Thread regarding Citrix Systems Inc. layoffs

Sadly, this type of economic disparity has always existed, you just never saw it on full display when it was BAU.

For the rank and file employees, how should we feel now that the 2022 VCIP is in the bank? Looks like a joke at 53% target less taxes and personal deductions right?

That takes the f*cking cake. What a pile of *ssholes. To my team mates, I apologize in advance for the work that I will be half-heartedly doing from now until when I am laid off or leave of my own accord. Thankfully, I can exploit Agile and just make up stories that my manager and even my team mates who work in their own little silos cannot comprehend, then, massively inflate the story points estimate, then complete the work in a few hours and then train up and job hunt for 90% of each sprint. I didn't used to be like this, they've turned me into this person.

How can ELT look at themselves in the mirror. I will certainly never join a company where I see their name. All cowards, all sc-m, back stabbing assh*les!

Why the CFO who worked since March, gets $3.5m??? Buddy of Calderoni?

If you would like to know what 'class warfare' is, this is an example. Hint: 'they' are winning, none of us are 'them'.

They destroyed the company, why should they stay?

When I Leeds through this report I think, “Is this how much someone’s integrity costs? Is this how much it takes to be comfortable with thousands of people despising me?” Maybe the answers are somewhere in those payoffs.

The other prevailing thought is the reality, and inevitability, of being laid off. Because the day the sale is complete a lot more people than just Bobby Knuckles, Tony the Gnome, Dimmel, Joke-im, and the rest of the Citrix millionaires club will be hitting the bricks.

If you are not actively engaged in searching for new employment — get going RIGHT NOW. It usually takes a few months to get an offer — best case — so please start with whatever your first step is today. Do not delay.

If you have started your search, or if you’ve found something new — help someone who’s behind you. The Citrites I’ve worked with over the many years measure value in their self worth, and their integrity — not a golden PRSU payoff. Do what’s right, and what’s better, and leave the disgusting, self serving existence to the Citrix millionaires club.

Last word… we own the world we built, not them. They wouldn’t know how to plug in a server, let alone build something that innovates the incredible world that you and I helped build. There will come a day when we all have to settle up, and dollar bills aren’t the currency needed for peace. Sure, they might be spending the rest of their days on a series of fabulous Hawaiian golf vacations… but they will have found their way their, bought their plane tickets, or electronically keeping track of their extravagantly horrible golf handicap with the applications and technology that WE provide to them. We own the world — not them. I’m out (mic drop)

What an absolute disgrace

It's like they're winning the Florida state lottery.

Who will run the company? Citrix was supposed to be the dominant culture according to the All hands. The ELT acted like they would be there after merger.

Money well spent! :facepalm:

Yes. According to page 56 each executive officer’s employment is terminated immediately following the merger

And if reading the doc correctly, all ELT will be let go at merger?

Congrats to all.

Donna is way over paid! She is so out of touch. Citrix’s culture has been a nightmare for years and she does nothing. Does she work? Citrix has one of the worst cultures I have seen.

Donna N. Kimmel.. What a f*cking buffoon. One of the most tone deaf and out of touch people I've ever met.

I always shook my head when she was strutting around HQ. Wearing more money in clothing, accessories, and handbags than many people made in a month.

Who the f*ck wears $1k ferragamo heels to work at a company like ours?
