or does it seem that this year's layoff numbers are so far lower than the past few years?

Why Would Anyone Choose 5-Day RTO Here?
People will make sacrifices for a company with upside momentum. A company growing fast. A company where employees share in the upside growth.
That’s usually how the deal works, you give more, and you get more.
Maybe it’s equity. Maybe it’s stock appreciation. Maybe it’s career opportunities. Maybe it’s the feeling you’re building something special, but let’s be honest… Nobody believes AT&T is becoming the next Nvidia or SpaceX.
The stock has spent years going sideways while leadership lectures everyone about being “market-based.”… In an actual market-based environment, employees who make sacrifices are rewarded for them. They share in growth. They share in success. They see opportunity.
Here the expectation is simple… commute more, spend more, give up flexibility, absorb the cost, absorb the stress, and be grateful for the “privilege”. The company keeps demanding more while offering less. Less flexibility. Less trust. Less autonomy.
The problem isn’t that people don’t want to work. The problem is that leadership keeps asking employees to make sacrifices without offering anything meaningful in return.
The one thing this company actually had going for it was flexibility. Leadership took that away too, and now they’re surprised by the results.
As long as there are no layoffs in the US, I'm happy
We're the ones who usually pay the price whenever costs need cutting. Seeing others being hit for a change is a bit refreshing. No hate but it's about time.
Q1 is going to be the harshest reality check
reality doesn't care about aspirations and promises...
Internal mobility?
Has anyone moved internally recently? Has anyone had luck or grass greener doing this?
Good to see TD being talked about on Reddit
Though not for good reasons. I guess this is as close to relevance as they can get these days though.

SCM gutted
Heard that SCM was gutted this week. Anyone have details?
How Many MCP Emails Do We Need?
Another Friday email about MCP. The fifth? Tenth? Who knows anymore. The topic changes slightly, but the result is always the same: lots of buzzwords, very little substance, and almost nothing employees actually care about. Same goes for Radio FactSet.
Meanwhile, layoffs happened this week and didn’t deserve a single mention. Is the CEO genuinely aware of what’s happening inside the company, or is he too busy writing thought pieces about AI? The disconnect is becoming impossible to ignore.
Capital One Cuts Jobs Amid Discover Acquisition

Demotions or hanging on for dear life?
I'm seeing some linked in posts where people are 'so excited to announce I'm taking a new position as a director in Fidelity blah blah ' where they were formerly VPs. Of course one in particular I saw scrubbed that gleeful vp announcement from 3 years ago from his linked in page. Are there people who took demotions to stay in lieu of getting $hit canned or is this some sort of universe correcting reorg?
Whelp
It’s 2:30 here at HQ. I’ve met my 40 hour requirement for the week so it’s time to head home. Man I love Summer Fridays!

The new slogans…honest thoughts
I’m trying to wrap my head around the fact that our new purpose slogans are all these military esq phrases “take the hill” “run together” etc. who told them these were inspiring phrases that were going to get us all excited about our purpose?
And I work in Robinson where leaders have to say “glad to be here” in meetings The morale at my plant is the absolute worst I have ever seen it in my career!!!!!! What is happening to this company? Glad to be here, take the hill, run together. What’s next?

Ford reported sales are down by double digits
Ford just reported sales and it's down big time, even with Ford employees discount for all. People are finally realizing that Ford vehicles are junk. Other automotive companies sales are up. GM and Stellantis did not report.
