#cto

Was in the tech side of 1515 and heard rumor the CTO is leaving?

Is it the streaming CTO (he is gone I thought already) or the CBS CTO?

This place is so confusing.

No description needed

Have you delivered a single new product since you became CTO?? In the last 3 years??

Reduced existing prod incidents???

Have your directives brought any improvements???
Have you improved anything at all???

I heard nobody else is being laid off in this round, has that been confirmed?

Does this mean Robbie "I look mahvelous in my hoodie and sneakers" Thomas soon takes over to be IBM CCO (Chief Cheerleading Officer)?

He is the absolute worst CTO of all time.

Do they bring in a lot of money? The total comp without stocks is going for 200$k+ for AI roles [i8 and above]

I'm thinking of internally applying but can't seem to shake the feeling there's a catch I'm missing.

Is this department prone to layoffs ? Any thoughts ?

Since John Roese has been here, what has his team of overpaid pontificators ever produced? What revenue have they delivered?

T Mobile never had a terrible CTO like John Saw. He has destroyed our organization to a shell of what it was under the previous CTOs. We have lost serious talent and expertise under his leadership.
When he was CTO of Sprint, he almost drove that company to bankruptcy with poor decisions and leadership. After that fiasco, why is he still CTO at T Mobile?
Fire John Saw and save T Mobile.

Some people may already know this others are finding this out the hard way but the CTO last year in October gave managers under her the Go Head to find a way to start firing people. In recent months many people have started coming under scrutiny by Frontline managers who are writing them up for performance hits even though that manager is removing that person from work thus causing them not to meet performance goals or other setting up for failure activities. WF under the CTO has become a popularity campaign and if you are not liked on a personal level these Frontline managers and executives play the high school gossip games to get rid of you now. In the last few months I saw them fire multiple people who've been at Wells Fargo from 5 years to 30 years. This new senior leadership is not about keeping and retaining talent they're about saving money and unfortunately they are in the mindset, trained to believe that Americans cost too much, and so they have laid out an ambitious project goal to have the Indian workers operationalize AI and AI will in turn replace the American workers. While many lines of business focus on trying to fire people to trim down their teams to the minimal number possible for Frontline managers to have so they are not fired. Be wary of those managers that want you to work over 8 hours a day 5 days a week and more well not compensating you or rewarding you in some way for the hard work you're doing. This new leadership has been told to brutalize the workers in this fashion to create a micromanage and hostile work environment to force people to quit as well.

BD has turned into a circus of nincompoops , seemingly united by one goal: destroying what used to be a great company. It started at the top with the CEO, followed by a chain of DEI hires, each worse than the last, culminating in the collapse of TGS. The irony is that the CTO/CIO doesn’t even realize that he/she’s being manipulated by her VPs.

How long do I have? Im in CTO. Never got that rating before. Basically the rating said I’m good at my job but don’t take initiative blah blah blah. I knew it was coming. Don’t care, ready to be done with this place. Do I have until summer at least?

Two big exits in two weeks. Honestly feels like things might finally be moving in the right direction. Really hoping the unannounced / undecided LSS interim is the one we’re all secretly pulling for. And that today's announced CTO interim doesn’t end up permanent. Who's the next one to go?

Utter waste of time and money. Intel needs a real credible CTO who actually understands the technology that is vital for Intel's future.

MB, CTO is on the move!

In today's all hands meeting, the CTO pretty much said Citi will follow the lines of Amazon and Meta and will be laying off people. He didn't say specific numbers and exactly when but the message to me sounds like there will be layoffs coming.

It's coming for you tomorrow. Those who have been waiting for it, hopefully you get it. Those that want to survive, I'll pour one out for you! Good Luck.

Very worried about what’s going on. Since the new CTO joined many Head of XYZ have left. The culture feels worse. Product quality has dropped. More customers are leaving because of bad product quality. The CTO has also pushed out many. That is very serious.
The share price keeps falling. Do they know something we don’t? Is the CTO making things worse? Is this company in trouble? What does this mean for our jobs? Very worried.

From yesterday’s post ,so that this gets more traction
@OP AI officer
So long as SK remains in charge of Intel AI, and for that matter, so long as he remains in a senior position inside Intel, I don’t think there is any chance. One must question LBT‘s judgment in assigning AI to somebody who has been proven to be a completely inept leader.

Every day I walk into my new Lenox location I can barely contain the smile that is chiseled on my face from smiting that nothing loser Legg. He really thought his virtue signaling, progressive plan was a slam dunk to get rid of me and my kind. Wrong again pompous a-s! Like the rest of the C-Suite millionaire misfits, you failed to remove me from the ranks with the musical chairs and hoop jumping hunger games.
You took your shot and now it’s our turn to make a monkey’s a-s out of you. Please share with us if you had to provide updates with Stink and tell him the bad news about how much it would cost for building out the offices in Atlanta. I bet that didn’t go so well did it? You may have assumed more of us would fold but now we’re sticking it to your worthless power point slides. Best of all, gone is the dream of adding “DEI Warrior” as accomplishments now that Trump is in office. The shiny gold DEI star must now be removed with the attempt to scrub your RTO follies from the internet to hide the dirty agenda. Not on our watch monkey.
