Our entire staff was let go yesterday except me and one other guy. Ironically both me and the other guy were actively job searching and both of us got offers this week. So we are leaving too. I felt bad giving my two weeks after the entire department was depleted but it’s not like I knew it was going to happen. Not sure what my boss is going to do…
He’s pretty disgruntled. Executive team is actively hated by us all.
Questions:
Yes we are client facing. And yes we were
all busy with projects. I think it was just cost cutting layoffs.

We were all busy on projects
Why should the drones care to try to transform this sh|thole company? That never works. People don't leave companies; they leave managers.
Yes my mother told me to be polite but also told me not to take any sh-t from anyone. We have been lied to about merit increases the executives all hit big money and we get sh-t
@ndx+1ii5eh2J - another Mikey's golden coffee boy - go on and make Mikey Shouty Face a cup of tea.
When they decided to let the whole team go, except 2 of you.. what was everyone working on? I mean, were they scratching around looking for something to do? Or actually busy working on projects!? How they expecting any work to get done if they lay off a whole team!
I know they need to cut down amount of people.. but just sounds ridiculous to cut so many from 1 unit! --- unless you were a small team anyway...
Plus nothing this company does surprises me!
To the original poster, you have nothing to feel bad about. Your actions are a consequence of how the company treated you. I’m sure your former boss understands.
@aft+1ii5eh2J - Yes, we are training the people, giving opportunities to people and regions which are competitive and have resources of high tech standards.
Obviously, by the language on your post, we know that you are not the brightest cookie in the jar. Our current process of culling will take care of you.
We need people who support us in the journey of transformation. Either you are with us or against us. There is no grey area. Hope this explains and by the didn't your mother teach you to be polite when posting / talking in public
Never mind, we got Man United bottom of the table just by doing some free work for them...

And you'll see that over the past two years whilst you've got a HUGE 0.00% pay-rise, and what must be in excess of 10,000 are about to stop being able to put food on their family table - old Mikey-boy's raked in a 114% par-rise for the stellar job he's doing...
32% was last year, its "only" 8% this year...

I'd like 8% too please, only mine won't be $1.2m
: @fbv+1ii5eh2J DUCK you ! You should train your people
@zzw+1ii5eh2J where did you hear CEO got a 32% raise and CFO 112%? If you have URL show it here
CEO got a 32% raise and CFO 112% though, guess you gotta fire people to pay for those raises
Is you team direct client facing delivery? Or a corporate support function?
You can hate as much as you want, but long story short, we have to do what we have to do to transform the company. Thank you for all the good work you did for the company and good luck in your future endeavours.
