New flying formation under RA
What do you think? Looks like undeserving people got promoted to VPs. I've found DR in particular to be hollow and self serving. Has provided no direction and is mostly an empty vessel. Thoughts?
VP impacts today??
Anyone hear anything?
Why are VPs rotating so fast?
Hardly anyone sticks at the same place.
Leaders Group Bailing
So a senior vice president takes a leave of absence?! He was a rising star but even he is disenchanted with Phillips 66 and the money is not enough to retain him. That or he was forced out. Who takes a leave of absence at that level?
Kyle L’s org
Why is everyone in Kyle L’s Org a Vice President? That’s excessive.
Another round of layoffs
.This past week, they conducted another round of layoffs, this time targeting VP’s and directors. It seems they are doing this in stages for some reason, trying to remain under the radar.
Executive Director
Is everyone at Wells Fargo an Executive Director. P4 no reports, Executive Director. P5 no reports, Executive Director. M2 with 12 reports Executive Director. P4 and P5 with no reports should be a VP
Britney Bartlett VP leaves
Writing on the wall for GVS and mid market reps RIP
Media picked up on WA layoffs
More than 200 different job titles are impacted, according to the filing, including analysts, engineers and technicians, as well as directors and managers.
The cuts targeted nearly 210 senior- and director-level employees, plus seven employees with vice president or senior vice president titles. They include a senior VP of talent and four VP of legal affairs roles.

Greenspoint assigned parking
Remember how at GP long time employees had assigned parking spots? VPs even had a separate section on the ground floor. Then when we moved to EMHC it was announced that there would be no assigned parking for anyone even VPs. It sure wasn’t long before VPs once again had their own assigned spots but employees were never given assigned spots again.
FISV = $60?
Why are you guys surprised? All along I projected the stock to be in the 50s.
What is next? Fiserv is no longer a fintech company, it is a company with a bunch of accountants and top-heavy with VPs and SVPs. All its IP 🧐 assets are contractors. No one would invest in an accounting firm. Clover? It’s only 8% of the market and going down.
Infinite? Simply an agent, facilitating, accounting cover-up to beautify quarterly earnings.
Sad but this company is dead without its full time IP committed to Fiserv. Mike can’t do anything, Frank left him with long term contracts with third parties and many Frank’s kool-aid guys still around. Stock to $40 .
It will take Mike about another 2 years to know IP is a must to the survival of this company.
Hearing that VP and CIOs appointed by Anil are out!
I know A Patel is gone. V Wali gone too? Rat is cleaning up all former Anil's leaders. Whats going on?
VPs Getting Cut?
Has anyone heard rumors about which VPs are going to get cut? If so, that will give hints about what corporate teams are in danger.
OR out as VP:NPSO
Sounds like she was forced to “retire” by March per that email. Anyone know any details? Do share.
What are we left with in GT?
Out of 14 VPs left, we have 2 maybe 3 decent leaders left at the VP level in GT.
Others are highly toxic, backstabbing, have no vision, will sacrifice their team to make themselves look good, lack technical, product, or design competency.
Make no mistake that sooner or later all of the above will impact all of us even if you are in the space that is isolated from it right now or are able to talk you way out of it (at least for now).
Difference between Boeing and Expand?
Number of people dying from bad management decisions. Both companies have deaths associated with managers ignoring senior technical personnel and violating company and industry safety standards. VP of drilling never drilled a well. VP of completions never completed a well. What could possibly go wrong with this logic? Hire more VPs and fire more engineers. Bankrupt the company using the CEO's playbook that has been finely tuned to make executive management rich. Life is karma. You can't keep this up forever.
Ideas Portal
Does anyone know where submissions of the ideas form actually go? Do they go to your supervisor, AD, Director, VP, SVP, EVP? Straight to dans email (not slack)? Just wondering if anyone’s in the know on this and knows if it will actually be taken seriously or if it’s just for show.
