Today, I must have spent 2 hours with 6 different people about the new 60 percent requirement and making almost everyone non compliant since we were all doing 11 days.

Can you imagine how much GK wasted bank resources with this day care monitoring?

This is going to be talked about for a long time, wasting bank resources with this.

And managers will waste more time monitoring and coaching people, i.e., having to write PIP on their best performers. I am sure most managers hate this and just care if people are working, not where they work

Hey fellow Vteamers! I am really proud of us for completing our Google AI professional certificates and posting about it on LinkedIn for attention and praise. It’s a monumental achievement in showing to the world that we play to win by completing another company’s training materials! When my kids bring home their participation awards, I show them my AI certificates and we celebrate our accomplishments together. AI unlocks EI and makes us amazing humans. This will save us from layoff risk and differentiate us as superstar thought leaders. Yay team!!!!

We lost more than half of our team. I have no idea how things will look from this point on. I'm worried we'll be reassigned to other teams, and I really don't want to lose my remaining coworkers or my manager. She's one of the few good ones left. I know layoffs are done, but I think the aftermath will be just as bad for the rest of us.

This topic is staying. Why is the CL TV leader allowed to nothing for years?

Too many people doing close to nothing on this team and horrible morale. How long can this last?

Absolutely no governance, no scope control, constantly swapping quality of releases for quantity of how much they can squeeze in.

Senthil finally got a guy on his team who knew how to fix things. He documented all of the processes, identified break points and had built a coalition between product, engineering and test who agreed on the plan and were starting to fix things.

Gues what happened next (drum roll) Senthil decided to RIF the guy who was fixing the problems, the guy who could lower Salish’s blood pressure, the guy who could restore work life balance to engineers and testers.

No one is picking up the work. Hope is diminishing that T-Life will ever be a healthy team.

Don’t believe leadership when they say they care.

The Education Management Team is manipulating instructor time clock punches in order to turn a buck! Who do we speak with about this? They are manipulating overtime hours and making them disappear. I know HR is in it for the company and can’t be trusted.
Needing advice!! Help!! This place is toxic!

Anyone impacted from IDC fusion support? I haven't received any email or heard from my teammates, so can i assume safe this time?

Duke stunned by UConn in final 0.4 seconds. The Blue Devils are now the first No. 1 seed to lose in the tournament after leading by at least 15 points at halftime. Couldn’t of happened to a more arrogant fan base!

I was hired last September straight of undergrad and was pretty happy. But oh boy this wasn't how I wanted my adult life to start but here I am worried on a Saturday morning. FML seriously. I feel like an id--t for saying yes. Everyone in my team is just so stressed.

Not sure what the big deal was about me edging during a team meeting?

Does anyone remember during smart redesign there was a push to make all supervisors have 6 or more employees? What happened to that? I see so many supervisors with two, three and even one employee.

Just read this... it's giving "waffle party" energy from severance. They really think going out for coffee is going to make us ok with going in five days per week? Do they think we're stupid?

Managers who encounter resistance to RTO should help their team bond by inviting them "out for a coffee or lunch, or hold a team-building activity," Paramount said in an "RTO People Leader Toolkit" obtained by Business Insider.

Bosses who can't think of a way to unite their team can turn to AI, the document said: "You can also prompt Microsoft Copilot: give me examples of team-building activities."

"Strong relationships build trust, help people feel part of a community, and enhance well-being," the document said.

Get rid of teams. Back in office 4 days a week to collaborate. If I am taking / collaborating with Johnny, who is an Executive Director in Risk, Governance, Compliance, Regulatory Remediation for Credt, WIM,Corporate and Community banking who is an SME in RCSA, then my teams might be yellow for an hour. I am getting extremely valuable knowledge on how to be on calls all day long and filling out metric reports for people who look at those reports and challenge them with questions like “where do you get this data?”

They surprised me at the speed in which they lock out laid off employees from the laptops. We are talking 15-30 minutes. And they can discreetly delete the Outlook and Teams app off your phone within an hour. I guess the proficiency is due to the high volume of practice they receive every six or so months.

Now, only if Team Shannon Bell could find away to fulfill routine employee IT requests in a timely manner. Right now we are talking weeks, and in some cases, months.

This company is a clown show.

Should we expect that literally ALL teams within CIO, Tech Development, and Professional Services will eventually transition to contractors or be phased out, or are there certain products or teams that are intended to remain in place much longer term/business as usual? Do we think this will eventually also impact other teams like sales, client support, client success, etc?

