Luckily, those RSU contracts with the devil, that required me to sacrifice my self-respect in hawking lies and sacrifice my morals and ethics by being complicit in the abuse of customers, will soon turn into highly-coveted toilet paper. I've never been so ashamed of the company I work for and the reasons I've stayed. EOJ ... and ... EOZ ... that's me and my legacy.
Does anyone else feel as dirty as I do?
Seriously?? There is still lots of cutting and dead weight still left at Broadcom. My teammates practice interview questions all day because they are trying to get another job. Our manager is doing it too. They give all their work to a couple H1bs. Their country must be a total sh*t hole to put up with their shenanigans. I do some work, but not my best. I still got 1 last round probably because I know my managers secret (he’s having an affair with subordinate)..
@5juy+13XfuLti more like Hock cutting your leg off and then demanding you run a 10K.
This could be an interesting challenge for Hock's business model. When you run lean and already cut down to the bone it is kind of hard to cut much further and make much of a difference in the bottom line. It's kind of like being anorexic and claiming you're going to save money by cutting back on groceries.
@GetRealsndGetOut I think your missing HoLeeFuk’s subtle point....
It seems HoLee is referring to Corona and what might be impending mass layoffs to preserve cash....
@SleeplessInPittsburgh
I'm assuming you are a mainframe developer. Run Forrest run!
@HoeLeeFuk
Be vigilant? Be vigilant like a fish in a barrel?
Does Broadcom only hire crazy people or do they have an extensive crazy training program? Either way, it's working. Must be just like shooting vigilant fish in a barrel.
@ulti.. yes mid year has been kicked off but the urgency doesn’t make sense given the timeline..I’ve seen the charts...the request might be something more nefarious related to what’s happening to every other company right now. Be extra vigilant no matter what role you have, times are a changin fast...
WeMightAllBeFuckedSoon If you are a manager, or even an actual employee, then you would know that mid-year rankings are going on, as they do every year.
What do you want me to tell you? That I feel like a wh–e too? That it's ok to be a wh–e? You work for a soul-less company that couldn't care less about customers and cares even less about you. Deception and immorality is an occupation that pays just like anything else. Just keep taking sleeping pills and don't make eye contact with other people. You'll be fine until it's over and when it's over you'll have gained all kinds of unique experiences to prepare yourself as a future felon.
Now, how does that make you feel? Wear it because you own it.
My bosses boss asked me to create stack rankings where each stack is by the role. Managers, developers. He said don’t worry about infra/testing. What does that mean? He isn’t planning anything or not to stack rank them because they are all going anyway?? He wants this report today. I will have to call him back. He called me on my vacation that started yesterday. He has never called me. Why didn’t he speak to my manager?!?
I think non-essential teams will be the ones most affected by the economic results of this pandemic.
I was just asked to cut my teams budget
all that s—s is the timing, feeling a weight lift off my shoulders
Kind of glad I never went down that route but left as soon as I had an offer I liked.
Sell what you are vested in before someone blows the whistle
I think those RSUs will be soon useless. Time to stop making excuses and use this time to move on.
Welcome to the club!
