Targets

Despite all the bullying from team leaders to reach targets be assured theres no chance of being fired for not meeting them,so relax who cares about a negative review your going to get for something else anyway.


Google Project Team is a Joke

That “Fireside Chat” today was beyond corny and completely useless. I’m sure the 1933 evening radio programs were much more informative and reassuring to the American people. Totally scripted questions which were rehearsed, regurgitated answers that could be found in previous emails and the FAQ website, beating around the bush & stalling on important issues that will need to be addressed pronto, communication is not tailored to specific departments, i.e. using a one-size-fits-all approach is not effective. For example, I don’t travel, so I don’t care how I access files when I’m in an airport. Of course, the collaboration, security, and AI rationale was propagated instead of being frank and stating that it’s a cost-cutting measure. No, you are not getting a Chromebook immediately, so stop asking. Yes, we know Early Adopters begin December 8th and everybody else mid-February. What will you need to do if use complex tools? They’ll “figure it out” later on, aka you’ll need to rebuild everything from scratch and make some sacrifices along the way.

Buckle up, it’s about to get brutal.


CX Team

I know many people in CX team that are good for nothing. There are multiple teams in that group that have not delivered a single feature in the entire year.
They are always confrontation if you ask them. Love to finger point on everyone under the sun .. UX , GTS , legal etc for their massive delays.

All of them survived.. How ? Many great people were let go..

Dan should audit their 2025 performance .. Budget spent vs feature ( code) delivered in Prod.


Has anyone done actual work these past two weeks?

I'm in corporate out of Basking Ridge. The place has been a ghost town. My boss and teammates have all been distant. I am seeing meetings cancelled left and right.

Serious question. When will the "new normal" start for those that make the first cut?


Perks

Do you all get any perks? We're a core team in Brokerage, responsible for one of Abby's three goals flashing on the TV these days. Yet, no team lunches whatsoever. After our persistent complaints, our scrum master (great guy!) organized a Pizza team lunch, out of his own pocket later we learned!

Meanwhile, other perks such as AWS ReInvent tickets, this and that training camps... the leaders are kept among themselves.

Wondering is it the norm or where I am su-ks?


So by the Time Thursday comes we’re gonna be basket cases

I’m pretty sure by time end of week notifications go out most of management will need straight jackets from all the stress .We are all probably gonna be less useful after all this knowing if we made the cut we still may be on the next cut .Dan has made it very clear that these layoffs will be a way of life as a Vteamer .I mean go team go


Reorg before cleanup

Why cant the teams reorganize before cleanup. Let the low level hard worker atleast try to understand the org structures and the new skill needs before asking him to go. There are so many managers who are just going to take care of their favorites and the true workers might be left in the dust. It just makes sense for the worker to be assigned to the new org structure where he can reskill and deliver as needed. Remember most of the band 6 and below are just doing what they are told , with all the hard work necessary to acheive that.


This post nails it

Not mine, source below:
there are 30K+ schwabbies, of course some of them are terrible at their jobs—it's a massive sample size. many software folks are completely unaware of the infrastructure their app rides or how their app should even function to deploy boilerplate functionality. backbiting and driving a wedge between software and systems where there should be a bridge is emblematic of the shortsightedness that's rife at schwab. do you feel clever when you post your half-arsed attempts at angering folks you don't like? feeling's mutual, mate.

the real issue is the strict adherence to process and procedure for the sake of perception. no one—literally no one—with their hands on the wheel has any intention of changing or updating the outmoded systems to effect any real change out of fear for their jobs, all the while ignorant of the fact that their jobs are in jeopardy anyway.

this is a top-down problem. phrases like, "we've always done it this way," or, "well you're the __ expert, you tell me," are just symptoms of schwab's inability to move forward. everyone acts like they're on different teams, competing for rick's attention, instead of realizing they're just playing different positions on the same team. if the WR and the QB have a sour relationship, whose fault is it that the play ended in an incomplete pass?

y'all need to seriously learn some compassion, do some introspection, and read the phoenix project. when your new VM takes four months to deploy instead of two weeks, will you blame the same people you always do or will you realize that the archaic business process has been compounded by fewer folks to fill the requests?

of course not, you'll still be whacking away at your keyboard, complaining that folks who aren't badging in at the office every day are "ruining it for others." do everyone else a favor and get over yourself.
