Managements that Respects Employees Would Have Done Better
The RTO is a bunch of Horse_sh*t, if your team is not all in the same office.
But speaking as someone with 20+ years of experience, I learned a lot from watercooler conversations, hearing a hallway conversations or people in the next cube discussing something. New people working remotely miss out on a ton of extra learning. It's bad for them and it's bad for the company.
So, a respectful exec team would have been thoughtful about their ask.
Does it benefit you and your team if you are all together in the same office? When the answer is Yes, you should put your big boy/girl pants on and get your a-s into the office.
If you are all truly masters at what you do, you do not need to be in the office unless you are hiring young people to learn your craft and then yes, you should be in the office.
If the people being hired to eventually replace you on on a different continent; f'em.
PR announcement
Apparently there is a big PepsiCo brand PR announcement tomorrow. Anyone know what it could be?
Look at your manager's calendar
Any weird blocks or interesting meeting titles today or tomorrow? I see one called program transitions later today.
I’m hearing people got the news
What happened? Can anyone share how it went down?
Layoff updates 1/22/2026
Any updates ? It would have been done by now.
My thoughts on Chubak and his changes
When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king; the palace becomes a circus.
Things have gone downhill ever since he started at Edward Jones.
ECS
Any word on layoffs in ECS?
Did people really think hiring all those former BBT rejects was going to work
Its time to short this pig down to a single digit mid-et.
Eli Lilly Virginia
Some anti-layoff in Virginia..

Did those in Minneapolis get any remote exceptions?
I’ve been in the Minneapolis office and it’s so empty. Are people taking PTO or did some managers actually care and give waivers due to the extreme cold and everything happening here? Personally my manager has not even pretended to care one bit or said anything
Wellmed layoff update here
Let’s keep this thread for Wellmed only layoff updates
HouseCalls Updates
Please keep this thread alive by sharing any updates or new information. Let’s keep each other updated.
Demotion and acceptance shameful
This layoff has a special experience. What a shameless Sr Director, Director and Sr Manager taking any position. These people are taking low level positions. Shame shame. What is your comment??
What's the truth ??RTO
Email tomorrow? North America only?
July or September?
Does anyone know anything for sure ?
Gates up or down?
Are the gates at the FSC up or down today?
Redeem your Standout points now - before it’s too late
For anyone who has a large balance of Standout points (Point Perks program) you may want to use them now, just in case you get whacked over the next few weeks.
Anyone from FOPS yet?
Aside from managers, any FOPS techs get hit yet?
Did they announce a VERP this year?
Did they announce a VERP this year?
I know they did it in 2023 (I accepted), and it also happened in 2020 - pretty quietly with COVID going on... seems to happen every 3 - 4 years.
Layoff Count?
Wondering how many folks have lost their jobs. OPKS HQ hit pretty hard.
Mike out as chairman
What do you all think of Mikes email this morning that he won't won't serve as chairman after his term is up? I got to believe that the rest of the board and Ammit wanted it that way. Maybe paving the way for a sale?
In Office Requirement
I am considering joining Chase in the US, but is it full 5 days in office? I am coming from another company that is not fully 5 days in office. Do they track attendance here strictly?
AVP
I was hired as an AVP and I see ridicule associated with AVP. What is the backstory?
Today is the day for me…
I thought yesterday was it but I think today is ICs turn. Have a 10 min call with my director titled “org changes”.
Open Seating is Failing. LT has no ideas
The Turtle Response
• A Harvard Business School study found that face-to-face interaction drops by 70% in open layouts.
• This is due to the Turtle Response: when exposed visually from all angles, the amygdala triggers a low-level threat state.
• People retreat into digital shells—headphones, screens—to protect cognitive resources.
Nothing makes sense anymore
The strategy, who they chose to lay off, demotions...unless the goal is to ki-l morale and destroy the company. Then, things make perfect sense.
Are we an oil company or a PSMS training company
New business line announced! PSMS for the win! How many people and hours are spent on PSMS? We should have a separate job code for PSMS. The PSMS monstrosity just keeps growing bigger and bigger and bigger.
Relying on cx adoption of t-life AI Bu******
The next time I walk a customer through a Docusign I will ask if they have the T-Mobile app if not I’ll remind them that we are all getting canned so they better start figuring sh-t out.
The “un-carrier” is dead.
The "Un-carrier" is dead. You have successfully metamorphosed into the exact corporate utility you built a brand on mocking.
Your recent pivot isn't innovation; it’s a liquidation of your own values.
Ladies and gentlemen. Let’s look at the scoreboard:
• You posted $11.3 billion in net income and shoveled $14.4 billion into stock buybacks, yet still slashed 5,000 jobs. That isn't economic necessity; it’s strictly avarice.
• You reneged on your "Price Lock" guarantees for legacy plans, trading decades of consumer trust for a short-term margin boost.
• You are inflating bills with discretionary "Regulatory Program" junk fees, adopting the very tactics you used to ridicule AT&T and Verizon for.
• You are dismantling human contact, ki-ling channels like Apple Business Chat to force customers behind your "IntentCX" AI wall.
• While avoiding headlines, you are currently executing "quiet layoffs" of tenured engineers, cec, cx, and sales teams in 2026 just to polish your efficiency ratios.
Oh, and you aren’t done yet? You still have teams waiting to find out if they have a job in the next couple of days and upending people’s lives without remorse.
You aren't disrupting the industry anymore. You are just extracting value from it until there is nothing left.
You’re no longer the Rebel Alliance. You’ve become the Empire.
Trying to silence others when they won't pay bills
Geoffrey is trying to use his connections after being paid 7 million dollars to not let others speak about how Saks Global won't pay bills. They will try to target this page next. They do not want information about their conduct.
Facebook.com/nmnewscoverage was a source for info on their mal intent. . Hopefully it returns as it was an education page. Free speech on them is needed
On a T-Mobile Tuesday?!
Guess they gotta pay for the celebs in the commercials somehow.. sorry guys, this su-ks. Company has gone downhill ever since legere left.
