Are layoffs happening in Dallas and Toronto as we speak? I saw three people were laid off in Dallas two weeks ago from Legal and Corporates. I thought the worst is over until thanksgiving of 2020 - the usual two yearly restructuring.
Being in corporates, I am worried. I have mortgage and a baby on the way. I joined TR hoping stability but it’s worrisome.
Yes, twenty people laid off in Dallas office last week. All on the programming team. Dilly dilly!
Certain parts of the business are doing very well, but even in those parts they are definitely looking to cut. Hiring contractors, shifting work to India and overloading loyal employees.
You would have to be blind not to see what is going on.
Working hard at TR no longer gurantees a place in the managements hearts. They wont remember you cause to them, you are just a headcount. Layoff becomes an annual event. Objectives and annual performance review is just a show. If I were you, I would find something elsewhere. Since you never know when it will hit your spot even if you dont get hit this round or next.
I dont see other companies have to go through this kind of game as often as us! This becomes a norm here, no?
