I heard today from a HR source but wanted to ask here if true that management is now rethinking the 8 hr period. Can anybody confirm on this chatter? No trolls pl

Unemployment Benefits (When Quitting Verizon)???
Has anyone been able to get unemployment benefits when voluntarily quitting? Is this an option. Asked ChatGPT but it answers differently every time I ask it.
Anyone have any insight into what information TGT HR shares with future employers?
Do they only confirm dates of employment and titles/salaries or has anyone known of an instance where they shared more (like reason for termination)? Thanks!
How do they select who is being laid off?
Anyone with experience relating to this? Who makes the final call? Who puts the names on the list?
US - Layoffs Wednesday, October 29, 2025
WILL BE DONE BY AUTOMATED EMAIL
Not Tuesday 28!
MOST line managers don't know the details yet!
Info from HR friend.
Clearly a change from the previous company process.
HPE Romania outsourcing GFAO org
does anyone have any details about the so called "co-sourcing" venture HPE is planning with Deloitte in Romania? All I'm thinking it's a masked lay-off. HR announced Global Finance and Accounting Organization will move to Deloitte as part of a co-sourcing venture between the two companies. Considering if you get an offer to move you'd have to resign from HPE and then start on a probationary period with Deloitte, why does this seem like the perfect scheme to avoid paying compensations for layoffs?
New CEO announcement?
Who's expecting Mike to announce the new CEO's name today at the Fire Side chat?
Declined relocation in August. Severance ppwk delayed?
In August this year, I declined the substantial position change to relocate to a core location. It’s now the middle of October and I have yet to receive the severance package paperwork to sign. Any idea why such a long delay? Thanks.
Layoffs in PXT
Soon PXT will get their permanent RTO! AI automated HR.
No more US Employees
HR stated going forward there will no new US hires.
Manilla or India are the only choices.
How can a term become permanent
I keep hearing that terms I reno became permanent. Also heard throughout california. How can I become permanent? How does that work? My local said unlikely but I can confirm Rwno nevada did it a few months ago. What's the workaround? If they allowed it it should be the norm now.
I was laid off in March
I was laid off on March 5th of this year. At the skip-level meeting, my Director and HR said I could apply for any position within six months. Once I hit the six-month mark, I applied for three jobs and was rejected for all of them. Is it possible that HR lied, even though the layoff document clearly states I can reapply to any position after six months? I am afraid that my manager blocked me from getting rehired. How can I find out? Because if she did, I want to sue. I can not trust that woman, she smiles in your face and stabs you in the back.
Is this why so many HR managers have left
There’s lots of Exec HR managers leaving EM. Guess they were part of this cluster project to destroy morale and chop people and now they are running elsewhere before it implodes. Can’t wait to see how bad this turns out in about 3years time when the s hits the fan. What’s the bets DWW retires before it comes back to bite us
Pay and timecards after layoff?
I'm incredibly frustrated. I got the news last Wed, but my "official" last day is the 15th and they said that's when I'll receive the termination letter...Very annoyed because my paycheck this week was half of what it should have been, since I was immediately locked out of the system and couldn't submit a timecard last week. Really frustrating when you have daycare, bills, and life to pay for! Has anyone gone through HR and gotten their time in so pay isn't disrupted? I should be on the books paid for up until 10/15. I'm just loathing having to jump through all the hoops to actually speak to someone in HR...getting a hold of an actual person is such a PITA
Got a coffee chat invite from my manager and was blindsided by security and HR
My boss set up a casual coffee chat to catch up in one of the corner meeting rooms. Halfway through the conversation HR and security walks in and I’m told I’m being let go.
WTF is this cowardice move, at least have the decency to lay people off in a respectful manner
Job Bands
Does anyone know what the different band levels mean? Can’t seem to find any info on it, HR directed me to my LOB. If you are band 6 and go to 5 is that a promotion, do your benefits change? I saw a band 7 posting making more than a band 6.
Rehire after layoff
Is there a cool down period after layoff at Oracle. If I got terminated and collected my severance , how long before I get rehired ?
Back to a 5-point performance scale
No new ideas so let's just keep flip-doing back and forth on things that don't matter.
I'm sure there are gonna be a bunch of 2s given out, though, to send the message that Bill Brown thinks you su-k but we're not ready to fire you just yet.
HR Org Change Firm
Is BCBS is actively working with a consulting company that assisted with the previous round of layoffs? If so who?
Texas Work Force Solutions Denials
Is WFS even taking the time to read people's requests for accommodations? They are denying people with no explanation. How many cases are being sent straight to the trash can?
HR involvement in PIP
After being a Star Performer till mid year, I was handed a PIP for the latter half of the year and put in Groupo 5 and served PIP. Through out the PIP for 2 months, HR did not show up even once, and after 60 days, I was terminated with notice period.
Again, HR was not involved at all. Is this normal?
