Hey Brian Gordon, it sucks to be laid off.
And no I will never speak to a News and Observer reporter!
AND we do it right before the Christmas holidays and year end busy times for families. Because that’s how much we value our employees- especially those who cover their family members under Lenovo’s insurance plans..
On the HR call yesterday- the volume of questions about insurance and HSA accounts etc was high. It really brought home the callous disregard Lenovo leadership has for their employees. So heartbreaking.
Was this happening just last Thursday or is there more to come this week?
Hi everyone, my name is Brian Gordon, and I cover technology for The News & Observer. Just posting here to see if anyone affected by the Lenovo layoffs would be willing to share a few words about how the cuts have impacted them/their departments in the Triangle area.
Any insights and time are really appreciated. Thank you!
Very true.
Gotta love this buzzword-filled pile of corporate dung:
“As you well know, Lenovo has changed a lot as a company over the years you have been following us, so not only do we regularly review our cost structure to align with external market dynamics, but we are also rebalancing some of our resources towards the growth engines in the business,” the spokesperson explained/
Lenovo: We hire the best clowns in the business to cover our butts, then get rid of seasoned talent in favor of cheaper workers from China or those well under 35 who don't know how to do the job nearly as well. But by slashing these "costs", it makes the quarterly results look good, and that's all that matters!
