys, when I saw it was about corp comm I bailed.
I get emails from execs just about every day, along with notices for tons of things I care not about.
If I was planning on staying long term I'd complete the thing, and I'll tell them to stop wasting everyone's time, that 6-S's is lazy and bad management, and that I don't care where the exec's spend their holiday.
In the comments I'd add stop sending useless survey's and fix stuff, because in IT, everything is broken.
Don't read too much into this survey. This was plainly a "How can we cut our internal communications budget" questionnaire.
Every question was basically "do you use this part of Teamworks?"
Plus with how the questions were targeted they were obviously going after areas people are less likely to use. No need to freak out over it.
If you believe that Then you don’t know don’t know Charlie. Muck around with the tail end of the URL until it lets you in, then Have At It!
I was on the fence. I used to give mostly 5's, these day's I'd give a mix of 1's and maybe a few 5's, depending on the questions.
If you don't tell them what a trainwreck they've let the place become, nothing will improve.
I used to be in management, trust me, they take these survey's seriously.
For the paranoid folks, I get it, but get over it, they've been doing these since I started over 10 years ago and you won't find anyone who got into any trouble for their answers.
I never fill those things out.
I never fill out any surveys for Wells Fargo. There's no real upside to spending the time on it since nothing would change. Plus there could potentially be downside if the survey is being used dishonestly.
I got one in WIMT last month. Who knows if its same as yours but i respond cause its a chance to speak truth to power but one question stood out, they asked: do you want to stay and make it right. I'm paraphrasing there but pretty direct.
Yep, I received it as well. I trust that almost as much as I trust submitting an "anonymous" question for SVB to ignore. No way am I filling that out.
I received it but I am not sure if I will fill it out. The only choice is a glowing review, or to not complete the survey at all. Honesty will get you added to layoff list.
