Every day this leadership continues proving how incompetent they are. Considering all the mistakes they've made in the past several years, you have to wonder how they still have their jobs. What does it take for the ELT to suffer some consequences... — read more 

Subject: Changes in the Checkpoint Product Management Team Team, I wanted to take a moment to share with you some changes that we are making to the Checkpoint Product Management team. As you may know, we are on a journey to evolve Thomson Reuters... — read more 

I've been looking to leave for a while (I don't think this is the worst place to work but I do want to move on) but I'm sadly too much of a coward to quit. Being laid-off is exactly the kind of push I need. I wish there was a way to volunteer for... — read more 

I'm getting so tired of this place and constantly having to navigate all the politics, toxicity and back-stabbing. I have a feeling that anything would be better for my blood pressure than this, even flipping burgers for minimum wage. Is it really... — read more 

You aren't going to be there long anyway.

My Linked-In feed is full of ex-TR directors or above taking C-level or executive roles at other companies. Many of them were solid with great credentials. Is TR is letting go some of its best people or are they leaving on their own? What is going... — read more 

TR is a job, nothing more nothing less. It really doesn't matter what you do, how well or poorly you do it or if you work more than 35 or so hours a week. None of that matters, they will discard you if they need you, whether you worked 100 hrs a... — read more 

If you are on the verge of retirement, want a sabbatical or simply just want out, do whatever you can to make it known you would be fine with getting RIF'd. Give them some cr-p about how much you appreciate TR and what they have done for you and... — read more 

A friend of mine told me about 10 years ago that TR would soon be shipping jobs overseas. He was retired from Dow Chemical Corporate. I argued with him that it would not happen here (Tax & Accounting) our officers are smarter than that. Actual... — read more 

Everybody here is viewed by management as replaceable. If they can find somebody cheaper to do what you do, they will. This will continue indefinitely. Nobody is safe from this. If job security is what you're looking for, start your own company. If... — read more 

One of the points mentioned when explaining severance was that we should inform them once we find another job so they can stop the severance payout. What happens if we don’t inform them once we find another job? Someone asked this question on... — read more 

To lay off people who were about to retire... just awful. Does it seem to you that the cuts are becoming more and more unscrupulous? I’m safe for now but I’m embarrassed when I know what great people are laid off. I will actively look for a new job... — read more 

Announced today that the main Charlotte office is closing and practically everyone in Tech, regardless of location, is being let go. Only keeping a dozen or so people. Acquired this company 2 years ago for over $100 million and have driven it... — read more 

Be honest now.

If this is true that TR is already doing or planning to give low performance reviews in order not to have to give Severance packages people must band together and seek legal action and not allow this to happen. The goals set in my section this year... — read more 

All the recent layoffs appear to be part of a transformation program to reduce headcount, footprint, and go digital. Are there any specific targets? How long will this last?

What gives?

Take it from somebody who was laid off about eight months ago, you'll be okay. After the first shock is gone, you'll realize that they did you a favor. It took me less than two months to find a new job, and that was when the job market was much worse... — read more 

I’m worried about layoffs, but on the other hand, it very often seems to me that layoff would bring me relief and that it would be the best thing TR has given me. Sometimes I even wish to get laid off. I don’t know anyone who experienced the... — read more 

I consider the last year, or even two, to be a waste of time here, and I am sorry that I have made any effort. I'm sorry I ever put 1 percent effort into this company. Why? Because this company does not put even 1 percent of the effort to save jobs... — read more 

Until we say that you don't have to be here. Where are you on the mood elevator today?

What are the chances that we'll see more cuts before the end of the week (mainly, today?) I wish I could relax and believe it's over but this place has pushed my anxiety to a new level in the past few years. The only consolation I have is that the... — read more 

how many survive the cut?

and those of who got whacked. Now if 2nd rate coffee doesn't make you feel wanted, nothing will.

Surviving the cycle of layoffs here roughly means prolonging the agony. They usually say that a new job is much easier to find while you already have a job, but there are a lot of those who found a job right after they got cut here much faster than... — read more 

So far I haven’t noticed that it matters whether someone is a high performer, very engaged or very professional in their job. It doesn't seem to matter at all to TR. So far I know that a lot of great people have been laid off while some of the... — read more

Same old song, just a drop of water In an endless sea All we do crumbles to the ground Though we refuse to see

A year ago we had more than twice as many people in our team as we have now. Some were laid off, some have walked out. Since there was no backfilling, those of us who are still here have basically had to double the work we were doing. Now with talk... — read more 

I recently left TR because I no longer had the patience to stay here for even a day longer while waiting for severance pay. Is it true that they have changed the severance policy in the meantime? What is the latest severance policy? Did they... — read more 

I’m looking for a new job and sending out a bunch of applications because it’s getting harder here every day. I am disappointed, but I am a little angry what they turned the company into with poor management. It used to be quite pleasant to work at... — read more 

Let me pose a question to those folks that may not be comprehending what an unacceptable work environment TR happens to be. If you had a friend or family member that came to you for career advice, and spelled out the situation within their company... — read more 

Why do people care so much about how TR will do in the future? Especially those who are easily employable and don't have to worry about their jobs? As far as I'm concerned, this place can crash and (metaphorically) burn. Actually, if that would mean... — read more

Advice is to polish your skills and resume.

How much did TR on resume help you get a new job? As for me, it didn't help. That name means almost nothing on one's resume anymore. What a pity, because once upon a time a lot of doors were open to you if you worked here. I was very disappointed... — read more
