Payout

Just wondering: I remember an old coworker asking and I don't recall the answer. Do we get our 5 weeks vacation in the 2nd year of our 104 weeks termination pay? I cannot find the answer in our Leg T CWA contract. Also, I wonder if I can call in sick in the 103rd week of payout and then go on paid disability for 6 months. Would I need to file FMLA? Am I entitled to any more entitlements?

Parental Leave

Hi everyone. I'm currently experiencing soft pressure from leadership to not take my full 16 weeks of parental leave. My wife will begin cancer treatment shortly after birth and I already have a special needs boy to go along with this newborn.

I've been told "well, how will we promote you at the mid-year if you're on leave?"

I could definitely use the pay increase, but everything from leadership has made me distrust them. I know the right answer is to take my full leave and probably look for a new job while on leave (not at a core site).

I guess I'm just looking for some pep talks around not feeling guilty about leaving my already short-staffed team even more short staffed.


Good Bye F5

I liked to say it was a good experience - it wasn't.

I'd liked to say that we helped each other thrive - we didn't

I'd like to say that F5 puts out new and innovative products - they don't

I'd like to say that F5 puts out quality products - it doesn't

I'd like to say that customer issues were resolved - they weren't.

I'd like to say that the customer was treated right - they weren't.

I'd like to say that the executive staff members are leaders - they aren't.

I'd like to say that I will recover from having worked at F5 - I can only hope.

State Farm is a scam!

Everything they do is a complete SCAM. From the Agents, to their business models, our Executives, horrible commercials, employees they hire, surveys, pay, the Hubs... you name it. Everything thing has a sleezy, low rent, dirty feeling. Trashy.... It feels like a bad dream that you can never wake up from. You keep running and running but you never go anywhere. This is not a legitimate company anymore. Everyone and I mean everyone I have spoken to prays for severance. The funny thing is SF keeps making new lows. Just when you think we are at rock bottom they find a whole other level to sink too. Leave, find some way out now. Run! This place is a disaster beyond disasters!


Does Dell offer sabbaticals?

Title. I'm interested in taking an extended sabbatical (3-6mos) and am curious if that's something Dell offers. I know there are leaves of absences and whatnot, but I don't think that's what I'm looking for.

Anybody have any experience with this?
