#bangalore

Fu--ing disrespectful to see postings/ openings based in Bangalore today on LinkedIn.

Heard of several layoffs in CIT over the last 24 hours. First in the US followed by Bangalore and other regions after. People tech, DES, CTS. Mostly directors and managers but also heard of some ICs. No idea if it’s over but surprised to not see anything about this yet

The biggest reason people doesn’t trust management is we can see with our own eyes what they tell us isn’t true. We work better in person- sure, me sitting alone in a cubicle trying to make sure I click a button a certain undefined number of times is so much better. Indians are our equal partners - sure when I fix something for the tenth time and the guy in Bangalore has no consequences it’s so true. So why would I believe it when they say WFC is a place to build a career when all I see are layoffs?

Heard layoff in Bangalore which happened in NOV was targeted NS and particular org???? Same people under the org in US also were impacted.. but severance was decent itseems.. any idea if it's true????

I am a retiree, been gone and happy for 5 years.
Over the last 2 weeks I have had a few emails, then some phone calls from Chevron folks based in Bangalore.
Seems several people have been giving the team in India the contact details for some of us who are retired.
The nice folks I talked to in India were asking for me be a mentor and help with some technical questions.
What is going on? Who is giving out contact details? have any other retirees had similar communications?

$12,500 per business trip
$80 per hour bill rate

I heard the “pu”s are safe: cpu/gpu/npu

Which teams are going then? Please be bangalore!

The discussions so far have been focused on the US workforce. Would anyone have information of what BC did with offshore offices and teams in CA and Symantec after those acquisitions? Our teams are large in Costa Rica and India (primarily, Bangalore) and we wonder what will happen to us. We have very nice offices in these locations so I also wonder how long it would take to take over or dismantle these children organizations, assuming this is what will happen. Thoughts, please?

SVP of Global Support Karen Egan was in Broomfield colorado area last week and had secretive meetings at the Omni hotel nearby with other front-line tech support managers. What's THAT all about?

Recent job reqs for tech support have all been in "low-cost centers" (Costa Rica and Bangalore) for backfilling positions.

How long until $VMW decides to just ship support to low cost centers completely (and use Atlanta for federal support since it's considered "lower cost") and ditch Broomfield just like they did with Burlington a few years back?

Managers must think that employees don't look at the internal job openings and see where the new openings are based.

If you are working in content operations you must be prepared for layoffs . FX content , pricing, corporate actions, fixed income content, Company financials, commodities and World- Check .Senior leadership is planning to move 500 roles to low cost centers, in order to complete run rate savings . Roles will move to Bangalore, Gydinia and Costa Rica. First wave tone announced after TRI quarterly results . Stay tuned . If you have more insights please share.

Good that Shell Oil has fired very excellent performers since the contractors or full timers are no longer needed for Shell and why the Shell company needs to retain such employees.

It is very good that the Shell has fired all under performed employees at #Bangalore. Now it will remove all contractors of #Accenture, #IBM and #Wipro whoever are working at One Shell Plaza and Two Shell Plaza and other offices located in Houston,Texas.

Also it has plans to remove all contractors even in California Shell Office,Malaysia and other Asian locations of Shell.

All full timers and especially contractors need to look for other jobs but looks like they rarely fit for other jobs since the work environment at shell is like a #Government of India where people get huge salaries for not doing any work.
