Anyone else just wishing for all of this to be over? The anxiety of waiting is so detrimental to everyone's health. Office is quiet as a church mouse, I do not know if it was leaked from within or one of the disgruntled SVP's earlier this week who got terminated.
BUT I just prefer to know already... a week more of this is torture, honestly. Rip the band-aid and let people know, dude.
@ae I heard you will be rifed. Sorry. We will all miss you. Now GTFO!!!
@OP Ya I kinda wish they would have never mentioned 11/20. Just go back to the WorldCom days where Mgr meets you at the entrance then escorts you back out.
@a8 There's been NO all-hands meeting sent for GNT.
What are you saying? I'm in GNT but no invite for an all hands call on the 20th. So does that mean I will be RIF'd?
@ac GNT is global network and tech. Data Engineering- why?
@aa What is GN&T
I hear union members won’t be touched
@a8 GN&T all hands on the 20th? Is this the all clear you're safe call?
@a8 so no all hands means you are RIF'd?
It’s happening on the 20th. Already got an all hands. I’m in GN&T
@a5 haha all the victim headless chickens voting this down. You will always be losers.
Harsh caring words here...
If you can't handle it..then stay off this site, do your job and wait for the 20th.
Trust me, coming back to this site is going to make it worse for yourself.
Get a grip, get your head down, show up, work hard, be a success. Best way to avoid anxiety and to increase your success chances. Stop being victims.
It’s so strange. Feels like a weird kind of limbo while we wait to find out who gets let go, and who’s still left standing. Some of my projects were put on hold.
I’m attending my team meetings and everyone is acting normal and even cheerful. Is it all a forced façade?? Because internally, I am freaking out! Feels like the elephant in their room that no one is talking about, except on the board.
My blood pressure monitor just arrived. Not kidding.
I vote for just ripping the band-aid off, and just tell everyone.... but no, they will wait just before a long holiday week. Merry Riff-Mas everyone!!!
Worst part is.... what if it's not on the 20th? There is so much buildup for that day, layoff's are happening that is 100%, but what if they wait till Jan '26? or another date? Have everyone on edge for weeks/months.
I agree, just rip the band-aid.
