It's terrible how disorganized this company has become. Have you experienced this much poor planning anywhere else? I doubt it. They have absolutely lost their direction, as if they don't know what they are doing at all. I consider it pure luck... — read more
CDK Global is holding a career fair on Oct 25th!?!?!?!?
Look I'm all for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion but it's really weird that they're having a career fair and looking to hire people when they just recently cut close to 600... — read more
The US Surgeon General says CDK sucks
Check out the report on mental health and wellness, and see how many boxes CDK doesn't check in being a great workplace. https://www.hhs.gov/surgeongeneral/priorities/workplace-well-being/index.html
CDK is the worst place to work at
CDK Global is heading in the wrong direction, laying off most of its tenured employees. Feel sorry for the clients as there isn’t any support left for them.
CDK "was" a wonderful company to work for.
After working for ADP/CDK for over 40 years, the company is now destined to fail. We had 500 cases sitting in the System 1 queue. Some of the caes are 2 weeks old. Few are available to even look at the cases. Then we're switched to half-baked... — read more
What a relief
I thought that the layoff would be the end of the world for me, but now that the emotions have calmed down a bit, I feel a great relief..
You know what the biggest thumb in the eye is?
The prefix for the E-mail address they use to send the documentation you need to sign after being laid off is ALUMNI. "Congratulations! You've graduated... to the unemployment line!"
Make sure to leave BM and CDK a rivew on glass door.
As I recall the low rating pi---d off BM last time so we might as well drop it down again. It was a real slap in the face when they put that guy back in charge, I wouldn't trust that guy with a hot dog stand. If they are going to play games at the... — read more
What can we expect next week?
I know I won't be able to relax this weekend. I don't know if layoffs will spill over into the next week or not but since I don't trust management anymore - they have lied to us so many times and they do not deserve our trust - I'm leaving all... — read more
Cheaper workforce is a quick solution, but...
it is definitely not the best solution. Cheaper workforce, which is what this leadership is aiming for, is not a solution without problems in the long run. Many perplexities could begin to arise from this... Thoughts?
Clients need to be altered
We all worked so hard supporting our clients. It was personal. Cdk clients need to be very aware of what’s going on. Support is going to be nothing A very large probability of it being an India associate that has no business supporting our customers... — read more
When did it all go downhill?
While I'm mentally preparing to be laid off and doing my best to increase the chances of getting a new offer as soon as possible, I'm trying to recall exactly when everything went downhill here. Because it used to be really nice to work here. If... — read more
This is not about long-term gains
There are two ways to increase profit. Cut overhead expenses or invest in future long-term growth. Guess which quick and dirty solution was chosen that holds little risk? Ki----g off tenured talent is not positioning for long-term growth. B-Mac... — read more
List of Departments Affected?
I figure it would be good for everyone if we could try to keep a tally or at least have awareness of departments that are being cut, maybe a approximate or estimated headcount as well?
What business school did these people go to??
How does CDK expect to increase revenue if they just laid off half the engineers installing their products? They don't actually know how to grow, only cut. Sad.
MacDonald with the Thanos snap at it again
Bowel Movement is at it again with more layoffs... second round since returning in July. Anyone know how many this time? Will it ever end? I'm hoping I'm one of the lucky to get let go.
BPM needs to be stopped
This guy is bananas and clearly does not care about employee or company success. It's borderline criminal! It may actually be criminal...
Numbers and target groups
Does anyone know how many people will be affected and who are the main targets?
What's the situation with severance?
Has it been reduced? What was offered in this round? Is anything else part of the package? I'm sorry about so many questions, but since we all know that layoffs are not done I would like to know what people who are being shown the door are receiving... — read more
Are we done with cuts?
Or should we expect more by the end of the week?
Is the CEO the worker's enemy?
Should it be this way? Come on...
Mr Micky D has done it again!!!
Mr Micky D has done it again!!! They are determined to move folks jobs over seas. They are ripping the guts out of a once great company CDK Global. Clients will suffer the most here so that greedy folks can get richer. Pay that premium price for that... — read more
Layoffs today
Layoffs have started again today. Unknown how many total are happening but several people have had random meetings scheduled and didn't return after.
Complete transformation of Customer Success, for the good or bad?
Had a zoom meeting with 250+ people on Thursday, led by Joseph Demott primarily regarding the restructuring of customer success + more. Elead crm has account managers that travel and performance managers that work remote. From my understanding the... — read more
Yearly raises pathetic
The head of HR had a meeting to explain why are raises this year like every year we’re so bad. He even said that last year we had negative inflation. Really? Hopefully leadership will get their normal millions in bonus pay while the people working... — read more
9/29 RIF
It has started. Does anyone have any updates on what they have heard so far?
CDK Leadership is so out of touch with reality
They just sent a email that is helping to empower us to be knowledgeable and able to incorporate straight talk of our own by using a consistent, approved message that are aligned with CDK's business strategy. How can you compare consistent, approved... — read more
RSU Transition
Does anyone have any information on what will be announced for the RSU Transition meetings?
Maybe they are losing control
It looks like they have no intention of retaining anyone, regardless of how talented and capable the employee is. Of course, maybe everything got out of control and they don't even have the possibility to retain anyone anymore?
Too many managers
I don't know how it is in other departments, but my department has almost more managers than workers. This is not normal and of course no company can be sustainable in this way. If CDK would get rid of at least some of them who are totally... — read more
mgmt encourages leaving
They are probably doing this with the aim of not giving many people severance pay. It is obvious that the management is deliberately overloading their employees. Is it even worth waiting for the package here? I have no other option so I have to put... — read more
Falling behind competitors
It's sad for me see this because I used to really like working here. I think the reason why CDK is losing ground to competitors is that the leadership does not have a clear business vision and goals at all. I know that some people think that... — read more
A toxic company
Everybody worth their salt is leaving.
Sad excuse for leadership
We have leaders who know they're incompetent and who have surrounded themselves with yes-people so they can never hear any criticism of their decisions. That's why we keep losing our best people to layoffs and attrition. There's nobody brave enough... — read more
CDK is not what it was and it's not coming back
A friend of mine has given their notice and has inspired myself and others to do the same. The stress is ridiculous and while there are Managers and Supervisors who understand; it isn't enough to convince people to stay. CDK need to re-evaluate how... — read more
I'll gladly volunteer
If more cuts are being planned, I'll gladly volunteer for it. I'm certain I'm not the only one who feels this way, so hopefully, the management will be smart enough to offer voluntary buyouts before any major cuts. Giving people a chance to leave on... — read more
More Layoffs promised
More layoffs have been promised. Brian MacDonald does not have a clear plan for the future of CDK.
HR just gave a 30 minute long webinar of excuses why they are not keeping up with inflation
only 2.5 to 3% increase.. stock also being taken away, employees are all getting pay cuts this year.
More layoffs are coming?
I heard that some of the best employees were cut. I hope that everyone affected will soon find new and better jobs. I am frantically looking for new opportunities because it is easier to get a new job when you already have a new job. Is it true... — read more
