Our new team member left after less than three months here. That's where we're at right now. People can't even last three months here. I admire him, to be honest. He got a job, he saw it wasn't anywhere close to what he was expecting, and he decided... — read more 

Stop announcing to anybody willing to listen that you're planning to leave. It's a fact that we'll be having major layoffs soon. If your name is on the list and your manager finds out through somebody you told you're planning to leave, your name will... — read more 

We have a survey that has gone out to share feedback how things have been going. They say it’s anonymous, but it can’t be anonymous because you get a personalized link. Remember, surveys are never anonymous.

An email went out in the org asking for others to assist voluntarily in the Support org in the month of March because headcount is so low over at Citrix. It also claims over 160+ positions are waiting to be filled.

My opinion is that the biggest problem is that top dogs will never admit their mistakes. That’s by no means a trait of good leadership, is it? Therefore, it is not surprising that bad moves are constantly being made and that now few people think... — read more

While they legally don’t have to pay severance in some regions, they will though it may be reduced. Let’s say they lay off 5% at acquisition and don’t pay severance. There would be a mass exodus at Citrix and they know that. And no, they can’t just... — read more
