Thread regarding NCR Corp. layoffs

Another All Hands - Another Waste of an Hour

The latest all hands meeting with our wonderful MELTS ( M0R0NIC ELT STOOGES ) has only reinforced that they are completely clueless about running this company. I guess they think we all enjoy listening to them ramble on about their journeys and how wonderful it is to be able to hop a plane and fly around the world to experience new cultures while watching the company slowly die!

For me, the most interesting person during the meeting was our beloved CTO (Clueless Technical Officer) who went on to describe that our software has a lot of bugs and that he is now implementing this new idea of testing the software before releasing it. That should help – right??

All this adds up to the unfortunate conclusion that this company is doomed…and this was reinforced by our pygmy CFO, who again, like the same old broken record, blames HW for losses during the quarter…which by the way he claimed was $3 Million…I got news for everyone…it was much higher than that…maybe he should become a chef because he sure is working hard cooking those numbers!!

He might want to look across from him at George Sloan who was an advocate of “getting out of the HW business because it is the right thing to do” as the reason for sliding HW sales. If old George needs a refresher, we have it on video where he speaks that very phrase.

I have a hard time attending these meetings simply because it turns my stomach knowing that these id--ts can sit in front of us (theoretically anyway as they were hidden away in the studio with armed security guarding the door), lie directly to us, and then go about their business as if they have done a wonderful thing for us!!

And of course, right after the meeting what did we receive…another survey…go figure!! Well, the army of HR folks we have hired need to have something to do, right??

“You spoke…and we ignored it” should be the new catch phrase for this group!!

WoW!!!! If only they applied this concept with OFS! Talk about a Sh-t Show! But it seems that the powers that be are all in on this.

@mp If your comments/emails are so obvious that someone can basically guess who wrote them, how is that the fault of the company? Jesus.

I know we all love to hate on the company here but some of the stuff you people come up with is ridiculous. Just grasping at anything to be up in arms about since there obviously are currently no large layoffs happening.

@h0
Yup, in fact I even had AI rewrite my comments so it wouldn't sound like my other emails and my manager looked right at me and said is this your comment. He then later in the meeting tried to pin a different comment on me.

I remember the surveys, the managers nearly forced you to do them till 100% of their team completed the survey. Employees were told it was confidential, but I can tell you with 100% certainty your manager saw your answers and knew exactly who said what.

Why even have a survey? I can answer that, it’s so the managers can weed out anyone that’s not drinking the poison, most are to scared to say anything except they are happy and love everything about their job.

If you decide to not do the survey, your manager will be hating on you making life even more miserable.😞

All they want to do is brag about SW sales. But how much of that SW is running on NCR branded HW vs. other HW vendors? My guess is 80% or higher on NCR branded HW. So if or when NCR stops HW sales, SW sales will also sink “like the Titanic”.

Maybe that’s what the ELT wants?

Another survey means more layoffs, it begins with "based on feedback from our employees on the most recent survey..."
