What depts move to Houston?

Any CEO could meet those incredibly low expectation's.

He made it known when discussing RTO that there is still a 150 million restructuring charge to "right size" the company

Wonder what the reason for that comment was

Lol

Self published and thousands of copies. So sad. So NOT what AI is all about - actual paper copy book. Good grief. Then there are the WILD events Sales sponsors for leadership and their pets & the wink wink business travel needed to international destinations where leadership family tags along. Money, money, money. No bonuses, no hiring, leadership BLEEDING fun spending. NORTEL all over again.

This company isn't even capable of running an all hands

Is it true that the once exclusive CPQ quote tool is now being used by the dealers?

If so, when did that start?

Why not go all the way? What's stopping us from going all out with buying them? I thought we had endless money to empower us to be a global force in entertainment. If we lose out on this, I see another cut so big the wound will never heal.

Enjoy.

Overheard a manager across the cubicle talking about a 5% across the board reduction next week. I’m in Jersey City. They are definitely acting like a RIF is imminent.

What is going on in Jacksonville, more layoffs? Board on site?

IBM’s spinoff, Kyndryl, seems to be in a wee bit of trouble.

I was going to attach a link, but honestly, just Google it — there are plenty of articles out there.

It’s a company led by former IBM executives, operating with the same policies, technology stack, infrastructure, and culture.

Something is rotten. Will it infect the mothership?

Or at least, I haven't heard a thing. Somehow, that makes me even more worried. They've trained us well.

Just like Frank ruined this company he is about to destroy the IRS and Social Security office. He doesn't see the destruction he has caused.

Converse layoffs. Nike layoffs. Layoffs, layoffs, layoffs. Holy fvck. Just die already.

I've been here for 12 years and I am so burned out by it all.

No money for anything. No baIIs to do what's right. Shovel jobs to India where they don't give 2 shlts.

Why should any of us care anymore? I feel like I'm working at the Blockbuster of shoe companies.

Why

Operations generally strive to perform well so the company will see the value they bring and not put them up for sale.
Kaparuk uses the strategy of performing poorly and constantly whining and complaining so no one will buy them and ConocoPhillips is stuck with this group of industry rejects

Has anyone heard anything here? There were some commentary on this forum but looks like they got taken down. I always thought Consultant Relations roles were like cushy sales gigs where they weren’t on the hook for any actual sales.

I worked for the CSC and got JE last year. I could tell it was coming because a lot of our work was being moved to India and they were lying to the employees about it. The customers started complaining because of the language barrier and general lack of knowledge of these overseas agents. Does anyone knows the current status of the CSC? Are there any employees still left in the USA or is it entirely in India now?

When there is good results across ABB, why are they cutting resources in Middle East countries

Anyone know the reasons for, or implications of, this?

2 plant closings announced in the past few weeks. What plant will be next?

How are we going to 'delight the customer' if our customer service is horrible?

Anyone surprised? Me neither. I'm not moving to Houston even if they offer it, which I'm sure they won't for most of us.

Sounds like it has begun. Updates?

Everyone ready for all the ata boys on how AMAZING we did at the Superbowl on LinkedIn, followed by all the a-s kisser comments and likes. Could have saved a few jobs with the cost of that.

why cant we elect our C suite like we elect government officials lol
Let's make american companies great again!

It appears that 2026 layoff round has began.

AT&T continues to slash jobs, destroy careers and negatively impact families. All the while, spending $25M on the Pebble Beach sponsorship. There's zero human connection between AT&T Leadership and those doing the real work. None!

You have got to be kidding me SF. You walk out of California and then advertise in a California you walked out of. A halftime show that even in California the spectators looked at each other in dismay. Not the SF I once knew. A very woke, Anti America, and lost its way company. SF did not learn from Budweiser. Values create wealth. Wealth does not create values. In short, your marketing is equal to your ethics and values. In the toilet.

Where and when will these new offices open that they mention on the RTO email ?

Kinda hard to imagine they will spend money on opening offices in the US

I’m being straightforward here: I’m not keeping my money in Fiserv anymore. In 2025, I tried to offset some of the losses by buying as we slid, hoping we’d stabilize. Looking at my vested RSUs now is just discouraging. In a single year, we lost nearly 75% of our value. I know it’s technically a paper loss, but it’s hard to see it as anything other than a disincentive.

We also haven’t seen meaningful insider investment from leadership. It feels like we’re in a defensive crouch — holding ground, cutting costs, and trying to ride out the storm. I still believe this company can turn things around, but 2025 took a lot of the loyalty out of me.

As we head into Tuesday’s announcement, all we can really do is hope together. With the lack of clarity and vision from the top, hope is the only thing we’ve been given.

Ahahaha, the people running this company lied to you and they hate you!

No point of layoffs if they replace with new people. So they won’t. They are going to try to reduce costs if they laid off people. Some people think that they be safe if they survive layoffs. So they keep asking on this site “are there any layoffs?” and participate in rumors about it. Even though you don’t get a layoff, your workload will increase. Believe me all this types of conversations and any decisions will just make the company sink.

Legit question 🤔 considering all these changes that are harming a once strong and proud company.

No matter who is to blame this is the greatest share destruction of a fortune 200 in the last decade. Mike and this leadership team is going to be under pressure to start showing results soon.

I’ve seen posts about Marketing and Global Distribution. Any others?

Nothing enrages me more than those mo-rons wearing the Eliza jacket.
You’d have to be a new level of 1diot