H1
The disproportionate presence of Indian leaders hiring and promoting mostly Indian H1-B candidates speaking their language into SVP and other VP roles in Tampa raises concerns about favoritism and closed networks. When leadership pipelines lack balance - opportunities for other equally qualified professionals are very limited.
Asset servicing Head of client coverage to leave BNY
Alan F is exiting BNY,he’s been with the firm for 18 years,when veterans leave it is always a bad signal..I sense something big is in store for 2026!
Did you notice any trends in your market layoffs?
It seemed like our VP got to keep their good old boy system while really talented people got asked to leave. I think it’s always been that way but it was hard to hide this time with people let go who were dependable.
RSUs and Bonus?
I was given RSUs a few weeks ago. Does that mean I won’t get a cash bonus during my January compensation conversation?
What are the bonuses typically for US developers? Senior associates, vp, and senior vp levels.
I am the Real Slim Shady
Post after post, thread after thread - I have to correct you all. We hire companies like McKinsey to cut middle management (Dir - VP). Then we "re-org" the remaining headcount (you) as we see fit and fire people managers, and a few of you who speak up too much or we just don't like. Next we go on TV and side with liberal causes to seem woke (wait that stopped, with Chaz...lol never forget that city and M's comment on the 10th or J riding the Segway into the board during his "off air") due to lawyers in DC telling us to with the new administration, so we instead team up with Starlink...but Elon went on TV yesterday saying his $800B val is too low...why because he is ripping the technology off of T-Mobile (and plans to end us with DTC). So with that Morgan drops us $20 today, but it's not over. Stock will dip to $165, test back to $180, and the down to $140...but wait there is more. We will end Prepaid in 1-2 years. Then we will back out of KC/OP slowly lifting us back to $155. But they will realize we don't really do AI, we are a Consumer group of AI, not a Business group...so our stock will test $121...remember? But that's not it...Technology continues to improve, we will cut all of TFB, and start giving away internet and iPhones for free, because we have no other moves...but this destroys our ARPA and eventually..other enter this market with real adjacent businesses and who know AI revenue (not cost), we...go down to $80...well and then we get bought out..at $120/share by Elon....
Yes I am the Real Slim Shady, I am the Satoshi Nakamoto. Want to know anything, ask me...I will reply.
The Emperor’s New Clothes
Sure Dan thinks he’s telling us all these revelatory truths but we all knew what he was saying was true years ago. There’s a significant proportion of the company whose goals are aligned to saying “No” or “It’s not me”. Trying to get anything done, or anything fixed is a complete pain in the a**
Silo management just blocks progress and every VP and SD are responsible for that
neustar layoffs
Genuinely curious, have any Neustar VP’s and above been laid off since joining TU?
Reducing 13k+ - yet creating BRAND New VPs positions
Lets keep an eye on how many VPs - the hatchet man - has decided to create.
And wanna guess - where they coming from? You will guest correctly.
This is Plain BS and absurd, and unfair. WHY WE NEED TO CREATE NEW VP POSITIONS???
More Layoffs at Comcast Today
There were more layoffs in the Data and AI org today. Lots of VPs and product team members were affected.
Layoffs and yet another $$$ tech VP
I'm trying to make sense of the mixed messages and bringing in another industry CIO like Paula Krantz in our current climate. The leadership of this company seems to burns money on shiny new hires but layoffs and hardly cost living raises are the table scraps fr the rest of us who put in the years building the backbone of the company. I know a couple people in another department who left for better pay at SSM and Express scripts. It is probably time to clean up the resume which is unfortunate.
GVP Position Eliminated
It’s getting harder to survive in a GVP role. Now with the elimination of a GVP role (mid-atlantic) that’s more work for an already strained team. Dilute the support, dilute relationships and dilute the outcome! :(
x.data $*it-show since last 4 years
x.d*ta is currently not generating meaningful results and seems to be consuming resources without clear returns. The executive management appears to be spending heavily on travel( 4-5 times a year), often involving select individuals traveling between the US and Kochi, without any clear agenda just to attend the workshops. So far, the outcomes have been underwhelming, with releases that are difficult to understand from the release notes. subpar level releases where executives just pat each other's back after release.
