@cj quiet quit, make a bit more money so that you are first on the chopping block
@by
Not just sales...lot of support infra and people from Q2C to close a deal..
@cj watch the movie Office Space for pointers. If we all stop working they can’t fire all of us. We really need a union looking out for us…. But that will never happen.
@ch For the time being.
The sales cull will begin in July as always.
@cj definitely do not tell them you want to be on the list, they will wait you out
I want to be next on the list what do i have to do? I want my unemployment and take a break from this sh-t show maybe get a trade job less drama and less stress. After 12 years here enough is enough. Whats the secret? Just stop doing all work? Dont log in at all?
@by but appears like management is working towards only keeping sales.
@br you are only talking about sales, not everyone works in sales
@ap
Laying off quarterly makes perfect sense, especially when OT can report to their investors on their analyst call, better numbers by declaring the ole "excluding exceptional items" category...
@ap
Likely first week of July AND end of June.
The early July category will be folks that have already been notified..and if they stay thru EOY..to process business/close deals ..they will get cut 1st week of July and qualify for OT Performance Bonus (likely small this year or zero LOL..but anything is better than nothing).
This happened to me, as part of the July group.
Also there was a large group that were let go at the end of June (and did not qualify for the bonus). Additionally in that same year just a few months prior (Feb / March) a large group were laid off.
Believe it, don't believe it..up to you. However if you believe this is even a small possibility I would prepare yourself financially as much as you can over the next few months. Quit believing the bullsh!t the ELT spew. They just want to keep you engaged until they show you the door. Good Luck all.
@be what is project unity
@ap learn a bit about project unity and you might think differently...
After Ayman’s first 100 when he implements a massive reorg.
@ap Nothing at this place makes very much sense.
When Mr. Antoun says. Sometime between April 20 and June 30.
It makes no sense to do layoffs in March and again in June . I don't believe there will be any layoffs in June
The only consistent thing is layoffs here. Ending of June.
Rumor is June. Major re-org included. No additional info.
It depends on if they’ve found any buyers for larger bits of the carcass.
