Any reliable info on layoffs?
I hope all the March and April rumors are unfounded. Times are tough, and I would personally prefer to have a job for the foreseeable future.
Cut expenses but triple travel
How can execs tell us they’re focused on trimming expenses… yet are forcing 100+ of us to travel!?! Oh, and leaders are planning another round of site visits- sites we already visited in Q4!! How are we cutting back on travel expenses?!?!
April Layoffs!
I am hearing a lot about 4/20 now. The hits just don't stop with this place.

Return to office is a farce.
Half the associates at my site still refuse to return to the office with no ramifications at all.
Anything happen today?

Sabbatical Bonus Reduction
How about that great sabbatical? Sure you get paid while off. But, your bonus is prorated for the amount of time you’re off. And then it’s NOT brought back to the baseline level it was before the sabbatical. I wonder if the bank tracks all that $$... — read more

From my experience it’s not usually merit based. I see people with half the experience and skill as others get title bumps.
