Just heard more rumblings of more layoffs coming end of September. Good gawd this management is piss poor here at ADP. They need to layoff every one of the VP's and higher!

Genius? You may find that you think that way, until you are the one laid off. Then, it becomes important and personal.
Working more hours has never been an issue with veteran employees. ADP has always had a knack for getting hours above and beyond 8 per day, or 40 per week.
Far less pay - see my original statement. Sounds great until you are affected. Generally, history has shown that you start with low pay, work hard for modest increases, and, if you last, eventually you will be considered too expensive.
Sadly, we will never know what happens to you, but good advise is to watch out. Once you are experienced, you may be judged too expensive, but then, you have to make the grade first and judging from your post, you may not last long enough to matter.
@10GBKCO2-OP, I'm not sure I understand why you believe ADP's decision to layoff is piss poor if it saves the employment of many others who are willing to work far more hours for far less pay to gain the company revenue needed to lead in this industry?
I think there has been no more genius of a decision ever made.
Stay READY and you will never have to Get READY.
Just saying, spend your time and resources wisely if an uncontrollable future awaits you.
Yep, moving lots of jobs to the hurricane-prone areas was a brilliant move for ADP wasn't it? Orlando, FL area and Norfolk, VA area. Hope there are enough people around the other low-paying supercenters to take the overflow of client calls. Oh, but wait. many may get MORE frustrated by that craziness and bail out completely. Lol.
More layoffs so they can hire in hurricane prone parts of the country and not plan for redundancy. Sounds like a #WinAsOne idea! Bleeping mo–ns
Keep in mind that the annual stock vesting is in September, and it would be timely to see both voluntary and planned layoffs in synch with a post-September date. Usually tons of “with mixed emotions we are announcing the early retirement of Mrs. Doe, despite her being only 35 years old” type of emails about to get rolled out.
"so the shock and awe is gone". So very true
Kay sera sera.....
More work, less knowledge, less pay for those who remain. Congratulations to the departed, departing and the remnant which remains.
We lost 2/3 in our department on July 26th. Prior to that we lost two to Verp in October and 1 departmental transfer..... so there are 3 left to do the job of 12... while management is making it seem like they are doing us a favor by having off shored personnel “help us out”. So on top of all that has to be done, I’m training my replacement for when my role is eliminated. I have heard of other layoffs as well.... so I’m not sure it’s been quiet lately. I think it’s just becoming the norm and unfortunately we are all becoming accustomed to it- so the shock and awe is gone:(.
I guess we’ll have to wait and see if it’s true. Like I posted several months ago, end of fiscal used to mean safe for a year, not necessarily the case in recent years.
That stinks! I was just thinking it had been awfully quiet.
