Thread regarding Colgate-Palmolive Co. layoffs

People Eyes Are Now Open

This recent layoff really opened the eyes of many people. You can't have a department meeting to discuss the layoffs and new organization changes hoping to raise hopes and morality knowing we have 2018 and 2019 layoffs still looming. Boys and Girls, in upper management, people are not stupid.

I would call this layoff...getting rid of who I don't like or who I feel threatened by. Now these managers can barely look these folks in the face and avoid at all cost. Cowards.

Most people are going to avoid the company party. Who wants to party with two more years of layoff coming. Some are saying new notice will be going out 1Q. Crazy Times. God Help Us.

I have seen the worst in people. Behaviors of hate, revenge and just because I can attitude from management. It's truly an organization out of control. For example, some people who were let go in 2011 the hell extended into the following year with their bonus rating being screwed and getting next to nothing because their VP/Management wanted to f--- with them one more time and simply because the system allowed them to get away with it. The same VP/Management will be doing it again next year to the new group of people who got their pink slip Nov 1st. Sadly, management thinks it funny and with HR losing their jobs they know they will get away with it. I sat in those calibration meetings for years and the lies they tell to give more money and higher rating to one verses the other would make your skin boil. I hate to say this but it's not about the work. It's about how I perceive you in my own opinion. When management tells a story, they make it so convincing to the point no one will question it. I already know for some their bonus will be next to nothing in March and they did good work. Sad and pathetic. For some it will be because of race, while for others it will be because I just want to get you one last time and you don't need the high ratings since you are out the company. Amazing...How can this be happening? Easy...No one to put management in their place from the top. I wish we had an outside company do the ratings. It would change the playing field. .. Until then, I am sorry.

You think they're open now? Wait til you see what happens over the next 6 months. Don't believe a word management says about future plans or how big or small layoffs will be.

They know what's coming but would never tell the minions because it's bad for morale. All I'll say is, you ain't seen nothing yet!
