I was paid just fine during the 60 days, and I submitted the severance docs early on. I didn't get paid on 12/5 though. It's there a delay for the first severance check?

Raise and bonus 2026
What do developers typically get in yearly increase? What about bonus? I joined as a senior associated in February (US, not NYC). I've heard people say it's $1000. Some say it's 5-15% of your yearly salary.
What have other developers had in salary increase and bonus?
I’m having a hard time dealing with this much stress
The job on its own is demanding enough, but knowing it could disappear any day adds a whole new layer of anxiety and exhaustion. Has anyone ever considered the revolutionary idea that employees who feel reasonably secure and actually rested might be far more productive?
Provider Network/Client Mgmt/Care Transitions
Does anyone actually know what the life expectancy is for Provider Network/Client Management/Care Transitions roles? Mergers, no direction and messy mix of job roles and responsibilities makes it feel pretty clear at least one, if not all departments/employees will be let go. Does anyone have any actual insights to this?
Last few Checks Direct Deposit?
Anyone know if my last few checks after I’m off payroll the 19th will still come via direct deposit?
Also for Stock Together, is that paid out after you leave payroll or you wait until March for that ?
What’s the latest?
A lot seems to be happening, but there’s still no clear picture of how bad it’s going to get or who’s most at risk. HP feels completely directionless, and while I wouldn’t mind leaving or even being let go, the job market, especially for us, is awful right now. So yeah, I’m worried. The money has to come from somewhere.
Extremely severe layoffs are coming
Are you ready for that?
What's the current employee count?
Does anyone here know?
What will they share in employment verification checks?
Curious if anyone knows how they verify employment to a prospective employer and what they share? I would imagine it goes through HR and possibly even some sort of automated process? Do they only provide dates of employment and title? Will they answer additional questions, if asked?
To be clear, I’m not talking about anything involving a reference check- just the standard employment verification to make sure I did actually work there.
RE-ORG fatigue
How many re-orgs have you been through in the last 5 years?
Is Wiley tanking?
One day after quarterly earnings call, stock hits the low point for the year. Can Wiley dig itself out of this ongoing mess?
Has SKIMS saved us yet?
Well?
VSPers - Anyone else lost access?
Setting up a new computer today and my access to the severance portal and Verizon benefits connection are no longer working. I haven't logged on in a minute so not sure when this issue started. Anyone else have this problem or know who to contact?
Who won the severance today?
Today was supposed to be a day for more cuts. So, who got notice that they are getting a big check and subsequently running away from this dumpster fire as quickly as possible?
Auto shares
Which do people start to get shares automatically? Is it level7?
So disappointed
Last year I got a bigger raise compared to this year even though my rating was MUCH MUCH BETTER.
Does anyone know how the raise works here?
What's the point of being a high performer if it doesn't translate to money??
When will Fido realize "recognition email" doesn't pay my bills ....
RIFs in mke and mqn
Rumours on new layoffs in mke and mqn?
Anyone else hearing that that they are trying to change the Severance policy
Thread title and anyone have any idea if they were to do so how long it would take to change it?
Thoughts on One Medicare?
Does anyone have thoughts on the whole One Medicare thing after the meeting today?
SNAP Benefits
Does anyone know of the SNAP and EBT benefits situation since the Trump Administration has ruined so many things? Some of us and our coworkers may need assistance going forward.
MN Onsite Week of 12/8
Please share details on what is happening with this leadership meeting, does anyone know?
Really, How Bad Can Shell Be At Staff Admin?
How poor are personnel and career management at Shell, really? That’s a question, not a statement.
Doge fires 1,000s on bogus poor performance allegations; many having to sue to get their jobs back.
Ford warns employees they risk firing for not complying with RTO orders.
Meta and GM terminate by impersonal, surprise emails and/or texts, after blocking intranet access.
Many staffers at lots of companies agonize over cutbacks and layoffs.
Is Shell actually so much worse? By comparison, how different can Shell be at personnel management and career offerings? Is the grass really greener elsewhere?
Layoffs
Why didn’t VH have Q&A at her townhall. Seems like something is brewing. Surely she knew people would ask about the VSP and layoffs.
Where did the idea of replacing Carmen with Switchmen/Utility men come from?
Does anyone know,or have any ideas, about how Carmen are being replaced?
Where did it start from, who implemented this idea?
Is it any one individual or location that came up with the idea??????
New Benefit Survey
In the first time in years, HR actually cared about asking our opinion about new employee benefits. Imagine that ! After all the cutting, they finally listened and said: what can we do to help our employees and provide them a more competitive benefit package ? The options which I chose were:
- Mental Health
- Legal Assistance (so I can find a lawyer that will help me sue)
- Pet Insurance from Nationwide
- Free Massages during Lunch Hour
What say you ?
Let's have it out, Java UI guy.
Out of all the absolute stupid problems with Xerox copiers and printers, what is your deal with the java ui interface? It is the least of the problems on a copier. What is it that makes you this way?
If it’s true that emails are going out tomorrow
will everyone be notified on the same day?
Transfering internally
If you make a lateral move, does your pay remain the same? Does bonus % change? Not sure if anyone here has experience, but considering applying to an adjacent role (Currently a Senior System Analyst) but the role I'm looking to apply is a regular System analyst. Not sure what that would mean pay wise. Does everyone at TIAA get the same bonus %?
$20 mil fund
Has anyone found accurate information on how to see the details of the $20 million assistance fund for those impacted? If I have missed it in the packet and or here on the forum then shame on me.
India ....no promotion for G6s
I have been told that i need to have minimum 15+ years experience to move to G7 in India .Is this normal ?
This leadership group's most detrimental practice is the systematic sidelining of high performers. Governed by an implicit anti-meritocratic stance, their chief aim is self-preservation. They intentionally install a layer of middling and compliant managers beneath them. This creates a buffer that prevents truly talented individuals from advancing to levels where they might question authority, reveal strategic shortcomings, or disrupt the status quo. Having reached the later stages of their careers, their focus has narrowed to preserving their lucrative positions and titles with minimal exertion, effectively treating their roles as comfortable sinecures.
