The next few weeks..

Does anyone know who will be the target? I'm preparing as if the rumors about the upcoming layoffs are true.

April Fools!

In order to keep the ship from sinking we need to dissolve and eliminate Home Network in April. Please get behind this decision as it is best for everyone. Your Dear Leader will provide further communication in this matter during the coming weeks. — read more 

Managers have no idea what they're doing

Commscope is filled with managers who are great with corporate jargon but have zero knowledge about the subject matter and the nature of the work their employees are doing. The only reason these people are in the positions they're in is that they... — read more 

Nice surprise.

Great bonuses announced this week. Surprising but cool.

Compensation Transformation (or not)

The Mangler naturally puts equal compensation for employees behind all, and then goes on to say that Phase I will cover senior management first (sure, because they're the poorest) and Phase II will cover the rest of the workforce. Well, Mangler... — read more 

Rumors about layoffs don't bother me at all anymore.

It used to be that every time I heard some rumor about layoffs my anxiety levels went through the roof, but over time I started worrying less and less. Moreover, now I would like to be first one on the layoff list. I have noticed this with my... — read more

Subtle red flags before you were laid off

I'm anxious and worried about getting cut. Losing my job even for a short time would be really bad for me because I have no savings and I still haven’t received a new offer. There must be some tiny, subtle signs that can serve as a red flag that a... — read more 

Your predicted stock nose dive, was spot on

This is really interesting. Last year someone wrote the following (I quote): ######################### "Chuck was brought in to make money and save the stock price, he doesn’t care about saving the company. If you are the least bit concerned about... — read more

HR is useless

They'll go out of their way to protect the company, but they don't give a damn about you. The only thing that you'll achieve if you go to HR for help with a verbally abusive manager is to put a target on your own back. If you're at the bottom of the... — read more

Home Networks spinoff

This board has been dead for the last month or so. Not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing. I take it as good that there hasn't been any layoffs and things are starting to stabilize for the company. Was the criticism of Chuck a little... — read more

Overwhelmed and overworked

There is so much work that it becomes impossible to finish everything on time. The situation is aggravated by the fact that everyone is demotivated and no one is trying to try their best. Working here has become more depressing than ever. People are... — read more

It is a lost cause

People are leaving en masse, everyone is depressed, no one has any motivation. I have given notice and I already feel a little better, I am here for a few more days. I wonder what the future holds for this company? I prefer to watch from a... — read more

If you live long enough you get to see companies cycle through infancy-growing pains, seriously great work, seriously stupid decisions, serious damage control, focusing on keeping the company from going below $5 on the NASDAQ while berating the... — read more

I miss Commscope

Or let me rephrase it, I miss the people I used to work with. Yes, the company is horrible. It doesn't pay well, it doesn't appreciate its hardest-working employees, and the management is incompetent at best. Those are all the reasons why I left. But... — read more

CFO stepping down

He was the right hand man to Chuck and was all bullish on the stock growth. He is leaving after knowing there is no financially means that Commscope is going to go up.

Layoff rumors

Given that people are leaving here en masse, I don’t believe there will be cuts. However, this is CommScope, anything is possible here. Has anyone heard any new rumors about layoffs? I wouldn’t worry much if I had managed to find a new... — read more

Grass always greener on the other side

I don't work at CommScope, yet, but it seems kinda negative here, so wanted to give some outside advice. The complaints you speak of are common for a publicly traded company. In the review boards like Glassdoor and others, you can also see that HR... — read more

Feeling appreciates (not!)

Nothing makes me feel more supported and appreciated than having the dept VP set a deadline to complete the hours-long ethics and compliance training a month before the actual due date -- all while the entire team is working a million hours on the... — read more

Something to think about…

Chuck was brought in to make money and save the stock price, he doesn’t care about saving the company. If you are the least bit concerned about your job, you might want to casually look and rekindle relationships with your network circle/recruiters... — read more
