What are they not telling us?

I worked for Dell for 20 years and I was told that I can't recieve references from management or co workers. Nor can active Dell employees contact me post layoff. Has this happened to others?

Laptop, badge and COU and he said also password. Why? Is this the standard now?

Worst CISO ever. Spineless a-s who can’t stand for sh-t.

Do you think there is any value in Pulse Survey?

Nothing seems to change.

Things are even getting worse the more we complain.

This is optional. But it's optional.

It's anonymous. Almost.

Can anyone confirm the great Mr Bob T is still at fis or left last week?

1. Meta's CTO, Andrew Bosworth, admitted the company's AI reorganization was poorly communicated and that leadership did "an atrocious job explaining the vision."

https://www.inc.com/jessica-stillman/the-worst-its-ever-been-why-metas-massive-ai-reorg-backfired-spectacularly/91363370

1. Bosworth acknowledged employee morale has likely reached "the worst it's ever been."

2. The new Applied AI division left many engineers feeling directionless, unsupported, and disconnected from leadership.

3. One major problem was excessively large management spans, with some managers overseeing well over 20 direct reports.

4. Employees reported feeling like anonymous members of oversized, hastily assembled teams rather than valued contributors.

5. Meta now plans to cap managers at roughly 20 direct reports, reduce unnecessary manager changes during reorganizations, and introduce AI coaching tools.

6. Organizational psychologist Bob Sutton noted that research has long shown large teams suffer from coordination, collaboration, and communication problems.

7. Studies indicate that smaller teams are particularly important for creative, innovative, and highly interdependent work like AI development.

8. Research covering more than 50 million papers, patents, and software projects found teams with fewer than five members were most likely to produce disruptive innovations.

9. The article compares Meta's situation to Jeff Bezos' "Two Pizza Rule," which advocates keeping teams small enough to be fed with two pizzas.

10. As Amazon evolved, it shifted toward assigning a single accountable leader to large initiatives while preserving clear ownership and coordination.

11. Meta's reorganization appears to have done neither: teams remained very large without strong centralized ownership, contributing to confusion and declining morale.

12. The article warns that current trends toward eliminating middle management can backfire, particularly in knowledge work requiring creativity and close collaboration.

13. Leadership coach Beth Steinberg argues that managers with too many reports cannot effectively coach, develop, or support employees, leaving them only able to push work forward.

14. The overall lesson is that organizations seeking flatter structures should carefully balance efficiency with effective management, communication, and team size, especially in innovation-driven environments like AI.

Anybody else have their Co-Pilot surreptitiously shut down?

AI first right?!

I would love some honest comms. Just tell us the truth, or is the truth too scary..?

My manager moved to another team so what's the point?? Lol

I'm sure it's not anonymous so does it even matter?

I can’t believe these people are the leadership.

I’ve literally heard nothing about engine in my functions for months. Anyone have insight into it? Is it working? Or is it like agile, and we’ll just all forget it, and it’s associated magical thinking, ever happened?

Cringeworthy LinkedIn profiles for regional vp’s.

Staged store photos of everyone holding bogus awards or giving the camera the number “one” sign. (((Cringe)))

Describing jobs and management positions as “amazing opportunities “. Using words like “golden store”. “Winning team”. It makes my skin crawl. (Cringe)

It’s so misleading it’s actually very sad

Yet some poor soul will believe this and apply for one of these jobs

I feel like crying. I really wanted this option. Fu-k my life.

Sarah’s message was essentially: ‘when membership shifts, the organization must shift too.’

Barclays may be right about Wakely. It still doesn’t explain the scale of the restructuring. We all know layoffs have been happening every month, largely in the shadows.

Maybe the leaders can’t find their as--s with both hands. In any event, they’re almost certainly not being truthful.

Billionaire Michael Dell's "generous" donation to children's investment accounts is just another front in the deep state's war on self-reliance, and I have the conspiracy theories to prove it.
In a shocking turn of events that has absolutely nothing to do with the deep state’s insidious plot to indoctrinate our youth, billionaire Michael Dell has announced a $6.25 billion “donation” to fund so-called “Trump Accounts” for children. Coincidence? I think not. Let’s break this down, folks—because if you’re not questioning this, you’re already asleep at the wheel.

First off, “Trump Accounts”? Really? That’s what they’re calling them now? I’m sure the name is just a happy accident and not at all a calculated move to make conservatives warm up to what is clearly a socialist wealth redistribution scheme. $250 per kid? That’s barely enough to buy a single share of GameStop, and we all know the elites don’t want your kids learning about the free market. They’d rather they grow up dependent on government handouts—or in this case, billionaire handouts.

And let’s talk about the income cutoff: $150,000. That’s suspiciously specific. Why not $149,999? Because they needed a round number to hide the fact that this is really about tracking families. Mark my words, this is just another way for the globalists to catalog who’s “middle class” and who’s not. Next thing you know, they’ll be implanting microchips in these accounts—wait, actually, that’s probably already in the fine print.

But here’s the real kicker: 80% of Texas ZIP codes qualify. EIGHTY PERCENT. Folks, that’s not generosity—that’s an admission that the economy is rigged. If 80% of families are making under $150,000, then who’s hoarding all the money? Oh right, the same people “donating” it back to us like some kind of twisted charity tax write-off. Wake up, sheeple!

