RDS is bouncing back and the market is recovering yet moral internally remains low.
Could it be due to ongoing re orgs, lack of growth opportunities as the culture remains in a low trust environment?
My networks inform me of ongoing reorganizations and new policies whereby MOR is not mandatory rather a direct message you are mapped or redundant.
I'm curious if there is will be any steady state or is the lack of security and looking over one's shoulder the nimble way?
Cost cutting is resulting in low morale. Getting rid of job grade 2 and above roles to save on bonus payments. No pension plans for new hires. Sending work to Poland and India. Reducing vacation time for new hires.
Hush layoffs are ongoing
Same workload with half the people; no wonder all I hear is people looking for their own exit strategies.
plenty are looking for exit strategies because of a stressful environment resulting in personnel reductions and increasing workloads.
Agree with the business decision to go Bangalore if I were the EC. They all retire well and comfortable. Rest pick up the pieces with no job, depression and ageism at the workplace.
The Bangalore guys are cheap so perfect to cut cost. Knowledge can be built up. Maximise your profits first by lowering cost. Last year's profits have increased. Give Bangalore 10 years, they will also become the next dinosaurs for Shell but still cheap. Until the high paid suits in HQ find AI solutions that can replace them. It's business. Don't get personal.
@RpfyfXJ-Ebrt- no company is in the ‘employment’ business. If employment is high, get rid of them, now what?. I’ve seen the ‘less time’ folks trying to learn from the dinosaurs . The Bangladore guys have no idea how to do anything BUT is cheap labor. She’ll is a scam
Job security and retiring in a job is a way of the past. Whatever the industry, AI is going to take away jobs. Enjoy the ride with Shell but always look for Plan B. Don't get mad when they layoff, get smart.
You’ll wish you were old school when they label you too old to contribute; 35? 45? Dinosaur? Short-sighted moron. What comes around, goes around. Hope you enjoy dining on a fresh can of cat food in retirement....idiot
Old school you are a dinosaur...going to be extinct like Kodak
You do your job, make contributions, put in your years, earn your pay - what’s wrong with working towards a pension? Top heavy....really? Alternatively, why don’t you aspire to get your a-- fired/laid off at 45 years old and not worry about a pension. Am sure your wife and kids would really appreciate that. Idiot.
Too many leads managers Shell remains top heavy with employees working towards a pension
AI better hurry up. Those left will be so overloaded the product output will be laden with HSE issues. A ship without a rudder.
When A.I is introduced and implemented the next wave of layoffs will be drastic.
Profit up # of employees will still go down
Both of these replies are bang on in every way
I assume these commits are from US employees, while us Canadians feel the same
They are not done yet! Keep the base and outsource as needed. http://fortune.com/2018/01/24/royal-dutch-shell-lower-oil-prices/
Low trust? More like no trust. Profit first people second
