Any news on supposedly confirmed layoffs?
I remember reading something about confirmed layoffs happening in April (I think it was here but I can't find it right now) but I don't see any new info on it. Since we only have two weeks left this month, what are the chances that those rumors are... — read more
Support dropping like a rock contracts are next!
They are more begging people to work tickets and offering money to do so. Everyone on that part of the company is burned out or outsourced and don’t even have clue what to do. There are multitudes of complaints rolling on how resolution time is... — read more
"Earn extra cash by supporting our customers"
After laying off so many support agents and refusing to staff, CDK is now offering up the QSweep program to encourage employees to donate their time to CDK in hopes of prize money. Is this what we do now? Try and garner work for unpaid wages so... — read more
Age of laid-off employees
I’ve noticed a pattern in the last few layoffs: the age always skews higher by a significant margin. How come nobody is doing anything about this? Age discrimination is illegal and it shouldn’t be hard to prove. Is nobody interested in pursuing this... — read more
3 executive to leave in a week 4th in a month.
This CEO is toxic!
How likely is this to happen?
I would not be suprised at all if CDK sold Lightspeed to another company. I always figured this would be the case as soon as CDK went PE. It is very common practice in PE to layoff, outsource, and sell off parts of the company. I literally laughed... — read more
Look for a new job NOW!
Leave this company and don’t sale your self short. BM would love to mill you dry and lie to your face! Your more than just cattle. I have accepted a new offer and will not be back to this place. I won’t even the gracing them with a notice. I’m... — read more
CDK sold its employees to a sweat shop!
GenPack is a modern day sweet shop! I personally know people that have work for them and companies like this. They out source cheep labor and and suck the knowledge from those with experience. If you accept the below average pay you are expected to... — read more
Most valuable asset my ar-e!
More like cattle!
Don’t a deal with the devil WALK OUT
I quit the moment I got the email. I refuse to support this CEO at any cost. If you accept this you’re an enabler. Do not let such a “leader” exist show him he is wrong. Take a hit others don’t!
For those that are downvoting legitimate concerns, WHY?
Do you really think that CDK cares about the employees that work there, or anything other than corporate money grabbing.
They aren't hiding it anymore
https://www.autonews.com/dealers/cdk-massive-employee-outsourcing-plan-works it is a paywall page, but it confirms everything we have been saying here.
Move to Heavy Equipment or Light speed
Make the move! We have not been affected by layoffs at all. There were none in November nor last week. Leadership has assured everyone we are not even a consideration by BM. The are continuing to hire and expand departments. Is the grass greener? No... — read more
How will this week play out?
How are we looking on layoffs?
BM is a thief and a liar
How anyone can hire someone with no regard for the wellbeing of his employees or his American workers is beyond me. CDK wasn't perfect but at least it had some sort of moral character before this man came back to ruin it once more. He is stuffing his... — read more
Hit them where it hurts, act slow on AutoNation assistance
Considering CDK is keeping employees because the important clients like AutoNation don't want to compromise the level of support they get, anybody staying should slow their help with AutoNation. Best case CDK loses AutoNation and whoever gets them... — read more
To accept the job offer at Genpact or not?
Who will accept that offer? I would have to be really desperate to do that. I certainly don't believe that many will accept it.
Lay-Offs are back on
A lot of people were once again laid off yesterday, we were told to keep our mouths shut till end of day today ( Thursday ) as that's when this round would end. We were asked to stay till March 31st to transition our projects to team India and were... — read more
Not sure
Some T1 getting email saying you are not affected but others getting email saying you are being affected. Not sure what group will fare better.
US NRLB rules your Non-Disparagement agreement like the one with CDK is unenforceable
https://www.vice.com/en/article/dy7a7x/companies-cant-ask-you-to-shut-up-to-receive-severance-nlrb-rules
What happens if not enough people accept their offers?
Does that mean that layoffs are guaranteed? It seems like a lose/lose situation whichever way it goes.
Has anyone received a notification?
I still haven't received any notification that my job will be affected.
Genpact
Announcement came out this morning - CDK is outsourcing jobs to Genpact. Not clear who or what products yet. Who has gotten a Genpact offer? Are the offers fair?
Credit Check sold
Expect more layoffs with credit check sold.
Great Place to Work Trust Index Survey?
Is this a joke!?! Do they really expect to achieve this?
Slack is going away and MS Teams is going in
not really a major issue until you consider that everyone and every team is supposed to migrate with less than two weeks notice.
Laid off and going to work for a competitor
What are the consequences if I was laid off and I go to work for a competitor prior to my one year post layoff? Would CDK sue me? Any suggestions? Thoughts? Feedback??
What happened at Southwest Airlines is happening at CDK
When the only objective of the company is to be more profitable over the expense of everything else a major meltdown is not an if, but a when.

Stub Bonus Payout - Sham
Just learned that no Sept - Dec 2022 Stub bonus will be paid to employees terminiated on Dec 15. This is what I figured would happen. Work like a dog until the end and then get SH*T on by Brian and company. Good Riddance CDK and best of luck to BM
Top Heavy
CDK went and hired another executive this week. Another high priced person to micromanage the peons that slave away here in the field. They are so top heavy it’s not funny.
Intern to full time conversion 2022
I interned at CDK in summer 2022. Any idea if CDK giving return offers this year? Asking this due to recent layoffs in the company
So many things have gone wrong
CDK is plagued by a terrible culture, a senior leadership that blames the rank-and-file employees for their poor business decisions, and widespread unethical behavior. I cannot speak for others, but I would be delighted to be laid off. No matter... — read more
I'm tired of this management
The lack of transparency and lack of trust in the workforce is turning this into a horrible place to work. Treating workers like children rather than giving them authority and autonomy to do their jobs is causing many of us to consider leaving... — read more
Vacation
Hope you have a good manager, because I feel drained but I can't get a vacation. My requests for vacation are continuously denied because the company needs me to do work. Anyone else with this problem? I need advice. How did you act in a situation... — read more
Somebody mentioned more layoffs in November
Several people mentioned the potential continuation of layoffs in November. Do we know more about it? If it's true, can we expect it at the start of the month or more towards the end? I wouldn't put it past this sorry excuse for leadership to decide... — read more
Brian MacDonald: Back with a vengeance
On July 12, 2022 when I heard the news that Brian Krzanich resigned from CDK and Brian MacDonald was taking over again, I knew that CDK was doomed. CDK had just become one of the best companies to work for under BK’s leadership, I guarantee you that... — read more
Ersatz CEO Brian MacDonald puts CDK into a COMA; Brookfield signs the DNR!
Brian MacDonald, CDK's ersatz CEO, is a kid hooked on the sugar rush he gets with an EBITDA so high, he's placed CDK in a diabetic coma. He is a one-trick pony addicted to firing that will likely continue to lay waste to the company. Even if he... — read more
