Defeated, disappointed and everything in between

I live in a state that no longer has a hub, I cannot move, so I am unable to get a claims job, since claims is hybrid my job was approved for the exit program, almost 20 years with this company Im losing my job.. its a very odd feeling to be in this position as im sure it is with so many others. I was a very loyal employee and this is how my job ends. Its quite sad.. defeated doesnt even discribe how i feel...


Project Phoenix AI transformation

Just got off a call where Project Phoenix will be implemented- first in back office functions previously outsourced to India, PR, etc. Next will be the sales force. Strange that optimizing internal processes are the first targets instead of improving the state relationship but here we are. You will see me exit Gainwell soon. Good luck to everyone- layoffs are incoming across the board.


Some top brass planning exit

Multiple members of Belk’s top brass are quietly and quickly planning an exit strategy from the company. Some choosing to stay in the retail industry, while others choosing the leave the industry altogether. Retirement is a viable option for some. Know that business model of belk is antiquated and unsustainable.


Individuals exiting Alcon, voluntary or involuntary?

Can anyone comment on what, if any, is Alcon's "package" for employees who they would like to, or decide to, get rid of? Not people impacted by a structured RIF or layoff like we just had. Just those "one off" exits that happen all year long.

That could be PIP'd and fired, or outright fired for performance (not cause). Or "encouraged" to leave: can the employee "negotiate" an exit?


Boss fired

Last day today at AT&T - Got my boss fired after filing a complaint 6 months ago. Called AT&T’s hotline , filed a complaint, provided proof of harassment and discrimination and teammates who witnessed it helped out also. Recorded every teams call with an external phone and provided all recordings to HR investigation team.

Leaving the company with a 6 figure payout. Entire org is toxic!!

Good luck everyone and don’t be afraid to speak out.


Find the nearest exit NOW

I know the conventional wisdom is to wait it out and force the company to pay you in severance. But, they'll try to deny it to you by every means they have. You just have to ask yourself one question. Is it worth it?

You'll be faced with a ticking clock of the severance checks stopping while you job hunt. No getting away from that.

Just start looking now and taking interviews with sick days or doctor's appointments and then just...leave. No two weeks' notice. No exit interview. Just tell them you quit and walk out. You don't owe them anything at all.

You'll feel great! You'll be leaving this lousy job and starting new one. No better feeling in the world. Better than waiting around in the stress test lab wondering when your number is up.

They are actively trying to exploit you in every conceivable way.

Just. Leave. Now.


DO NOT LET YOUR DEVICE GET LOCKED

After I was told that I was let go, my OT accounts got disabled in around two to two and half hrs. Since I had not locked my device or logged out, I could continue to access my local personal files and upload them to cloud storage. If you have any personal files in Core Share (due to Win 11 migration), upload those immediately as once the OT account is disabled, you can't access those files.

As soon as I locked my session, I could no longer access the laptop because my user profile was disabled, and only the OT Admin can access it now. So, DO NOT LET YOUR DEVICE GET LOCKED till you have all your personal files uploaded.


Upcoming PDS cycle

Ready for another round?

Over 300 people have already left since the September 29 announcement, projects are scarce, meaningful work even scarcer and the long-term outlook for Canada couldn’t be clearer. Naturally, this seems like the perfect moment to proceed with the ranking cycle.

For those unfamiliar with the tradition: everyone gets ranked against colleagues worldwide, the curve must be filled and a pre-determined slice of the population will inevitably land in the “Needs Significant Improvement” category because nothing says modern leadership like deciding in advance how many underperformers you need.

From there the process is beautifully efficient: a helpful Performance Improvement Plan, a quiet exit and the reassurance that this isn’t a layoff just the system working exactly as designed.

Given the current morale and the steady stream of departures, the timing is almost poetic. If anything, the exercise should help clarify priorities for the few remaining optimists.

After all, when the future of the business in Canada looks this bright, someone will surely be eager to relocate to Edmonton and help keep the Strathcona refinery dream alive.


Executives leaving

Two of our executives have recently announced they are departing PNC. One is our Corporate Responsibility Officer and the other is our Chief Information Security Officer. Though we may never know the real reason they are leaving, I find it very ironic that they have both put in their notice shortly before the mandatory five day return to office takes affect.

They are two very highly respected Individuals and it’s sad to see them both leaving. Great talent write out the door.
