Thread regarding CenturyLink layoffs

Received bonus and got laid off

Really awful. Did it happen to anyone else that they got laid off shortly after they got the bonus???

It’s my fault that I thought the bonus meant some security, so I was unprepared for the layoff. That’s what they do, give people bonus so that they calm down and don’t start looking for other jobs because of possible dismissals. They take advantage of us till the very end. Shame.

Sounds like another robo anti union site, and a phishing site for HR on how to anger their employees.
I understand Centurylink has laid off 40 folks in Oregon.

“ don't complain about what non-union employees get, you get what your union negotiates”

Actually the one complaining on the post is the one that got the bonus and laid off you mo–n, Obviously your management I can tell from your IQ

My coworkers are all crowing that we got a raise this week, how could they lay us off? Geez. Anyone that dumb to think because we got a raise they won't cut us, deserves to be cut. The SRO flat told us half of us are gone.

Maybe you should complain to the union... file a grievance see how far that gets you...

I did, nothing happened. They protect there own...

Again... How can my union president with 12 years less than myself in the same job title get to keep his job while the rest of us are let go.
