Thread regarding ExxonMobil Corp. layoffs

Yesterday’s equipment for tomorrow

They are ending support for the current corp phones soon. So if you have an iPhone 10, it’s no longer supported. Apple is releasing the iPhone 16 in a few days. But what does EM offer? Yup, an iPhone 14. Why can’t IT or Corporate Procurement negotiate better deals to allow for better dates equipment? Over time, the Corp is both wasting money on upgraded phones and also wasting employees time with subpar equipment. Make it make sense!

@OP, subpar equipment? What are you doing on your company phone? Streaming? Gaming? Even IPhone 7 works for email and text messaging. Why do you even want a phone? With a phone the company is just keeping tabs on you and making you work even in your downtime.

They are offering me iPhone 16e for free and iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus for an additional charge.

That being said, why do I need the latest iPhone model as a work phone? I just need to take some calls, check zoom messages, and check emails. If I were a shareholder, I wouldn’t want the company spending money on the latest model.

Why would one care about what model company phone they give out? Not like you can use it for anything cool anything anyway. Bro, get yourself a good personal phone and forget about company phone.

They offered me the 15 series. I didn’t see 14 in the choices.

@a4 Thanks for proving my point. You must have negotiated the contract with the vendor and then reported the huge savings on your annual PDS. Keep su-king like a vacuum bud!

Bro. I hope they PIPed you. The iPhone 17 is being released not the 16. Work on your counting skills or memory skills or both. Get back to working your PIP!
