#relocation

Has anyone got confirmation from their managers of the letters coming on 1/9?

How do you feel about that? Is it going to impact your commute, better or worse location?

Wondering if anyone has credible info on how severance actually works. I know its 1 week for every year maxed out at 25.

Tell us again how it’s not going to happen.

ALL NTX offices moving to Plano HQ.

I wonder how much money we are spending to move?

Yes, we have been told anyone and everyone not currently working at an approved KNL will get their letter next week. Under 50 miles you will be expected to report to your new location the 1st week of March. Greater than 50 miles you have 60 days to say yes or no. If you say yes, you have till March 2027 to report. If you say no, you go to the surplus list and expect to be layed off by June 2026.

Putting this up for visibility.

Mercedes-Benz Financial Services is cutting 157 positions. These job losses stem from an office relocation to Georgia. A WARN Act notice was filed by the company. Overall, 265 employees were impacted by the facility's closure. The 157 affected individuals chose not to move and face layoffs by August 2026.

What is the due date by when all outside hubs need to be in hub?

Did you rent first to get a feel of the neighborhood or did you buy out of state and move?

Relocation is insanely costly these days, and the chances of keeping your job after uprooting yourself and your family are extremely low. It’s just another attrition tactic. Refusing to relocate plays into leadership’s hands, but going along with it is even more senseless.

Anybody relocated to Dallas with kids in school? How is Richardson for commute?

Cork, Liverpool, Poole how are you doing? Any updates on when offices expect to close? Are any of you offered BAH contracts or relocation?

Wexford employees who are now BAH, did you get a new BAH contract where it says you may have to return to office or how is it working for you?

For now at least, this hub is still hanging around. We will ditch the DTV space and move a couple of miles down the road. The new building looks fairly nice but I’m sure they will ruin it by cramming us all into an open plan that makes concentration impossible. No date given but since they sent notice have to believe it will be in the next couple of months at most.

Drop your thoughts and news here for the Southlake office move.

Received a letter stating you are not required to relocate at this time but at some point in future your role will be filled in Dallas. Does this mean it is virtual forever or will I be let go at some point?

Anybody in this situation relocated to save your primary job, sell your home, sacrificing your spouse’s job and moved kids to Dallas?

These a--holes have the audacity to force people to wfh full time and are now asking if you will relocate so when you say no they can fire you

Can anyone confirm if remote employees will still need to relocate to an area office. The office in my market closed and I must say I am exited with the future opportunity to relocate to an office.

Does Exxon support a spouse that works to find a new job in the new country they move you to? With visas, etc for professional work

Hi all. Been reading this forum while interviewing with Aramco and obviously the situation doesn’t look very promising. But I wanted to ask anyway even if to confirm my negative bias.
I’m in my early 30s, married, no kids. I live and work in Europe earning low 6 digits. I very quickly got to a place where further career progression is very difficult and even if achieved would mean a salary increase incomparable with the increase in hours and responsibilities. I don’t want to say the exact area just in case Aramco HR reads this forum.
The offer is in the 200-300k range. Net it will more than double my salary most likely. I’ll also spend a lot less because I live in probably the most expensive city in Europe where rent is crazy. Most people in the team (including the line manager) are either American or European. The plan would be to stay for a few years, save aggressively and come back to Europe. I know that life is Saudi is strange but I’m sure I’ll be able to survive a few years reading books, playing PS5 and travelling to Europe for holidays a few times a year. I understand that it’s possible for family to visit which would make things easier for me. I also think that in my area Aramco would look pretty good on the resume, and there’s actually an area in which I can grow professionally in Aramco simply because it’s part of the job.

Is this a realistic view given my goal and current position, or am I missing something?

Around 50% of ATS is still residing in non-hubs in 2025. Are there any relocations coming in 2026 or have to wait till 2027?

I'm in my mid-30s, at around L9-L11 level, working in the field (sales/operations). Throughout my career, I've mostly received 3s and 4s on performance reviews and have relocated a few times for the company. I'm recently married and planning to start a family soon.

With the recent news of excellent people leaving this week amid the restructuring, I'm really worried. Is it still realistic to feel secure raising a family here at PepsiCo long-term, without constant fear of instability?

Do you trust the company's direction right now? I'm scared and seriously thinking it's time to start exploring backup plans.

Any advice or similar experiences from others in the field?

I see people relocated to berkley heights from all other states including countries, for what? for their stock value to drop over 70% , work in the noisy office 9 hours 3 days, and waste time, most of the products are legacy and need atleast 7 to 10 people to keep them running, no innovation, and they make it look as if they are one of those trillion $ companies like Faang or Nvidia, VP's and SVP's just satisying egos , giving 1- 2 % increments to people working 12 hours a day to keep the lights on, That is fiserv. product managers non stop talking from 8 to 8 with zero innovation, and knowledge , may be they wanna retire here doing mundane work.

Hi friends. I have it on good authority that layoffs are confirmed for early 1Q 2026 immediately following the holidays. My source said the board recently signed off on the plan of “execution”. Also a major topic of discussion was to relocate the HQ back to Spring TX due to quality of hires found in Oklahoma. This was a similar strategy of our former company, Southwest Energy said they could hire much better Engineers from A&M and the land people from Okie were non consequential hires basically. Although this appears to be a long term plan for Expand after the dust settles from this 25% layoff. I’ll keep this forum updated with more news and stuff. Happy Holidays, y’all!

