More Benefits Being Cut
So they cut maternity leave from 4 months back to 6 or 8 weeks depending on delivery. I wonder what will be next? And the good old boys club keeps getting bigger. Are we in 1960 cause it sure feels that way.
Is this only happening in US?
Is this only happening in US? how about EU?
Summer Off ?
So have they taking a break ? Ot back at it on Monday ?
People who have been Laif Off - Questions
1) Did you notice anything odd with your systems or access prior to being laid off ? 2) Did American Express contact you directly to cut off your credit card ? 3) Cell phones - were they immediately cut off ? 4) Company cars - did you need to return... — read more
This is far from over
I think we are at a point where layoffs can be considered a fact of life at Dun & Bradstreet. We'll be seeing more and more of them, most likely on monthly bases - as somebody mentioned in another tread. There isn't much we can do about this. If the... — read more
Data Acquisition and Content.
Terrible day. More to come. Management won't even say what positions were let go or how they made the decision. Gutless. Does anyone know other positions. I know Data Acquisition and Content.
Start looking for new employment
I was laid off in March and was lucky enough to get a reasonable severance. During the first town hall, I vividly recall Steve Daffron saying that "people are so important that they were listed twice" PE companies are concerned with two things:... — read more
Macs are gone in July
I'm a designer and video editor for the company who regularly uses my Mac, and Apple/Adobe programs for both. Now they're forcing us to switch to Windows 10 PCs by July. I'd say this is my last straw, but I ran out of straws months ago.
Lattice acquisition
Looks like there is money to spend! More boondoggles for the S&MS team? However I do feel bad for all these incoming new employees who have know idea what’s in store for them.
Laid off in April...
Was laid off in April, got 6 month severance package. Couldn't be happier, now with my new company, and am so happy!
Canada closing
Any truth in this rumor
I'm wondering, when can we expect more layoffs?
It has been one week since the townhall, and I feel like it is coming sooner than later.
Content, Technology, Service, and Delivery
I would expect the majority of Content, Technology, Service, and Delivery functions to be outsourced.
Talent assessments = layoffs???
Likely. Such a terrible environment.
So. What’s the verdict of the big town hall
I was off today. Everyone is quiet. My co workers are not saying a word. Was it that good or that bad.
What happened?
Any chance somebody can let us know what happened at Dun & Bradstreet regarding benefits? My dad's been in a lousy mood this entire week, but he's not saying why. Something tells me this might have something to do with it. I'd be very grateful for... — read more
Any news in CV closing? I'd rather be jobless than have my benefits and vacation cut.
How else will I find a new job if I don't have those vacation days to go to my interviews????
Who’s ready for tomorrow!!
Who’s ready to hear vacation will be cut. No more raises. Benefits will be worse than what they were. It’s going to be a great day. Update your resume. This shiZ show is coming to a close faster than you can imagine.
They are not actually closing CV?
I am highly doubtful that they will not be renewing the lease at CV, does anyone have facts to back up this claim?
Town hall. When??
When is this meeting again. CV is going to find out the building lease isn’t being renew.
Town Hall not in Short Hills?
I just heard that the global D&B town hall meeting next week is NOT going to be held from the usual Short Hills, NJ HQ... Um, why? And where might it be held instead?...
At least S&MS is safe
All the outcasts from Alliances that had it good for a few years got moved into decent roles with S&MS product. Some even got promotions! Seems like that’s the one LOB that will be ok. Still heard from the PE circle that the eventual goal is... — read more
The Future
I’ve been reading this board for a few weeks and there are definitely different opinions out there. Yesterday was another reminder that we all need to make a decision - stay or go. If you choose to stay, you will choose to live in constant... — read more

It’s gotten so bad that the HR rep who let a bunch of people go today got let go herself. Update your resumes, everyone...
Top place to work for 2019
Wonder if we will make the list next year, at least we have a billboard this year....
10 Let go at MDR - Market Data Retrieval DNB Shelton
It was a very somber morning seeing peers you worked with for 25 years leave for the last time.
D&B you should be ashamed of yourself.
So, in CV finance they let go 5 people from what I heard. One was the manager of AR inbound, 3 were long time employees, and one is on MEDICAL LEAVE. Who lays someone off who is on medical leave??? With all of this going on, our manager has not even... — read more
They're pulling people into meetings.
Sounds like it's already beginning.
Mood at CV
What’s the mood like at CV. Is the hammer falling. Not much being said.
Who is most at risk?
I'm relatively new at Dun & Bradstreet, and from what I understand, layoffs usually get rid of people who have been with the company the longest because they provide the largest savings for the company. Is this really the case? Does that mean that I... — read more
Are we ready for today?
