Now that layoffs are becoming more common in the technology sector, does anyone know what we can expect for AVIP? How confident is everyone about their job security? In GTO it feels like there is a ton of work to be done and not a lot of people to do... — read more

Taking Attendance

Out team was informed that the hybrid model compliance was going to be enforced more strictly this year- with attendance taking and auditing badge swipes. Is this kindergarten? Also- why are so many groups allowed to be fully remote? There are very... — read more 

Making A Hard Sale - Going to Move On!

Reading all these posts, sounds like nobody trusts anyone and everyone is completely out for themselves. Not how the website portrays things or how my 3rd interview went. Think I'll PASS! I appreciate people posting.

Anyone else feel this way at this place?

Peter Gibbons : So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my... — read more

Sounds familiar

While wages have increased for upper-class individuals to match inflation, the same wage increases weren’t always found for the middle class. A majority of middle class households (75%) feel that inflation is growing at a rate faster than their... — read more

Stop asking me for PAC money

You didn't even give raises to match inflation and now you want me to give you money back to lobby politicians? Stick it where the sun doesn't shine, MK. I'd rather spend that money on union dues than Met's political pet projects.