While many employees in the US are facing job losses, some individuals who may not be contributing effectively appear to be receiving promotions or salary increases in India.
This should end, seriously !! few heads should roll now instead of RAing innocent engineers and managers ...entire focus is to make "kingdom" in kochi by this executive.. hope new VP takes notice of that and do long pending "purge"
Full of incompetent Tech VP Managers from Indian Consultancies
Been with the firm in CCB for about 3 years now, This place is full of Indian VP Managers who don't know anything, they are basically project managers updating status in Excel sheets and working as Engineering leads or Managers. They are mostly all full time switch overs from Indian Consulting firms.
TMs be sure to destroy your SMs on their Peakon Surveys next month
TMs be sure to absolutely just blast your SM on the Peakon Survey. I know some of them are decent but it's about a lot more than that. You want to make CMs and VPs squirm. Put in the comments, be harsh and do not go easy. Answer everything with zeros and be as spiteful as you can. Understand the surveys are not about making changes, it's about how effective the propaganda is and it lets them judge how far they can pressure you before things explode. Do not assume good intentions, under no circumstances. That place is an evil toxic he-l hole!
Orange county, California
The VP of Group Ops and the Medical Director made their rounds this morning. Eight primary care sites in Orange County, California were notified today, midweek, mid-morning that they will be closing effective December 5, 2025. They will be consolidating the clinics, shifting providers/staff into the few remaining sites.
Apparently, they were told no one would be let go and only reassigned to the other sites. Unsurprisingly, this was a lie. Positions were eliminated. Support staff were told they'd "try" to find other positions for them to fill, knowing full well we've been in a hiring freeze for the past year. The remaining staff in the OC are completely disgusted by leadership. Morale has never been worse. Their twisted idea of patient care means that thousands of patients are being told their doctor’s offices are closing in two weeks.
They allegedly hire the most experienced, most educated people to fill leadership roles, who get paid handsomely for their positions... and the best idea they could come up with is to RIF a bunch of staff right before the holidays, on a Thursday morning, expecting them to provide excellent patient care the next day and every day after until they're let go? Let's squeeze them more and more and see if their eyes pop out....
Layoffs in corporate- round 1, any word of round 2?
They RIFed 70 people in corporate a couple of weeks ago. Any word of any more? New VP said he couldn’t promise there wouldn’t be another one.
Leadership failing miserably
VP's, director's and managers do not lead, they spread their toxic behavior and all they care about is employees that follow their lead and cut costs. While knowing HR and lawyers will cover it up. This ends up costing more in the end. Hold these people accountable for their actions, inactions, tactics and improve the moral of the entire team. Start investigating HR and move on through the VP's, directors and managers. Time for the trustees to make moves to remove these toxic leaders and show employees they are respected and cared for. Talent, experience and leaders are being lost. The system failed all employees.
Got a test invite from the VP level admin
Received and invite for tomorrow then it disappeared. Came from the VP coms person. Am I dead or am I safe?

Layoff package for VP
Skyworks has created a new severance plan for top executives.
It was approved on November 11, 2025 and filed on November 14, 2025.
This plan only covers Vice Presidents and Senior Vice Presidents who report directly to the CEO.
Directors, managers, engineers, and all non-executive employees are not included.
If a VP or SVP is laid off in normal times, they receive:
• One year of base salary
• One year of company-paid medical insurance
• A partial bonus they have already earned
• Some RSUs that would have vested within the next 12 months
If a VP or SVP is laid off after a merger or company sale, they receive:
• One and a half times their base salary
• One and a half times their target bonus
• Eighteen months of company-paid medical insurance
• Full vesting of all RSUs
• Extra time to exercise stock options
To receive these benefits, they must sign a legal release and follow non-compete rules.
This plan gives very strong protection to VP and SVP executives.
Regular employees do not receive these benefits.
