Layoffs hit everyone now

There was a time when only underperformers were at risk, but that’s long gone. You can get a pat on the back today and be cut tomorrow. It’s stressful to always wonder if you’ll be next, and it makes showing loyalty feel pointless. Hopefully, the job market improves and we can all leave before being kicked out.


Network Organization L1/L2 Layoffs 4Q

Sat in on my L3 call given he was out PTO. AVP has announced network wide large cut of L1/L2s across Anatomy, Leggy, and Greendick organizations. Capex/Expense being cut for automation given known reduction in workforce. End of payroll is before EOY. No preferential treatment for Dallas and Atlanta employees. Sorry to those that recently moved.

RTO is old news. Yes we have returned to BAU cuts.


If We’re Calling BS, Let’s Start With Verizon’s Own Playbook

Fair enough, Leslie and Angie. But honestly, the real BS at Verizon hasn’t been the outside noise — it’s been the inside story. Years of layoffs, a wireline business that’s basically gone, and leadership that’s lost the plot. That’s what people are reacting to.

So what’s the deal with these pin heads?

So did all updates stop at 2020 ? What happened everyone scared to share information ? What the company has an NDA everyone or something ?

I heard these weirdos trying to down size some are sharing it some are not, some are trying to be sneaky about it.


It will get really bad around here

The worst part is knowing this won’t be quick. It’ll drag on and put everyone more on edge by the day. Most of us are just clinging to the hope of keeping our jobs, because opportunities out there are slim to none. That alone will fuel frustration and anxiety. I’m not looking forward to it, neither for myself, nor for all of us who’ll be stuck in a horrible atmosphere that could last a long time.


CFPB Warns Staff Of Possible Layoffs As Funding Cap Looms

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) warned employees last week that workforce reductions may be necessary to meet new Congressional funding limits, according to an internal email described in press reports. The message asked staff to keep their résumés updated and noted that a formal restructuring remains on hold pending court outcomes, but that a reduction in force is under evaluation to align with the smaller budget, Reuters reported.

Rumor: Upcoming layoffs in Fraud department

There’s a heavy feeling of dread and uncertainty in the fraud call center. Employees are posting out to other jobs or going out on leave. Directors and upper leadership are silent but we know they must notice what’s going on too. I hate to feed into a rumor but the silence is loud.


Q3 Dermie Lie Fest (Right?)

Please mark your calendars for the next Dermie PŌM event, which will take place on September 25th. Our esteemed CFO will be delivering remarks on various topics, including his increasing personal wealth and the effectiveness of the PŌM model in leveraging costs without relying on an experienced U.S. workforce. He will also address how we thrive together with strict RTO policy controls, seating assignment charts and the sudden non-performance of 25% of the BNY global workforce

Furthermore, he will convey his deep personal regret regarding the strategic realignment and why it means that your job and mine may no longer be needed. This should be an interesting and informative session, so I encourage everyone to attend and listen to what he has to say.


If there was ever a time to offer voluntary displacements...

The bank wants its on-shore employees to be gone.

Many (most?) of these same employees hate their jobs but are unlikely to leave due to the current job market. It's hard to spend all day in a job you hate and then find the mental/emotional energy after getting home, dinner, etc to job hunt. It's not impossible, but difficult.

Enter severance.

If the bank is worried about high performers leaving, they can stop worrying. Disengaged employees are not high performers. People perform highly when they like their job.

Nearly all employees that would take the voluntary buyout are exactly the employees the bank wants gone anyway.

The bank keeps hoping that people will leave on their own. It's not going to happen. Wells needs to take lead on this.

Until then, the armies of unhappy employees will continue to do the bare minimum. I don't understand how the bank sees this as the better option.


Marketing Data is taking WAY too long with layoffs

Due to both offshoring and reorgs, this org finds itself overstaffed.

It's incredible how long this is taking to correct.

Most will retain their jobs, but getting rid of the relatively few unproductive folks shouldn't be this difficult.

Wells would rather continue paying salaries, benefits, and bonuses to these people 🤷 🤡


New Job Postings but with Much Lower Pay

After CDW basically wiped out a department and lost years of expertise and experience, they are now re-hiring for those roles, but at near entry-level pay. That is the strategy--layoff experienced coworkers who have been dedicated to CDW for 10 years or more and bring in low-paid workers in order to ensure executive bonuses stay high.

This is so short-term in thinking, but many of the executives are nearing retirement age, so they are are at no financial risk for these decisions. They've been doing it for 3+ years and there have been no signs that approach is driving growth for the company.

It's a horrible strategy, but leadership doesn't seem to see the obvious.
