One thing I’ve learned since joining Medtronic: I will never again work for a company that lays off employees during strong financial results. If leadership is this quick to cut people when things are good, I can only imagine how they’ll act when times are tough. I’ve been here two years, and that’s two years too long.

@bm+1jv94gfgd, doing the same, looks like I made it through this round... time to do less :) I do 4-5 hrs of work a day. I stop working after 2.
It's not "strong financial results" unless it's reflected in stock price...
"I will never again work for a company that lays off employees during strong financial results."
That list is getting smaller and smaller all the time
Some days I literally have nothing to do. I don't get any emails, IMs or have any meetings. So I get paid to work only a few hours a few some weeks. And I'm pretty sure I'm not getting laid off or I'd know by now, right? I've been subconsciously quiet quitting the last few years and am now actively quiet quitting and looking for something else if im not laid off.
"Quiet quitting" refers to employees disengaging from their work by fulfilling only their minimal job requirements without extra effort or enthusiasm, effectively "checking out" mentally while remaining physically employed. It's not a formal resignation, but a form of passive resistance, often stemming from dissatisfaction.
I am going to not exit, but I will be passively aggressive.
- I won’t come in to the office much
- I Won’t do project 6
- I won’t really care about the fake mission
- I won’t really go out of my way to work hard
- I won’t really even try to weed through the sh-t that comes up in my day to day. Whatever!
Same here. Been here 5 years. Planning my silent exit.
