CPADS Layoff - How does management decide who will go ??

CPADS Layoff - we were told surplus will based on Rating, Ranking, Skills, Experience

  1. Ranking - How does managers "Rank" their employyees ? What criteria?

  2. Rating - Performance rating at Amplify - How was years HR goes back to check Ratings?

  3. How does the Surplus tool really works ?

Any ideas...

All your seeing is the start of a plan to eliminate as many people as possible before 2020.

Sadly many think it will be the other guy and don't even realize what is going on around them.

Management does have a rating system and it is a big scam. executives demand the bottom 20% be dumped and the ratings used and methods work for them.

Think the requirement for additional classes is good? Miss any and your at the bottom of ranking.

The surplus tool is for non-management, non-exempt employees. There is no surplus tool for management employees that I can find.

I'll know Oct 28th, along with many other people. Oct 28th gets you off the books for 2017. That said, if you are a geographic outlyer of your core organization, chances are you are getting cut. Randall doesn't like Californians (expensive and more regulated), so if you are group in Dallas, and one person is CA, then the CA person is going to be on the list of cuts. Frankly, and I hate to say this, there is ethnic/religious bias in some groups. Can't prove it but everyone knows it's there.
