Thread regarding Medtronic Inc. layoffs

Bsx stock will be worth more than mdt stock before the end of the year

Psst, It doesn’t matter how hard you work. When they sharpen the ax you are just a number on a spreadsheet. Nothing more.

This is a delusional take. For the stock to hit 100, that's nearly a 20% increase from where it has been languishing around 85. What is going to drive that kind of an increase? Only a huge earnings beat vs expectations (not likely) or some blockbuster approval (again not likely) would cause such a move. Or maybe an acquisition or major shakeup in management that is perceived positively by the stock market. Is there anything in the pipeline that would cause the stock to pop like that? Doubt it. Just iterations of existing products and nothing to really drive market share.

I don’t think I’m personally responsible for righting a ship that Medtronic SC steered into rough waters. I’m doing what I can but I don’t make the big decisions. Is the SC looking in the mirror?

The stock is worth $0

Oo your so right, why didn’t I ever think of that. All we need to do is row harder, that will solve our problems, let’s not worry about which boat we are on. I hope Geoff takes his own advice, he has a significant role to play in this mess.

Maybe the difference is all of our competitors are doubling down on investing in innovation and talent HERE while we are hyper focused on outsourcing investments to save money in the short-term. What do I know? I just work here….

I am forced to assume this post is satire, as no one could possibly expect readers to take this seriously. Unless it truly is an exceptionally pathetic attempt at propaganda?

Geoff lost his ability to inspire others...now he's a corporate Ken doll. Pull the string and get a canned answer. His job now is to keep his job by keeping more inspiring leaders at bay.

Yeah no, I will work 40 hours a week looking for a new job. There's no point in putting in extra effort given how low the compensation is at this company.

If you think I'm going to work that hard for 2% and 70% MIP year after year, alongside questionable job security, you have another thing coming.
