Topics regarding layoffs at Thomson Reuters

Tired and annoyed

I used to enjoy my job for the most part, but thanks to my new manager I've switched to hating it. He avoids us if he can, there is almost no in-person communication. Then he sends us emails about all the things we did wrong the previous day. It's... — read more

Just waiting for the severance

I've been working here on autopilot for some time now, just waiting for severance pay. I believe that most people are sick of TR and are actually just waiting for the package? In the meantime, I'm looking for a new job and if I manage to get a good... — read more

Can someone help me reset my TRID? Also, can someone actually get the thing to work once I log in? Thanks in advance!

So, curious to know, in your opinion which TR initiatives (big or small) are epic failures? I can think of several recent ones that were just totally done halfa$$.

I've never been this tired

I'm tired and frustrated over being so overworked. I'm not the only one. I see my coworkers getting burned out and leaving for jobs that pay less just to get away. I'm not going to be far behind them. Not that anybody will care. Management seems... — read more 

Promoted but dissatisfied?

It's truly shameful that any company would offer its employees a promotion with just a change in title and without a corresponding increase in remuneration to go with the promotion. It begs the question how many senior managers would accept the same... — read more 

Is anybody still happy at TR?

I was laid off over a year ago. I remember being utterly miserable as I was waiting to see what was going to happen and almost feeling relief when I got the news. Things have improved for me significantly since then, so I can't complain. I'm... — read more 

Squeeze, squeeze, and squeeze some more

Listening to all of these town halls, managers, company wide communication the tone they take is so anti-consumer. “We got 60% more money from them” or “They are now spending 30% more”. Nothing about if those clients are going to get more for their... — read more 

Revenue Increase...Sales pips?

I've heard a lot about sales pips. At the same time, am coming to understand that we have pretty healthy revenue growth. Where's the discrepancy? Price changes due to inflation? Any insights? This company is so weird.

Pres of Corporates no longer w/ TR

Announcement yesterday that Pres of corporates (SP) no longer w/ TR. Anyone have anymore info on this, why it happened, and what it could mean for TR organization?

Feeling stuck

Telling my manager exactly what I want out of my career and outlining my professional goals, does not bring any results. I feel stuck here. How to grow at TR when there's no room for growth? How many of you feel stuck here? It seems that the only... — read more 

This shouldn't be possible

How can people be in the same position for years and still not know how to do their jobs? More importantly, how are people who have been here for years and still have no idea what they're doing still employed while we keep losing good employees to... — read more 

LEADERSHIP THAT STARTED IN 2021

K-NICH AND D-BRUN have single handedly allowed over 20 talented reps leave to TR in less than 2 years as well as put probably another 10 on performance improvement programs that require reps in particular positions to pick up the slack or they’re... — read more

Reps are just a number now

Inside source here 😊. This company is going down the drain and their products suck, over priced, outsourcing support, customer service, etc to save every dime they can. Heck, 4 years ago they started taking trash cans out of our cubicles and made... — read more 

Is there a bigger plan in play for the higher ups?

Awhile back when all the best leaders all of sudden had no positions or were forced into retirement there may have been more at play. New leadership brought in from other divisions that know nothing of the well oiled machine TR once was assumed these... — read more 

They want people to leave without severance

I can't resist thinking that this is exactly what TR is about - they are very creative at how to make an employee reach the breaking point and leave voluntarily. What method do they use on you to get you to leave without a package? In my case, I am... — read more 

This takes the cake

TR leadership has done a lot of stupid things but my favorite remains getting rid of some of our best people and then having to hire two and in some cases even three people to do their work. Even at their higher rate of pay, by the time they're... — read more

McKinsey and opi--ds

Anyone know if SH was part of the opi--d consulting team at McKinsey with pharmaceutical companies?

Mediocrity drowns everything of quality

This is nothing new, nor is it unique to TR: generally, the bigger the mediocrity, the faster it climbs the corporate ladders. Is quality here important at all today?

What is the point of exit interview?

It totally doesn't make sense for me to have to explain why I'm leaving the company, especially when this company hasn't given any of the laid-off employees more detailed explanations as to why they are no longer needed. I would most like not to... — read more 

What are they waiting for?

Employees deserve to be paid more. Is TR waiting for everyone capable to go to the competition to finally react and think about giving people adequate compensation for their work?
