@ac IntrinsiQ just laid off a few folks including myself, they're ba----ds because they're used us front end sales folk to fatten the bonuses of the VPs and other leadership and then let us go right before payout. Mind you this is also when we lost FCS data and we were still resource strapped. Word of caution, I don't know how other business units operate at Cencora really, but DO NOT work for the IntrinsiQ business unit, there's a reason why they have the highest turnover rate of folks moving to other business units in the company.
@247 how reliable is your source that more legacy xcenda layoffs to come in addition to those leaving Oct 30
@23r yes. Was told more layoffs to come outside of what was announced in June and those who were let go in September (those in Sept were not given months notice they were given notice and told to sign off for good the same day).
@22e Nov 2nd is the last day for legacy xcenda employees who were laid off in June. Do you mean different people will find out they are getting laid off on November 2nd?
@20j legacy Xcenda.
November 2 rumor is for what group?
@1dt that’s how it used to go. Not so much anymore. This most recent round was immediate. We used to also let people apply or reapply to other roles
@1ct if you have been with the company longer than a few years, they will likely give you a release date a few months out
@1ck this is what I am afraid of. I have tried to make sure I have all questions that I have and any documentation I may need before Nov. 2nd (rumored next round of layoffs) because I don't want to end up needing HR after I've been laid off.
@1a7 It takes over a week to get a response from HR Email. How is this company allowed to get away with this?
@161 the hr department has a bunch of mo--ns working. It’s unreal
hr no longer accepts calls. online only
@14q same for our department. Overseas replacements won’t be properly trained by the departure dates of the laid off employees and won’t be able to do the same quality of work. It’s all about money.
Not only were these layoffs unnecessary, but managed HORRIBLY
@ec the dressing in Cencora gear sentence has me laughing so hard. It is so true! Those people are all drinking that Kool-Aid. The sales director for Smartsource would tell us she has to hide her Cencora merch so her son doesn’t take it and wear it. How delusional can a person be and actually think a college student wants to wear that ugly merch
@d6 it is possible to get severance a second time correct?
@cr why does everyone have a manager title I. That department. Very bizarre
@a9 I do think the end goal is to get rid of all American jobs.
@ec yeah but notice how most of those jobs are overseas and not in america. Meanwhile they are firing people who actually know how to to do the work but they don’t want to pay them US dollars.
The place is a train wreck. Meanwhile over 200 internal jobs posted. They need to get rid of the waste and not the people who actually know what they are doing. Seems like they care more about the diversity thumbs up posts on LinkedIn while dressing head to toe in Cencora gear. The company is a joke and enjoys being failures.
@e7 health systems distribution
account management under what portion of Cencora? Wholesale? Legacy Xcenda? Animal Health? Thank you
@bt Ride it out and get your severance pay if you have been with the company more than a handful of years. You deserve at least that from this company.
They just rebuilt the Learning and Development team. I doubt there will be layoffs there.
@a9 I heard it was 4 people on Contracts team. There were others outside of Contracts but not sure how many. Not sure what the count will be for November. Was just warned they were coming and no promises my job was safe. Spent the evening applying for jobs but I've been on the hunt for months now. Job market is dismal right now though.
@OP How many?
@OP entire contracts team as well. I don't think they all had a management titles though. More to come in November. Layoffs never stop. I think the end goal is for all jobs to be transitioned to outside the U.S. They are just doing it gradually with a team here and there. It would be wise to start the job search if you haven't already. I know I have.
