A few weeks ago, I mentioned that 3 out of 4 Lead-level team members resigned after bonus payout. Today, the fourth Lead also resigned. Additionally, another less senior team member has resigned as well. Who is next?
Saw this on Reddit today, made me laugh

People in retirement age that hate it here won’t retire because they want a package.
You would think they would be an easy target to be managed out with a performance review. It would be absolutely ridiculous for the company to pay you a severance when you are going retire anyways. I know a few people in Risk that worked out a deal... — read more

Do all layoff notices hit the WARN board?
I see categories for 0-10. Seems to me, if only 1 or 2 people in a site were laid off, they'd fit in that 0-10 category and be listed? Wondering how or when WF files, or what the rules are. I was let go on 9/30/25 but don't see anything on WARN for... — read more

My team never recovered from the cuts
The people they chose to cut never made any sense. Now we can't do parts of the job at all, and we're buried in the rest. It feels like they want us to fail.
layoffs target the wrong group
Want effiency in corp risk? Keep the workers, get rid of 75% of the managing directors. Most are just su-king time, doing as little as possible until retirement, causing inordinate amounts of unnecessary paperwork.
