Morale’s completely drained

I’ve never seen so many coworkers checked out at the same time. After the way this year’s gone, it’s hard to feel supported, valued, or even wanted here. People aren’t talking about growing with the company anymore, all they’re doing these days is comparing job postings.


I see nothing has changed

Left two years ago, just came back on this board to see if things have improved, and it's clear it's all exactly the same. They're still offshoring everything, thinning out US teams, and piling more jobs onto fewer people. My advice is to leave if you can. The grass truly is greener.


Inconsistent Meets year end and I’m still here

Honestly thought they would have dropped the axe months ago at this point. My IM rating was out of nowhere. I knew they basically cut everyone who wasn’t doing anything at all at this point and now have to find others to slash. Haven’t heard any concerns from my boss about performance since the year end review but am still expecting another bad rating based on what thier new process is. I’m guessing I have until September at the latest until they finally pull the trigger but just curious about everyone’s thoughts. Can’t wait until they finally do it and I never come back to this board again.


Layoffs have become too normal

I’m an employee who’s been through a few rounds now, and the strange part is how routine it’s started to feel. Once one layoff ends, people don’t really relax, they just start wondering when the next announcement’s coming. Most of us just keep working, keep quiet, and try not to draw attention. Sad.


230 people laid off

Mostly managers were affected

And you know what? For once, I'm okay with that. We have way, way, way too many layers of managers with barely any direct reports who never do anything useful. Getting rid of them will actually cut costs without affecting work in the least. I don't like layoffs, but for once I approve.

FIS Layoffs-Update

Layoffs are expected to accelerate this near into next as the company shifts to AI. Several "reorgs" in waves to be expected according to insiders close to SF. Interest rates are not coming down as quickly as expected and this is putting pressure on not being able to refinance the debt load at lower rates as wages pressures and benefit costs accelerate.


Stop

Stop the fear mongering on this site. We were assured that “ CDAO, CTO, and P&C Tech” would have massive layoffs: nothing. We were promised, bullied if even questioned the source of Fraud and AML having massive layoffs in April/May. Well April and May have passed.

The people who used to actually be in the know and leaked to this site have clearly been laid off. Since about last year zero predictions have been accurate.

Stop posting your theories. It only ki-ls the credibility of good sources. If you need to vent go to therapy.


Sorry news: no more available technicians to support your chips

After massive layoffs last few years, we are in serious shortage of workers that cannot make any good chips. It is worst than shortage of chips you can image

We don’t have enough workers to make our own chips working, not to mention about making good chips for customers. You probably have to wait for at least 2 or 3 years to get decent products if you are willing to pay more.

College graduate students refused to study chips or wanted to join Intel due to constant layoff threats

Food chain workers from other industries also refused to join due to its complexities and constant layoff cultures. They prefer to eat foods than to eat chips.

Low pay more work requirements not worth to stay or even making quick bucks than flipping a hamburger.

Constant stock prices manipulation to collect fees and taxes for big institutions

I QUIT !
Do YOU ?

AML Folk

Hey AML personnel, why are we letting them step all over us? Threatening to fire us if we don’t meet production. Implementing AI that doesn’t work. At the end of the day (well probably year) we will be laid off for the AI we are ultimately training. Let’s stop doing so much. We can only do what we can do!!! Layoffs are inevitable, and you know that.


Essential Industries Drive Job Growth Despite Layoffs

Layoffs have impacted specific industries like technology and media organizations. However, the broader job market continues to evolve with new demands. Demand remains strong in essential services, infrastructure development, and emerging technologies. Healthcare, artificial intelligence, skilled trades, and clean energy are key hiring sectors. This indicates a structural shift in the labor market, not a broad decline.
