To the people bashing boomers, I hate to tell you that most of the c-suite and svp’s aren’t boomers. Yes Frank is.
The boomers that sit in cubes are impacted by the same BS as everyone else. They want work-life balance, despise sapience, badge swipes and RTO like everyone else.
Stop trying to divide us and stand together!
Someone mentioned "Boomers" are slow - taking hours instead of minutes to do a job. Being a Gen-X, I have to remind you of Sapience. I used to PLOW through case work. Then came along Sapience to measure productivity. So my stats went from performer to slacker in short order. I knocked out my case work for the day, so now Sapience thinks I'm sc--wing off the rest of the day. Once I realized it was sc--wing me, I pumped the brakes. Now that 30 min case takes me over an hour. Gotta get that productive Sapience time in!
Don't hate the player. Hate the game.
Call me a boomer if you want, but I’ve had full remote capabilities since 1995
Yo but none of you have a life to be out here talking about unity at Fiserv. Get some hobbies dawg for real
@b5+1jkzby22q Paying you more would ruin the bonus incentive for your boomer overlords. N-O.
Quit whining and go to the office
Ok, boomer.
@cj+1jkzby22q No more remote work for you dad.
RTO is a First Data concept. It in no way reflects the original Fiserv remote as a great concept for associates. The reason 2020 was not an interruption of service was directly attributed to the Fiserv remote acceptance of work arrangements. Genx and below are clueless as to how the real world works.
Yea to those that don't get it, "boomer" isn't necessarily the baby boomer generation it's just how younger people refer to older people these days.
The idea that we are supposed to drive in traffic and sit in a cubicle for 10 hours a day, 5 days a week, is a "boomer" concept, because only boomers were alive when that was a viable deal.
Back then remote work wasn't an option, back then America actually produced things, back then you could afford a house and support a family off one salary and didn't have to compete with a billion Indians and insane inflation.
Boomers tend to be slower workers also, I've noticed something that takes a younger worker 30 minutes to do can take a boomer 2 hours or more. Boomers cope with this fact by pretending it isn't efficiency that matters, but how long you sit in a cubicle. They pretend that the younger worker who finished the task in 1 hour then left is "lazy" and they are a "hard worker" because they took 10 hours to do it.
Many boomers also have miserable domestic situations (that generation is when divorce rates exploded). Many are so miserable at home they would rather stay in the office to avoid their spouse... which is fine, but then they push for RTO and pretend its about other stuff like "collaboration".
So yes RTO is essentially a "boomer" concept resulting from old people trying to make younger people as miserable as they are.
The downvotes on logical posts tell you all you need to know about why Fiserv is going downhill.
Stop trying to hoard wealth and making the younger generation worse off culturally. Get a backbone.
All of the posts that get down votes are from shills
Millennials and GenZ are the laziest and whiniest little bi$tches around. Go do some work and quit complaining about having to come to the office
Boomer is a mindset, not an age
Listen my older compadre…I love older people they can be full of wisdom and stories and if they are inclined to a good attitude then they make great coworkers. But I seem to be running into a lot of older people who don’t seem to realize that the average worker nowadays is probably twice as productive as one from the 80’s and early 90’s not due to work ethic but due to advancements in technology. Us younger people would like more money, orrrrr alternatively I would take a dismantling of the big brother system we have in place here. I get my job done…I get other peoples jobs done. I will not get paid more shooting for the moon with my efforts, if I did then I would. So either pay us more, or get rid of the stupid tracking software. Sorry to paint you guys as the scapegoats but I don’t have issues with the 30 year olds unless they lack a mind of their own. The boomers on the other hand will literally say “so what get your 8 hours sapience you lazy wippersnapper” when they didn’t even have fu--ing email growing up. You see the discrepancy? I hope I’ve articulated my point well. The system ain’t all sunshine’s and rainbows and I have no obligation to like it or oblige it in totality. This company has taught me that every man if for themself.
Everyone's already divided id--t. It's the execs vs those who actually do work. And you're deciding to lick boots for table scraps. Grow up.
Frank is, Gibbons is, Wilcox is, Foskett is, Chariello is… say what ?
This is the most boomer post I’ve ever read in my life. Clearly you are unfamiliar with the internet’s age dichotomy: you’re either a boomer or a zoomer, no inbetween. Get with the times, gramps
