Hey gang. I just saw that TK is now at 9% approval on Glassdoor - https://www.glassdoor.com/Overview/Working-at-Cloud-Software-Group-EI_IE7943488.11,31.htm We can do better than that, can't we? I mean it should at least be below 5%! Let's all do our... — read more
Are you leaving?
What a liberating question! It’s like talking about pay. When HR told me that I was leaving, I asked if they were leaving and they said yes. Then I started noticing others around that seemed to have one foot out the door and we had great... — read more
Don't tell TK but...
...he's wrong! https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/careers/remote-and-hybrid-workplaces-are-hiring-people-twice-as-fast-as-full-time-office-employers-report/ar-AA1e1rfm?ocid=msedgntp&pc=W099&cvid=37b5e2f93f8d4410b59e374b4ed1b103&ei=9
All hands take away
We can keep cutting costs, laying off/selling away entire teams and still increase revenue so we all get raises and bigger stock payouts, all while carrying very expensive debt. Really? Why don’t all other companies unlock this simple little trick... — read more
Indifference on the rise
No matter how big the layoffs were, I get the impression that in the past everyone here cared about it more. But now it seems that most people have become more or less indifferent whether layoffs happen or not? Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm not... — read more
Everybody should leave Citrix
I feel for some of the folks who are still there, as the job market has tightened up significantly as most companies are holding on hiring right now in an effort to contain costs and expenses as we look to roll into a recession this year. The... — read more
Broadcom Stock Price
Since the announcement of TK’s immediate departure from Broadcom, the stock price has shot up nearly 100%, way better than the vast majority of other tech companies. TK must be so rich now that his meager pay here is just charity work.

Sale of PSG
Is it just TIBCO or Citrix as well ? Lawyers must be in the starting blocks !!!
One thing to know about Citrix managers
If their lips are moving they are lying.
Welcome to Titanic
This merger has been nothing but a fu----g disaster. Chaos. Nobody knows what’s going on. Constant changes to everything. I’m just waiting for sh-t to hit the fan.
Hey hey TK, how many jobs have you kïlled today?
What is the body count since this all started?
Promotions
The exodus of people, leaving the incompetent behind to be promoted into roles which they do not qualify… and the way which they use their authority for self interest because they can’t understand anything beyond themselves… is …
Freeeedom!
TK be sitting at his desk wondering why the slaves ain’t in the office today. Pre pandemic today is a normal in office workday. Ain’t nobody around to tell him the times have changed and he don’t care, anyway.
CSG Unite... Really?
Looks like this week was the "lets pat ourselves in the back for screwing up a great enterprise" for Citrix-CSG... Do these folks get out of their self-created bubble? VDI and DaaS are shrinking like there is no tomorrow.... NetScaler- who cares... — read more
What is CSG Unite 23?
Just saw a post from a partner that mentioned attending CSG Unite 2023 in Orlando this week. Is this basically like SKO? I work in the channel and we are a Citrix partner but have literally heard nothing about this event.
Help yourselves
Too many of you are too scared of layoffs. So much so that you're affecting your own health by stressing over it non-stop. You can't live like that. You can’t live in fear. There is no point in worrying about things we can’t control, especially when... — read more
Please, how do I get myself laid off?
I need to leave Citrix more than I need air.
June layoffs
Don’t pay attention to the noise. There are no mass layoffs this month. Ask Mark T. to confirm.
Layoffs coming in June
It’s confirmed to happen this month. TK needed more cost reductions to pay for his fat loss treatment like the baron harkonnen.
What is TK thinking?
Per public online sources, it’s estimated that TK earned over $50mn working at Broadcom. He probably has over $100mn, so it’s perplexing why someone would throw away such a lucrative pay package, lifestyle and the possibility of running a much larger... — read more
Re CSG customers, *who* is leaving or thinking about it?
In the "Long Term Incentives" thread, someone said the following re: "'How many 'pie in the sky promises' have been made by this leadership?' Customers are asking us the same question, and they're equally unimpressed. They say there's no incentive... — read more
Long Term Incentives
The Long Term Incentive program that Tom waxed so eloquently about at the GEM is potentially lucrative....if you're a technical resource. I saw the LTI report for my teams and the non-technical people on my team get....absolutely nothing. $0. A very... — read more

How many people are unhappy about working in the office full time?
I’m curious. Sometimes I feel like it’s just me and a few other people that are not happy about working in the office everyday. Others seem to be working at their desks perfectly enthusiastically with no issue. Anyone else feeling desperate to hurry... — read more

Sales club ok the rock

maybe TK has blocked this site
Noticed this website is not allowed in the building's network. I'm so sick of coming to the office that don't have peripherals and cafeteria to eat.. even in startups they do order cantering 3 times a day.
Everything that once made Citrix a great place to work:
This used to be a really good workplace, but the company has changed a lot. There is a long list of things that made Citrix a good place to work that are no longer here. I'm interested in what are the things you would point out?
Six months later, I'm doing much better
I was laid off six months ago, and today I feel a strong sense of relief being away from Citrix. Although the experience may have been unsettling at first, I realize now it has opened up new opportunities for me to find a much more suitable position... — read more
CSG losing talent, fast
I've kept tabs on who has left, and CSG has lost a LOT of very good talent. And, some of that talent is poaching other talent. In other words, there is a lot more to come. Anyone with a brain can't get out of there fast enough. Also, look for TK... — read more
Id--tic stack ranking system
It was praised at the GEM by the only one in the company under the delusion that it's a good thing. Of course, it'll end up being a popularity contest. That's right, just like in middle school. Anyone who knows they do good work, and is pigeonholed... — read more
