Anyone working on a campus expecting to have to swipe out of the building at the end of the day? I hate to think this is the next move, but I wouldn’t be surprised.

@132 people will start flushing toxic materials or quickcrete to destroy the plumbing. Random expensive things will start being destroyed, ELT vehicles mysteriously damaged. People are not mentally well right now, so leadership is playing a dangerous game with their arrogant behavior.
The more seedy and unpopular moves ELT does to negatively affect HO associates, the more surprised I am that they haven’t installed metal detectors.
The latest FAQ states leaders will see time stamped badge swipes. What good is a time stamp if they only monitor on the way in…? Badge out swipes will be installed late May.
@ns
Too long, did not read.
ELT is making 20-30 million a year right now. The MP ages out in a few years.
Funny you think they care about long term when they’re making record profits for themselves by firing everyone.
@nc Dummy, take 5 seconds of research and look at how many companies over the years have fumbled the offshoring game chasing that sweet juicy cheap indian labor. The end product turns to complete sh1t, your customers bail on you because the product still costs the same (greed) and then your reputation goes doen the cr-pper. EDJ is experiencing a short term 'sugar high' that will crash out sooner rather than later. You seem like chubak puppet, go look at what that stuttering a$s clown did at citi with his obsession with outsourcing. They had to undo it and bring stuff back into the US. Your magical indians are not wired the same as US based associates. No matter how hard you try to force the square peg into a round hole, nobody wants them except for the greedy short sighted upper management, who frankly, would fail running lemonade stand because they have no common sense and su-k at understanding real life.
Show me in the 10k where firing people and replacing them with Indians led to a “net loss”.
I’ll wait.
@ht anything can be done for cheaper. Done correctly? No. Clear communication to branches? No. Understanding the big picture, Nope. You will outsource 1 US associate and replace them with 3 overseas contractors who will have zero Fs to give about the client and do the work incorrectly. Net loss
If it doesn’t require being in the office and being US-based, it can be done in India for cheaper.
@a4 If the work is getting done and done correctly, who gives a sh1t WHERE it is being done? Are you another simpleton in leadership who's end all be all in life is counting the bodies in the cubicals? You sound like a putz
@dj Correct. No need to track badging out of HO when our laptops track our locations. However, would not be surprised if new badges with tacking chips are put in them, for "muh culture enhancement".
No, most tracking is being done via where you logged on. Help desk can provide you dates and times.
@c8 ours does this too. With T-Mobile wireless being the only internet that works where we live, they are gonna have fun when they see mine being all over America lol
@OP It's right on brand with installing tracking software to monitor WHAT you are doing and WHERE you are doing it. I can't wait to get questions about my location because my home internet has integrated VPN and regularly bounces my location all over North America.
I can see it now... "Please explain why your location indicates you are working from a non-approved location and not the office or your home address."
Oh no! People that don't need to be in an office to get work done aren't wasting any more time than they have to? The horror! 😱
It's ridiculous that you care about where others are.
@OP, it wouldn't make sense to swipe out. Only badges work to get into the building. EJ knows when you swipe in on a floor to get to your cube. They know exactly where the employees are located.
Yes and there needs to be swiping out because too many people are just coming for an hour or two and leaving. It is ridiculous.
No, because I assume the AI is in the cameras and they are literally watching everything we do. We don’t need no stinking badges. Look up. The cameras are everywhere.