Any intel/experiences on the Vasara project and the people that run it?

I may look to transfer over and wanted to know if it's a good team to join

It's becoming impossible to ignore the fact that certain people get access to opportunities the rest of us don't even know exist, not to mention are considered for. It's always the same names for every good project, every interesting assignment. I guess hard work doesn't matter if you're not in the right group.

Ynon goes hard on Mondays. Good luck to all

Is it true, then list is finalized.. layoffs may start from Tuesday

I can’t say I’m happy about it, just relieved I still have a job. Two people on my team were let go.

The newest CHRO’s Post-it wisdom says:

When we stop trying to be everywhere, we finally give our leaders the space to be innovative and quick. Speed doesn't come from more eyes on a project; it comes from fewer, more decisive ones.

Yet - we are drowning amidst all the things that have to get done - with a crippled team who does not know anything because the experts are gone. And she comes up with JOMO.

In what world she is living?

Skilled, experienced, two were veterans. Feels like they're targeting the ones we actually need. Apparently being good at your job is now a liability.

Great job everyone! As a retired Macy's IT worker, it is great to see Tony Spring take the reins and show incredible sales results. Such a pleasure not to fear sales reporting.

As a team, you all deserve recognition. Yes, many changes- retail is ever changing, especially in the environment we are currently in.
Macy's did a great job navigating the change, great execution in planning as well.

Here's wishing you all a successful 2026,!

How will my manager manage?

She has 3 pets, 2 performers, 2 under performers.

How will she fit them in the corporate Thrive boxes? With only $16,485.38 cents for raises, 2 of the pets are going to be punished by being forced into the performer box.

I do not see this working out well for my teammates. Feels like more undocumented RIF actions than NetApp's move important asset.

WDGSTIF? Who Did George Steal This Idea From? Oh, well his twin brother of course.

I sit near the “people team” at one of our locations and there’s a very loud male employee who openly talks about “lowballing” candidates and mocking them for asking questions about return to office. You’re all low life henchmen and women for this disgusting EC. You can’t handle simple requests yet you act like you’re the all knowing and all mighy.

No extra pay, no discussion, just "figure it out." I'm doing two jobs and burning out fast. Anyone else dealing with this?

Reflecting on the energy sector lately, it’s striking how much the work we do matters ... not just in powering homes and industries, but in doing it thoughtfully and responsibly.
At Chevron, there’s a quiet consistency to how things get done: prioritizing the safety of people and protection of the environment above everything else, building real partnerships that last, valuing the diverse perspectives everyone brings, and always aiming to deliver high performance with integrity at the core. It’s not flashy, but it’s steady and over time, that approach builds something meaningful.
In an industry full of challenges and change, being part of a team guided by those principles feels like a real advantage. It shapes the decisions, the collaborations, and even the small daily choices that add up.

Grateful to be in the middle of it, contributing alongside people who care about getting results the right way.

What about you? what keeps you motivated in this space?

Any other groups receiving team meeting invites for the 26th?

with this new myQ that is being generated and the hiring they're doing in India, could we see the design team being eliminated or reduced?

Help me understand how 1 team lays off one employee and then pulls another employee from a different team to fill a position on the team they just laid someone off on? Couldn't they have transferred the employee they just laid off?

Thumbs up if your Team is in worse shape now after last year's Reorg.....the talk is there might be a new one to fix it.....

Our manager has recently initiated bi-weekly meetings with all employees. The team already has regular meetings, and it is an open team where the manager is universally liked. I have noticed the team seems to be getting punished for not being able to do all things all the time due to other teams regulatory failings which are universally creating work for everyone adjacent; any ideas what might be going on as a guess? Could the company, wrongly as usual, be targeting our team?

Any news on upcoming layoffs. In our market, we have some organizational changes. Where there’s a small team and a large team under one supervisor that’s supposed to have different roles. One team will be working on building a program. The other team would continue to do what they’re doing. Thinking this may be a sign that they’re going to eliminate an entire team.

If managers are asked for list, its usually 2 person per team layoff in Oracle. If you are not in your manager's list then you will be the one.

Restructuring solves nothing, breaks plenty. Vacancies never get filled, teams just get more stretched and bitter.

And they always cut the wrong people. Not that the rest of us are useless. We're not. But without fail, they boot the one person who actually mattered - the skilled one, the experienced one, the glue who kept the team from falling apart. Every single time.

It boggles the mind, really. Especially when you see the same pattern repeating itself for so many years.
