How can a company be financially viable when every level of management, which I looked up from a lowly tech to the ceo is 7 levels, which even my 1st level has only 8 employees. Industry standard is 18-25 (even at other industries) it’s the same, and... — read more

Every week another solid performer walks out due to the uncertainty and constant cuts. Anybody who has options is heading for the door. The brain drain is real, and I don't think leadership even sees it. Or they see it and don't care, instead they're... — read more

Out of 30 or so AVP, VP, SVP on the org chart there is a single non-Indian. Just one. They talked for an hour mostly about AI with little specifics about the plan. Answered a QA about rebadging and gave a 3 minute non-answer.

Managers in retail are starting to step down after this last round of cuts.