And of course, the urban elites in Austin, Dallas, and Houston are mostly excluded. Convenient, isn’t it? The very cities where the tech overlords and government puppets live get to opt out of their own socialist experiment. Meanwhile, the rest of Texas gets a measly $250 per kid—probably in digital currency so they can phase out cash and control your spending.

This isn’t philanthropy. This is conditioning. They’re training the next generation to rely on handouts instead of hard work. And by the time these kids grow up, they’ll be so used to government (or billionaire) intervention that they won’t even question it. Well, I’m questioning it. And you should too. Because if there’s one thing the elites hate, it’s people who can still think for themselves. Stay vigilant, patriots. The tofu-pushing deep state is always watching.

How many are actually giving the bad feedback in your pulse surveys? Are you giving the real, or just leaving the boxes open?

The Wage and Hour Division is responsible for enforcing some of the nation’s most comprehensive federal labor laws. This is protected and has nothing to do with your Servance package. Online filing is easy and can be anonymous as well. Would like to see how many people did it.

Thanks to this board, I no longer need a therapist — just my keyboard, complaint, and forty other disgruntlement employees shouting ‘SAME’ back. It’s good to know I’m not alone in this journey. Stay blessed:) Have a good weekend ya’ll

Former employee here. Just tried applying for a position that I’m overly qualified for and didn’t even get a call back. I’ve heard rumors of former employees being blacklisted, but does anyone have any proof?

Perfect timing for an employee survey

Does anyone else think it’s odd that there was a survey question about how long you intend to work with Verizon….

Almost like the survey isn’t anonymous.

Sense my sarcasm

Go fu-k yourself.

These meetings feel like nothing more than propaganda and further attempts to indoctrinate the feeble minded.

Anyone who is familiar with the dunces unable to write more than a sentence for themselves recognise the telltale signs. Stuff like repeated use of "It's not X, it's Y". Explains why he says so much, yet there's so little substance.

What a joke.

Stop the fear mongering on this site. We were assured that “ CDAO, CTO, and P&C Tech” would have massive layoffs: nothing. We were promised, bullied if even questioned the source of Fraud and AML having massive layoffs in April/May. Well April and May have passed.

The people who used to actually be in the know and leaked to this site have clearly been laid off. Since about last year zero predictions have been accurate.

Stop posting your theories. It only ki-ls the credibility of good sources. If you need to vent go to therapy.

Steve's comments were fine but Christa Ferrell publicly revealed herself in her own words as spiteful and the Adil Mirza acknowledged that he just takes other people's work and put his name on it. Is Sophia really that tone deaf that she thought that would be motivating or was she just too lazy to review the final video? Happy EAW folks, keep doing a great job for our spiteful, plagiaristic and lazy leaders.

So they tell us to use AI, your review next. Year will be dependent on your AI Adoption. Then when they figure out how expensive it is and they say oh you only get so many tokens now.

So what is it. My job depends on AI Adoption or my job depends on AI Tokens.

Please make it make sense.

Down with AI!!!!!!

Mike, board, SVP etc do a search on Google for example.....fiserv su-ks.
Take a look at how bad the opinions are of you, your performance and company. Look at all the complaints, absurd fees, lies, etc.. You are Terrible!
This should be VERY Sobering and you should All be Ashamed!

I’m hoping for some honest feedback. I recently applied for a role in the Retail IT department at Walgreens, but I walked away with a really bad feeling about the hiring director and the overall environment. I’m wondering if pursuing this opportunity might be a mistake.

Don't know how many, but it's happening today.

Completely off the layoff topic, sort of, but, does anyone know whe the exi results will be in?

Have you, or anyone you know, experienced age discrimination at RA? What were the circumstances? i.e. passed over for promotion, pressured to retire, no response to job applications....

The damage caused by the Stinky 8/1/25 email can never be undone.

For most employees, the message was loud and clear: your concerns don’t matter. Your feedback doesn’t matter. Your time, family, commute, and quality of life don’t matter.

Whether Stink intended that message or not, that’s exactly how it was received. Totally thoughtless, inconsiderate, unstable, emotionally charged, and power drunk.

The result of Stinks decisions and policies has been years of declining morale, disengagement, frustration, and a workforce that feels increasingly disconnected from the people making the decisions.

Now another survey is coming up.

Don’t forget how Stink responded the last time employees spoke honestly. The reaction said more than the survey results ever could. We now know he’s totally unstable and a loose cannon.

If you believe trust has been damaged, say it.

If you believe the culture has deteriorated, say it.

If you believe rigid policies are driving away good people and hurting engagement, say it.

This is one of the few chances employees have to be heard. Use it.

Did anyone else notice this? The session went on for about an hour. The recording is 40 minutes long.

Noticeably missing: some of Hamid's comments about corporate taxes and how to best handle the $40 billion windfall from spectrum sales, Hamid's comments about how the "rich guys" benefit from certain tax practices, and most notably, that kind of joke question about whether we'd see any part of that sale in our 401Ks (and Hamid's response that he'd have to see it in his 401K first).

Did anyone else notice this, or am I going crazy? Did they actively edit out the more tone-deaf and uncomfortable parts of that session?

Not sure how to do something? Fu-k you. Got a question? Fu-k you. Need some help to understand something? Fu-k you.

Spend 2 hours researching or start a ticket and wait 5 days for a response. What a waste of my time.

In the past, after the survey, managers would actually share the results with the team. So how about this year’s survey? Because so far, all I’ve heard is absolutely nothing. Please share if you have heard something about the survey.
