Thread regarding ViaSat Inc. layoffs

I really don't like how Viasat handles talent mobility, promotion and etc.

This is 100% on pathetic PNC

And since hiring / promotion process is not fair anyway, F it, let managers pick whoever they want, at least it's not wasting other people's time!

It really is all about who you know, not what you bring to the table anyways.

Performance, skills, experience, none of it matters. If you’re in the right circle, “someone’s friend”, that’s all it takes to get promoted.

This is what hurts Viasat and it’s going to hold the company stuck at where it is

It's funny, before I was laid off I was promoted. Which tells me it wasn't about performance and all the extra effort I put in didn't really matter. Worked out in the end since I was given a hefty bonus/severance and found a job almost immediately after. I actually ended up getting paid more for being laid off. That's Viasat for you.

Well duh yeah.
It’s a cr-p company that has lost its way since the founder turned into Grampa Simpson and the place runs on obedience and deference without noticing the emperor has no clothes.
