From where I'm sitting, just relying on layoffs and nothing else to make the numbers look better is a plan to go out of business. The new CEO isn't solving problems, he's just accelerating the decline. Watching the company I once cared about fall apart like this isn't just frustrating, it's genuinely sad.

No wonder CK sends out a 7pm email on OUR RESPONSIBILITY and COMMITMENT..
LOLzzz
Don’t Trump know the defense companies work for stockholders not the nation ?

Captains Log 01092026. What a joke with this return to office mandate. There is zero consistency.

Workplace Excellence weeks have been removed from the calendar for 2026. That means you have to be in office 3 days a week even during holiday weeks.

Getting back $.70 on the dollar for everything Stankey touches is a win. ATT Campus in this day and age. What products does ATT pitch and for what reasons? You can't make up just how extreme the company's do as I say customers but not as I do.

There should have just been layoffs for underperformance. Hiring someone from McDonald’s, during the pandemic, and sending them back because they never break 30% kpis… just layoff people who don’t work. Why do I have to pay for it?!

I am laid off. technology lob

Have GC and PC been laid off yet?

TPG closes in on £1bn-plus deal for GP patient records system supplier
The buyout firm is close to buying Optum UK, which supplies the systems used by NHS doctors to manage patient records, from US giant UnitedHealth, Sky News learns.

Go on…be honest

I'm curious whether anyone still with the Company has heard whether EER offers were received by anyone in the mail after the recent 4K - 6K headcount/cost cutting announcement was made as part of the Q425 earnings call. The reason I ask is because it would be similar timing to what happened when the last 4K - 6K headcount / cost cutting announcement was made as part of the Q422 earnings call. The last time, EER offers were mailed out in early January, right after the holiday shutdown.

The TA leadership is pathetic. They cut recruiters and support but save all managers and are left with a group an individuals who can’t lead, make decisions or train a team. They are great at things that do not matter like monthly or holiday meeting that do little for morale it usually pi---s people off.

Let’s look at these managers, one saved manager, manages BRGs. The BRGs did just fine with no manager. Salary $130k

The conductor manager - runs conductor recruiting. You just laid off the whole conductor recruiting team, but kept her.

The mechanic and engineering manager, we don’t and haven’t hired one of those roles in months. Also tech and Corporate- also, not a single hire in months. In addition she’s always on FMLA.

The top TA managers were kept even though they haven’t made a solid decision or anything productive in years.

These layoffs weee driven by friendships instead of production and once again CSX has proven to be burden in Jacksonville instead of a community partner that cares about its place in the city.

Stay away from this place

Anyone know the extent of today's layoffs?

Do you think they track us going to the office or not? What do you guys think/do?

Optum purchased a large home health group plenty of positions posted.

Follow the money.

This begs the question of how budgets were managed in such a way to not only reduce bonuses and promotions but eventually cause mass layoffs.

So can we assume that we will get a bonus this year since the company has money to tear down and Build a brand new campus??

Has anyone been rehired after the 60 day period ? Not necessarily in the position you were in before. There were some very good people let go and It would be good to rehire them. Or are the laid off workers untouchable.

RJ reign begins.

The left overs are ki-ling it!

$1.37 a share, maybe time to lower that cost average?

Can you f&cks get to working.

Lots of projects are made stagnant with word "No New initiatives" or approvals required.
These projects are the major targets for upcoming layoffs

Are announcements going out today to Store Managers? Did it already happen? Any updates?

To those who choose to stay, good luck for the next 5 years until this sh&! Show starts all over again.

No change and same old BS recycled..

I have zero hope from this company or any change. Time to find new job..

These executives are tone deaf

Whatever happened to the company survey with the results that bad that they didn’t even share it with anybody

Hi, anyone out there know if there are any changes or elimination on management positions?

For those who are managers what is being said about the absolutely dismal state of rhe company and the rock bottom morale? Productivity will be at an all time low as no one cares at all anymore.

If it's anything like the posts that are already on here from their meetings, then I guess today we are all in for a real treat...

Thoughts on the new CEO? I’m happy to hear he has extensive insurance experience. Wonder if he has any thoughts on work from home.

Offer letter states if you decline you might be put in a redeployment pool, does anyone know what that means?

They're part of the old regime, and complicit in a lot of the things that FB did to the company. Are they still there?

2025 was a harsh and bitter year of layoffs and departures from Corel. Most notably the Vice President & Principal Architect of Parallels left after rearchitecting Parallels for success. The worst part is Christa takes credit for the success of the product line without mentioning his name. Also Senior Vice President of Product and Engineering and the Vice President Of Engineering decided they'd rather not report Christa Quarles CEO at Parallels & Corel due to poor decisions affecting revenue and layoffs of software engineers.

Layoffs and firings are spread across the Canada, US and Mauritius. Directors and managers were made to layoff their entire teams, then they themselves were laid-off. Specifically the Product teams have been hit very hard. Staff turn-over in Mauritius is very high amongst those who are native to the country.

Christa Quarles an American business executive, she has shown zero expert knowledge as a CEO who knows how to manage a company. Christa lead the change of the Corel brand to Alludo in 2022. As of December 2025, Alludo is gone as the brand name, Corel has been returned to keep the focus on Corel branded products. Millions of dollars wasted. No announcements provided as to why

There are two chief of staffs and one executive assistant. Yet the product team have have been decimated by layoffs as has the marketing team.

Christa Quarles CEO of Corel has run out of friends to hire. There are continued complaints from customers of shady business practices associated with the quiet subscription model campaign. Now we wait in 2026 for the next layoffs.

Are we sure it's even happening?

As someone who is not an employee but is worried, I'd appreciate if you all can share what's happening day to day. Hoping this thread continues, I am just initiating for today .
