Rat damage done and still ongoing. https://www.oregonlive.com/business/2025/06/nike-laying-off-more-technology-workers.html?outputType=amp
@c9 No one needs Nike to come in and stir up drama. Everyone has had his number for a while, since the first of many layoffs was within his first month on the job --- & it's common knowledge that he offshores and lays off everywhere he goes.
@c9 Wow! Rat has too much time in his hands. Get to work and quit reading the posts on this site. I’m can because I can’t work as I wait for someone in IT to fix my computer problems.
@c9 what an A$$kisser you are. Why did you post this anonymously? I would think you would want credit for your rim l!cking. Go show Rat your post maybe you get a bonus!
@c9 whatever Rat. If meaningful work means riffing and rebadging then I guess. Whomever this is you are pathetic nothing Rat has done is meaningful. Look at how nothing works in IT as proof. Pathetic! You take kickbacks for offshore and rebadging. Everyone knows it. You are just as bad as hiding behind a post because there is little transparency I. What you’re doing.
from poster @cp "Rather than hiding behind a screen to sow discord, let’s engage in respectful, genuine conversations. "
You must be new ..."hiding behind a screen" like you can openly express your opinions at this place - "let's engage in respectful genuine conversation" - well when we are treated with genuine respect we will oblige
In the words of many I know - pound sand - this is our ONLY forum to express warn and help others
Ratnakar is here, doing meaningful work, and making solid progress. It’s disappointing to see someone from Nike trying to stir up unnecessary drama. That kind of behavior reflects more on the person spreading negativity than on Ratnakar himself.
Let’s remember the purpose of this platform — it’s meant to share layoff information and support one another, not to tear people down. If you don’t have something constructive to say, consider saying nothing at all. It’s clear some of us missed that lesson growing up.
Rather than hiding behind a screen to sow discord, let’s engage in respectful, genuine conversations. There are leaders at Elevance who are actively driving positive change and helping the company move forward, even in the face of industry-wide challenges.
Let’s focus on that progress — and act like the professionals we claim to be.
Trashing us as well. He has earned his name RATMAN. The leadership cowards hired him as their stooge because they don’t want to get their hands dirty.
Yes. Unfortunately. We’re doomed!
All IT at Elevance is a joke. Everyday it gets worse.
@OP I think you are RL yourself. you are here to get your own feedback.
A known hired g-n to layoff vp's and restructure IT through rebadging exercises. Minimal forward growth in IT. Optics to appease the shareholders/wallstreet until the backhanders get exposed again.
Ratnakar Lavu , may be ?

I don't know who that is?