You either bring people who can do the work to where it is, or the work will go to where the people who can do it are.

Zoysia or Bermuda? We are renting a house in Cu----g, Ga near 400.

I am not a T-Mobile employee!

You heard it here first. This time next year there will be news of T-Mobile headquarters being moved from Bellevue WA to Overland Park KS. Final move will be 2030, following expiration of contract with Bellevue. T-Mobile has been in talks with KS reps and are close to a deal surrounding lower taxes. T-Mobile execs already working to move jobs.

Prepare!

Job Well Done John Stankey
Recent Warner Brother Sale to Netflix is another glaring Bat Signal, Exclamation Point, Nail in the Coffin at your utter buffoonery in running an Organization.
At a bare bones lowball minimum(aka what you sell assets for Stankey Style) you have cost shareholders $100B in equity value. At an absolute ceiling(what you buy assets for Stankey Style) you have cost shareholders $250B in your career as an Executive at ATT. You get played like a fiddle at the poker table time and time again but of course it is with other people's money and lives. Total failure in the business world.

. . . was the mentality behind the execution of RTO, forced relocation at employee expense, and seemingly random surplusses?

Are we a leaner, more cohesive and productive work force? Did it create a brighter future for AT&T?

You've had 2 years to experience and observe. Would you have executed it differently? Share your observations.

So for those of you who aren’t getting information from your managers, directors, etc., the workplace relocation notifications are going to take place beginning first or second week of January. If you’re not in one of the 40 key network locations, the four hubs or one of the 10 to 12 other approved locations you will be getting notification to move to a new office location.

If you’re within 50 miles of your new location, you’ll be expected to start reporting within 60 days. If you’re over 50 miles you will have 60 days to say whether or not you will accept the new location assignment if you say yes you will have until late spring early summer 2027 to make the move if you say no in all likelihood, you’re off the payroll by June 2026. If you say yes, and then the year passes and it’s time for you to go, and you say no, you’ll be terminated without severance.

Everyone, regardless of your role or your organization is affected. Whether you’re a national employee, original employee or a market based employee all these rules apply and many of us are already being told unofficially where we’re headed.

This is all part of a two prong effort to reduce headcount and also reduce real estate footprint. So the company will reduce real estate footprint and obviously save money by selling off those buildings and/or ending leases. Secondly, they’ll save money with a reduced headcount because there’s going to be people who say no right out the gate and others who will leave the company in the term or when the time comes further reducing headcount considering how many people this affects it’s gonna be a pretty steep cut in headcount when it all shakes out.

Looks like more and more Framingham MA is not the new home. Instead its in NJ.

This is the longest December and i cant wait to get the love letter in January.

Merry Christmas!
Goodluck to everyone..

AT&T’s latest office shuffle in San Antonio is fueling speculation about the future of its downtown Dallas headquarters.

The telecommunications giant confirmed it will vacate its office at 1010 N. St. Mary’s Street in San Antonio and relocate to the city’s West Side, according to the San Antonio Business Journal article published September 29.

The move will leave about 400,000 square feet vacant in the city’s downtown office market, which has already been weakened by recent corporate exits.

Sources familiar with the transaction told the San Antonio Business Journal that AT&T signed a deal last week to occupy more than 100,000 square feet at The Reserve at Westover Hills, a suburban complex that had been largely empty since 2021.

Will be announced to all employees in Spring 2026.

Boston employees currently working in the 80% in office model will be offered a stipend to relocate.

There are many Boston based employees that still have no in office requirement and that will remain indefinitely (meaning they will stay remote). as they fall under the “run the business” header.

Any insight into if the building challenges could lead to an accelerated move to Edmonton? Ex. Can’t build a building on-site and therefore Imperial decides to simply lease/buy an existing vacant building downtown Edmonton? I have no legit intel suggesting if this is a valid concern of not.

Did Legg say that he is done with relocations in the town hall or am I hallucinating? Also are the growth hubs still there?

I hear announcements of more cuts coming this week to make room for those accepting relocation from other regions.

The job market is bad and I haven’t been able to land any offers despite some interviews. Relocation would probably save my job temporarily but it would cost my other’s job as it is not transferable. Anybody faced this situation? What did you do? Also, were you let go after relocation costing both jobs?

All employees will be asked to move to Amsterdam. Anyone knows more?

I was offered a promotion but I'd have to move for it. It's not a bad offer, but with all the cuts, I'm a bit hesitant to pack up and move my entire family and then potentially end up jobless. Is this something that actually happens or am I safe at least for a while if I accept?

I’d like to hear from current/former employees. I have an opportunity for a move to Beaumont but I’m not familiar with the site at all. Any information shared would be greatly appreciated.

The plan was to allow people to choose to move to Dallas and choose a home near HQ or south, where homes are slightly more affordable. Then move HQ ~26 miles north (which falls within the loophole for severance), adding another hour plus of traffic if you live near downtown Dallas. This will NOT be the only move that will be happening. other reporting locations near Dallas are also moving north.

Coincidently the company is aware of what demographics will be most disproportionally impacted. For those employees who live in south Dallas, this will put your drive (in traffic) to about 2.5 hours each way.
