They are exceedingly careful not to actually run afoul of the law.
Amazing how many really good people got let go. They let go sales people who were really performing. Seems strange that would happen since pipeline is the issue. Anyone have a list of people that were let go? Would love to know if a law suit has been filed!
GST in the context of the current conversation is the acronym for a team, Global Service Transition. Think of them as the team of project managers etc responsible for transitioning a service, program, asset etc... into production for the customer or end user.
I heard there is lawsuit in the making....
Anyone considering lawsuit ? ???? It has to start by someone and i am sure the rest will follow through...
@louu+12VR0pMg what does Appleby mean? And what is a done deal? the layoffs? something else?
They are playing games with everyone below management scale now. I think they are laying off people in phases and less than 50 employees in a patch so they wouldn't be liable by law to apply the 60 days notice per WARN. This place will end up in a big law suit from its own employees. The way they are treating their staff like sh– now.
Appleby.......It's a done deal
Watch your backs, next wave of layoffs Spring 2020.
The company has been going downhill since "globalisation" 4 years ago. GTS was hit and sounds like most teams outside of operations are losing one head per team.
This company is going down and the Executive are basically milking the hell out of it. Bunch of thieves and no real respect from clients. The funny thing is all clients know how this company is sinking and the sales folks still required to sell!! what a tough job! If you arent connected to someone hi up, your work ethic, skills, encouragement, certificates, educations wont save your a–. you will be out in one of the layoff waves PERIOD. And dont say no I am different.
Global Service Transition
Maybe global security team?
Instead of a negative review, could you please say what GST stands for? I am not familiar with it and stopped trying to guess. I feel very badly for anyone that it laid off and apologize if my inquiry offended anyone.
What is GST? Where and how many? Thanks!
happening right now. GST being hit. don't know who else
Interesting ... we are already barebones AF
You will know soon. By end of week.
Really hope that i'm on the list. This company makes me sick some times.
How large???? :-o
Ill second later this week . its a large one .
January 16th or 17th. Fact. Don't tell me I am wrong! Not going to be good. Right after that 401k will be changed and not for the better.😞
Next 10 days I'm hearing.
The fact that this comment has been up for 24 hours and no one has responded speaks volumes.
No one knows, and it’s driving everyone nuts!
