Thread regarding AIG (American Intl Group Inc.) layoffs

How informative do you find AIG Town Halls to be?

Did we ever get anything truly useful from them?

We got stale AIG 100 cookies at a March town hall. Two months later the "Mood Elevator" was waiting to take me to the lobby on day I was RIF'ed.

I may be wrong but I don't remember getting any information except for a generalized e-mail about AIG 200. Why not an informative transparent Town Hall? With all the Senior Management we have they can't do a Town Hall and be specific on what is going on and what AIG 200 really means? I think they at least owe that to the employees at AIG. They are more transparent with the public and you hear more about what's going on in AIG from your customers. Very sad.

they are scripted and completely useless as long as we keep asking stupid questions and not have balls to bring up matters like executive pay and the decision about AIG 200 which violates all of their c-ap about transperancy

They are useless and BD and Senior Management know it. At least prior to BD when we had a Town Hall, we at least knew more about what was going on and what to expect. They were more transparent. BD and his Senior Management Town halls are just generalities repeated from the e-mails they send out. No one knows exactly what they mean. Waste of employees time.

I haven’t listened to their drivel for the past year. Scripted speech with the same buzz words and jargon used over and over. Tired of hearing about core objectives with no real answers. Who are they kidding?

If you enjoy the inflated CEO perspective from the guy making $21M and canned softball questions then it will make you feel good about the direction of AIG. Unfortunately, it is usually followed by more upper management hires and more lower level employee layoffs to pay for the execs.

It would be much more useful if employees could ask real questions and get real answers. The current format is scripted propaganda.

Nothing is ever said in Town Halls that we don't already know are that has already been released to the public. I think you really have to read between the lines as they aren't very transparent. For the most part a waste of time.
