@OP, I updated my resume and created a cover letter today at work. Such a gratifying feeling for me.

@bj Fantastic strategy!!!! EVERYONE who was demoted should do this. Serves PP right for how disgustingly greedy she is.

I'll be making sure I waste more in resources than my pay was cut. Oh well...disengaged employees can be quite a nuisance, or so I've heard

Upvote if you're leaving either way. Demotion or not, it's time to leave this place. 10 years wasted.

I was demoted and will be working 15% less hours to be fair to my salary that took the same cut. Time to look elsewhere.

I’ve always believed it’s easier to find a job when you’re employed. And this job market can take time to find something decent and ages for something good.

Why not accept the offer? Search for a new job on their dime. And then give the middle finger when you accept an offer.

This is the more of the unofficial Reimagined - quiet firing.

RTO was step one, the 6 month anxiety torture period was step two, witnessing your peers get the axe and being demoted are step 3. There are more unofficial steps ahead.

Next will be be further loss of flexibility. Big Brother needs to make sure you're in the office 8 hours a day, minimum. We already swipe in, now we'll swipe out, too, and we'll also be back to the office 5 days a week. They've already told us this is coming, even. Haven't you been listening to Big Brother? PP has.

After the loss of flexibility, there will be the enormous push for offshoring/outsourcing every little thing they can followed by or congruent with the AI massacre.

Take the job but don't make long term plans to stay. Run away and don't look back. The culture is officially dead.

I’m quiet quitting until I find something else. This is so disrespectful. Calling it Reimagined while demoting and laying off colleagues that have worked their a$$ for this company over the years. All while claiming YOU are accountable yet making $29 million a year. Sociopath. You just want higher profit margins.

yep, going 100% space as minimal as humanly possibly. Bank up some extra cash in the mean time.
