Your Prod access
Check if you are able to access to critical resources
People are not interchangeable economic units
No matter how often you refer to us as “resources”
Making do with less resources
Laying off staff and trying to make do with less resources…
New staff who don’t know much about the job and the company…
Tenured associates with the role and company knowledge gone…
News flash T Rowe, what do you think is going to happen? Who is going to do the work? Who knows how to do the work?
After displacement notice, do you still get access to DY resources during 60 day period?
When I'm displaced, will I still get access to Develop You and Pluralsight resources to complete courses for my development?

IBM August / September 2016 Resource Action Summary
I've summarized 20 reports in a single thread - this is from Watching IBM - there you go, all 20 of them:
-
RA'd today in USA Storage Presales (CTS). Multiple 2+ ratings, exceeded quota past 2 years, top quarter of organization. 90 days notice 1 month severance.
-
Tomorrow 344 Dutch colleagues will be RA'd
-
Just got the call. US based in GTS global. Manager says HR calling it Work Elimination in US. Didn't have overall numbers but said it was widespread and impacting 2 in group. Both "retirement eligible".
-
RA happening today in the US, GTS managers are making calls... not sure who is involved yet.
-
GTS is hit and they are hitting tech people also. Just happened to one of my team mates
-
I was RA'ed today. I'm in the CIO. Was told that the reason is that my position is being eliminated due to co-location strategy to limit # of locations that CIO personnel are in. Some of my work will be transitioned to other resources & other work eliminated. I don't know of other folks affected. Nearly 20 years service and a whole 1 month pay
-
19+ years. RA'ed today. Lost two jobs to landed resources from India. IBM = India business machines. GBS. Anybody that thinks they are safe. Your time is coming. But Ginny is building a chalet in the Swiss alps. Good luck. Finally over the waiting. Seen all my friends go before me.
-
RA'd after 17 years. Systems Group. Age 49, told it was because of my experience and performance and the direct the business unit is going. Never less than a 2+ in the last 15 years. We all know what is really going on.
-
In IBM for 20 years, currently in CIO half of the group is RAed because not co-located. Other half to go next year unless they move.
-
Gone GTS 30 years
-
I knew it was gonna happen soon. IBM wants to get the people off the payrolls prior to 12/15, to save the 401k match. I was not affected, not sure about others on the account I am on. to be honest, we have already been decimated to the bare minimum, most of the account has already been replaced with Costa Rica IBMers.
-
Mgrs in GTS were RA'd yesterday employees still be told in GTS as I write this
-
I'm in the number this time. After over 15yrs and then several 2+ ratings. But of course this happens right after Thanksgiving and before the 401K match time.
-
Another wave of cuts in TSS UK started this week, part 2 of the 2016 cull...
-
Hi - ugh. I've just heard about another RA happening today. An old co-worker of mine from GBS is affected. He was notified today and his last day will be Nov. 29. No idea of size/scope of RA. My area here in Analytics was not included this time.
-
Still processing the information but there is an RA in progress and "I am affected". I'm in GTS (work from home Boulder) and do mainframe engagement solutioning but it sounds like it will be larger than GTS. Word is the standard cheepskate severance.
-
RA in GTS, so far no tech folks hit (but we were decimated on the last round), but heard that US-based PM's targeted
-
Just got word that RAs are happening in GTS. So far, people working in the CICs, myself included, aren't affected...looks like they're targeting the WFH people again. Manager seemed stressed reading the official script on the phone. Asked how many were let go in this RA and he wouldn't comment on the issue. Work being off shored to China. No surprises, I'm a long time follower of this group. I realize it is not based on the quality of my work, just another company drowning in management mistakes. Life goes on.
-
Well got the call today, 22 years of service and I've been RA'd, 90 days with a severance of 1 month. Bitter sweet feelings since I've been VERY unhappy with the way things have been going the last few years. I'm in GTS (work from home in Broomfield/Boulder Co.) as a Transition Project Manager.
