Even AI is in on the futility

Even AI is in on the joke Dell has become

original parody rap)

I’m drivin’ in at dawn through the valley of the shadow of Death,
Where the layoffs stalk the highways like they’re huntin’ for my breath.
Every mile feels cursed, every billboard’s a lie,
Talkin’ “culture,” talkin’ “family,” while they watch us bleed dry.

They say “We’re building greatness” while they gut us from inside,
And the only thing that’s growing is the fear we try to hide.
We’re ghosts in the hallways, survivors of the purge,
And the bosses call it “progress” while they watch the profits surge.

We’re living in Michael’s Paradise —
Where loyalty’s a vice.
They preach about their values,
But we’re the sacrifice.

I walk into the office and the silence hits like doom,
Half the desks abandoned like a corporate tomb.
They tell us “Do more with less,” like it’s some holy command,
But you can’t build a future when you’re losing every hand.

The managers are trembling, the directors look scared,
’Cause they know the next email means none of us are spared.
They call it “realignment,” they call it “strategic,”
But the truth is pretty simple — it’s heartless and anemic.

Still living in Michael’s Paradise —
Where the workers pay the price.
They say we’re all a family,
But they don’t treat us very nice.

Now the CEO’s on stage with that polished little grin,
Talkin’ “innovation,” talkin’ “vision,” while the walls are caving in.
He’s flyin’ private jets while we’re drowning in the grind,
And the only thing he’s cutting is the people left behind.

So here’s to the ones who keep the whole thing alive,
Who walk through Death’s valley just to barely survive.
We’re angry, we’re tired, and we’re done bein’ polite —
If they won’t care about the workers, we’ll bring our own damn light.

Still living in Michael’s Paradise —
But we’re done payin’ the price.
If they won’t stand beside us,
We’ll reclaim our sacrifice.


At least somebody is speaking out

Evangeline Lilly is blasting The Walt Disney Company over the layoffs at Marvel, which saw their workforce reduced by about 8%.

“Shame On You for turning your back on the people who built the power you are now using to throw them away,” Lilly captioned her Instagram post.

Someone asked me recently if they should take a job at Exxon

I told them no, not unless truly desperate. The hours are long, the pressure is constant, and the company treats employees like they're disposable. Take a job here and expect to have no life outside of work. And to think that I used to recommend this place to people.


I really thought I was safe

For the past year I was cruising. Top ratings, visible work, direct revenue impact. I thought I was as safe as anyone could be. Then a scheduled call a couple of weeks ago happened and just like that, I was gone. So for anyone at PayPal who thinks their performance or relationships will protect them, think again. We're all just numbers. When someone up high decides your time is up, that's it.

Burn the house down

Putting this here to see if anyone notices/cares to comment. I’m a Uniondale employee, one of about 200. Various business lines where most are vestiges of the old Dreyfus business. It’s clear the greater corporation wants to reduce headcount by forcing this move while offering no financial incentive. The commute from Long Island to NYC requires a train and subway. We’re looking at an estimated $5,000 cost for that, nothing less than 90 minutes, some will have over 2 hours one way. These are good dedicated employees who are being tossed out. Sure, the jobs aren’t eliminated (yet) or offshored (yet), and as someone here posted AI = All India. The transition will be difficult at best. We’ll see if it’s tolerable, but no one really seems to care. The announcement was heartless, an 8AM teams meeting where KB proved again to be soulless. He read a prepared statement that took all of 4 minutes. That’s it. Most groups didn’t even have senior management in house to… well to lead by example. But we will do the purposeless exercise of feedback, complete the peak on surveys, attend town halls in order to hear how fantastic everything is. Sad that a corporation of this magnitude won’t offer assistance to keep people happily employed. Oh wait, I just received an email from KB titled Uniondale Office - Helpful Resources. It contained two links. One for a commuter benefits program where BK hires a company to explain/manage your ability to have a maximum pretax (fed only) contribution of $340/month to cover commuting costs. Something but very very minor. And don’t forget that our taxes will now increase because NYC taxes will apply. Another 2-2 percent salary increase would go a long way in meeting the extra cost as well as supporting the idea that BNY cares about its employees. In reality leadership cares about the next McKinsey project (how’s P-M treating you?) and publicity for the CEO. All hail the smirking emperor who had a massive pay increase on the broken backs of his overworked employees. Let’s see how they react to people agreeing to move but resign at the last minute.


More cuts at Shopify

This time it’s revenue operations and customer support. We all know this is tied to AI, and it’s ridiculous how little anyone in charge actually seems to care about customers. AI has already proven to be pretty awful when it comes to customer support across the board. You can’t scroll through Twitter or any other platform without seeing people asking how to reach a real person at one company or another. Welcome to your future, Shopify customers.

Any truth to any of this?

One person says 500 let go last week
another says 2500

One says may 28th - 30% being let go
last month it was April 30th - 30% being let go

Can anyone please be truthful?

This site is worse than facebook for crying out loud...

Please post facts and stop trolling - yeah, I know REAL big ask on here!

RBC Forecasts Stable Canadian Employment Despite Workforce Shrink

RBC Economics analyzed Canada's labor market conditions. They anticipate a modest gain of 25,000 jobs in April. This gain should reduce the unemployment rate to 6.6%. Shrinking labor force growth means less employment growth is needed. RBC expects gradual improvements in the job market this year.

Congrats! Most Active Page on Layoff.

I like to check in from time to time and see all the juicy gossip around this disgraceful company you call TransUnion. How's it feel to sit on pins and needles waiting for those layoffs? My currently doesn't have one entry on this site. As a past employee of TransUnion who put in 20 plus years of service to be axed by lay off which NO notice, not two week notice just a phone call between a director and HR that my position wasn't available but I worked from 11 pm to 2 am the night/morning previously when was my part no longer required was my only question? The company run by CC and his Neustar buddies.

Just as a reminder for those who work at TU. Quantity over quality when you work. Take your FTO as many as you can, at least 10 weeks. Take those long breaks Those two days in the office do the minimum, the 3 days WFH make sure you run errands, hit those gyms, quality time with families because CC and his teams don't care about you. You are just a W2 at the end of the day. Work those 8 hours and go home get off teams turn phone off. Unless you on-call then make sure you have phone only turned on during that time otherwise - manage your time, NOT TU TIME.
