Every All Hands lately just leaves me more frustrated than the last. They talk in circles, never really get to the heart of the matter. There’s no steady vision—just constant pivots based on whatever seems to stick that week. Not a single word about how this affects folks on the ground—our roles, growth, or even promotions. Nothing about the stock, either. It's like the honest, grounded conversations we used to have here are long gone. Just a whole lot of fluff now.

They turned off q&a 15 minutes in after getting too many real questions 🤣
This All hands was the worst ever. Still no RIFs. Guess we are safe.
"Leadership" didn't allow questions to be asked they didn't address people's actual concerns. They don't have a plan and they don't care because everyone you saw speaking today will retire comfortably. I've been with GP for slightly over 15 years and I've never seen na--d apathy like this from those in charge.
Our all hands and quarterly earnings report just read like ChatGPT printouts now. "Resharpen our focus," "cost synergies," "go to market strategies." He speak in platitudes. It really is an insult to the intelligence of both employees and investors. No wonder the stock is in the toilette, he's writing book reports for novels he's never read. That All Hands was a complete waste of time.
All hands to me are kind of pointless. I get why it is like this. It's addressing to 27k people across the globe, so it will never be honest, grounded stuff that we want. It will be all PR driven messages. It hardly answers the questions with clarity that we need, and defeats the purpose of this.
It was the same at my old place as well.
This could have been an email.
not one mention of the thing the majority of people are anxious about...layoffs. they pitched themselves softball questions and then the people at the top of the food chain congratulated the other people at the top of the food chain.
I kind of liked how they went over the ohi survey. Results had to be much worse than anticipated. Good job everybody!
Cameron makes millions of dollars a year. He can't really relate to the 99% of us that would worry about paying off a mortgage or feeding their families. :/ I'm not saying he's a bad person but he is out of touch.
I MISSED IT. Any questions about layoffs or budget cuts?
Not sure where they were getting the questions from either.