Did BNY pay you interest on vacation payout? For MA ex-employees
FYI for ex-BNY Massachusetts employees…
In Massachusetts, if an employer fails to pay your accrued vacation time when your employment ends, you are entitled to treble damages on the unpaid amount, not just the interest on the late payment. This penalty, known as a treble damages award, is a powerful remedy under the Massachusetts Wage Act. If the employer eventually pays the vacation time late, the employer may have to pay trebled interest on that late payment, but this is separate from the treble damages for the unpaid wages.
What is the Massachusetts Wage Act?
Under the Massachusetts Wage Act, MGL c. 149, § 148, earned and unused vacation time is considered wages.
When an employee is terminated, all final wages, including vacation pay, must be paid on the day of termination.
If an employee resigns, the payment is due by the next regular payday.
I do not believe our crack 1-800 HR people team are following this law for MA employees…
High time
High time that emp revolt by inundating people team with reports of unfair and discriminatory practices all around if infact that is what is occuring. Inundate both human resources and local senators and Dol...appears careers and lives are being destroyed through emp exploitation based on feedback here. when business is good there is no good reason for such low ethical and frankly unlawful means.
Severance Agreement timeline?
Husband laid off over two weeks ago from Dell and still getting excuses about paperwork delays. We're in a limbo holding pattern. No idea of the insurance/cobra (they also cut off our insurance a week before he was laid off). Nearly 19 years of work...to treat him like this.
Lists are final?
Read an HR post that they were due yesterday, is that confirmed?
Something wicked this way comes
One of our core values is 'Embrace Change '. And you will be penalized if you don't. Any concerns voiced about the negative impact of some changes get you referred to HR for a talking to about teamwork.
It does not seem like they are as concerned about being a great place to work for all as they are about putting on a show about it. A real shame as they used to be great.
Fear Mongering
Stop letting the supervisors and managers in here fear you into not doing the survey, or giving false good scores. The systems registers if you took it but the answers are anonymous. Unless you wrote out very specific details or a situation and drop names they will not know it’s you. They won’t give you a bigger bonus, they won’t give you a better yearly review. Be honest and if you fear retaliation reach out to HR and document, document, document. If you want a better work place SPEAK UP! You can’t cry and moan the environment is cr-ppy if you’re going to willing lay in it.
Layoffs
P24 seems like a golden age now that Project Mongoose is in effect. Instead of (for most countries) voluntary redundancy, your name and role are on a list. Works council stated this will be an annual thing. So much for the feeling of community at SAP. Also when did the T4 level become poison? Speaking informally with HR T4 positions are not really sought after. T1, T2 highly sought. It's brutal out here now.
RIFS
Any news of any layoffs in HR?
Anonymous disability assistance is not anonymous
I applied for a software program for my disability. The HR site said my team or boss would not be notified - it's confidential. Fast forward a year and boss takes an accounting of all software charged to team account. "Hey, what's this? It's assigned to you?"
Layoffs in Q4 2025
Rumors are getting strong that there will be big layoffs in Q4 2025. HR is preparing the lists. Each VP got a target number for their department. It will be a sad Xmas season for a LOT of people.
Sounds like it is going to be a quarterly thing from now.
Glad they are finally addressing the problem with all the under performers.
Contractor Misconduct and Labor Law Violations
We currently have a contingent contractor from "1nF0$y$" working in our department. His role appears limited to issuing written instructions to permanent staff, and he does not contribute to any other operational tasks. His primary engagement seems to be attending private meetings with the Senior Director.
The Senior Director originally from India and now a U.S. resident through an H-1B visa followed by marriage to a fellow Senior Manager in the same department is reportedly receiving commissions for onboarding contractors from "1nF0$y$". Multiple sources have raised concerns about this arrangement.
Contractors brought in under this setup often exhibit inappropriate behavior, acting with undue authority and attempting to influence permanent staff. When questioned or held accountable, they respond with hostility and escalate complaints to the Senior Director. In turn, the Senior Director convenes meetings targeting the permanent staff and delivers reprimands, creating a hostile and retaliatory work environment.
These practices raise serious concerns regarding compliance with U.S. labor laws and ethical standards. Immediate intervention is warranted from Human Resources, College Relations, Ethics, and Legal departments to investigate and address these potential violations.
Who will take over HR?
Buried at the bottom of leadership moves happening with Wealth is the news that Mona Vernon is coming over to Wealth to "focus on customer and product offerings." This is happening in mid-December.
Will the replacement be internal or external? Will they be able to boost moral?
HR Mind Games Getting Old
The constant sprinkling of RTO letters and little groups of layoffs paired with zero information is exhausting.
They should just do it and get it over with. All this game playing just motivates workers to stay out of fear of the job market or out of spite to get all the money they’re owed.
Moving internally
What is the waiting period before one can move?
HR using AI to rank and promote us.
Heard there are very limited promotions this year and that HR is making the decisions based on data. No input from supervisors.
Inform HR or manager
I’m leaving, I just want to know do I inform HR or my manager? My department is toxic, stressful and chaotic.
