I’d say that we are past the 50% mark. The real reason people quit their jobs is because the managers charged with ensuring their employees' success don't care enough to meet their needs as valued employees and human beings. And this is consistent... — read more 

From your friend in EM leadership. Please put your things in boxes and we’ll ship that job to a lower cost country. We get bonuses for doing that, and you at the bottom doing work get an NSI. True patriotism, true capitalism 🇺🇸🇺🇸

I read that at least one person was told NSI prior to the holiday weekend. When are the communications to be completed?

EM doesn't deserve more.

Management is going to do everything they can to use you until they don't need you any longer. Frankly, the trust was gone 3 years ago and now we're seeing the after effects. Don't make it easy for them to hurt us... Loud quit as you're pushed!... — read more

Anyone have a good attorney rec go look at PIL docs? Is there ever success getting anything covered in these outside of the standard? How do you ensure no other employer finds out of the status?

I’m one year away from being NRE (Near Retirement Eligible, 52 years old and 12 years service), and just received notice I’m NSI, with 21 days to choose either PIP or PIL. If I choose PIP and survive, and then receive a second NSI next year when I’m... — read more

I'm RE and plan to retire in 2023. If I'm ranked NSI, will I get the choice of taking the PIL v PIP? If given a choice, I want to retire with PIL and leave right away. Is this an option? I'd rather not wait until 3Q.

Not enough people are resigning! We need more quitters or else raises are going to be bad to try push more people out of the boat.

I am NOT NSI! I identify as OWD! Oh yes and all month long!!

Time for a reorg to unlock business value and leverage synergies? Ideas?

I am hearing a rumor that if you’re a large UW contributor that it’ll get you a larger raises and in December. This true? Is United way being tracked?

If you're new to EM, that's the best advice I can give you. Nothing else will ensure that your career is developing in a fast and successful manner as that. At EM, it's not about meritocracy, it hasn't been for a long while. It's all about office... — read more
