CEO and Vps like Shankar was begging customers not go for alternative products . Toxic people.. selfish leadership., Employees weren’t not taken well in this org. CEO should resign Nilesh Arora or fire Prisma BU leaders

I work at 228-the villages Florida and it’s a 💩 show. It’s atrocious

This is by far the worst of all the jobs I held. A total nightmare. Two years here were two too many.

Is for MW to be fired!

Everyone knows they are making up bogus performance reviews and attempting to fire people with little to no severance based on said bogus reviews. I no longer work there but still in close contact with many. I was told by legal counsel the made up bogus reviews themselves while beyond unethical, not technically illegal. I would be curious if anyone else has had success legally fighting them on that basis alone? Outside of my curiosity, any information may help others. I went after them based on protected class issues that are illegal - discrimination, retaliation, etc. That worked. They wrote me a check for a year within 2 months. They caved easily. No effective internal counsel whatsoever. They were all fired too so they farm out to junior staff at Reed Smith. The whole thing is disgusting but nothing we can do to change it other than keeping one another informed. Maybe will change someday when legal action is so frequent becomes untenable for them but don’t hold your breath for now. To all of my friends, former colleagues, and to those of you I don’t know who still work there, I sincerely wish you all the best.

I’m not convinced anyone new will do wonders for my team, but watching him leave after all the damage he caused was so, so satisfying.

Dell continues to keep employees who barely contribute, and I can't figure out why for the life of me. People coast through their jobs and still get the same pay and benefits as those of us working hard. Getting rid of actual low performers and keeping capable staff would improve both morale and productivity instantly.

Based on my experiences in Australia, bonuses are not merit based but essentially based on how well you get along with your boss. They can make all your hard work and outcomes achieved throughout the year meaningless. They dictate your year end review and also what salary increase and bonus to put forward for you.

I think they also play favourites as in a way they have a certain budget to work with for the team. Give more to brown nosers and less to associates they don’t like.

Lesson - at a company like this, it’s not about producing grade A product and being a grade A colleague. It’s about kissing A.

I'm done with DXC.

The toxic and emotionally abusive culture here starts at the very top and just trickles down. You basically have to unlearn everything you know about good business. It's like they have a playbook, and they're deliberately doing the exact opposite of every recognized best practice. It's demoralizing and makes doing good work impossible.

This company is terrible. Would not recommend!

Jay Snowden needs to go for these botched deals with Barstool, ESPN

To start with, John Gibbons, Patrick Davie

Although it’s encouraging to hear that leadership wants managers to nominate and recognize top performers, insecure managers often block these individuals from receiving praise. Advice to management: why not hire leaders who genuinely care about the well-being of the people they oversee instead of just their own interests?

Heard about the big rif coming...
The company is sinking, and they are doing whatever they can to save the investors.

Keep in mind.

Your manager does not care as long as its not them
The company does not care, you are a number.
You will find something else, and be much happier.
The company is NOT what it once was, greed and horrible management along with the BS surrounding the whole COVID and WFH was the icing on the cake.
Hans ruined Erickson, did the same to VZ
Stores are useless....and a total waste of money.

If you were smart, you took advantage of the education allowance and got a degree or did training on their dime to enhance your knowledge to take it somewhere else.

good luck, you'll be fine

PM's need to be fired. They are absolutely worthless! They serve no purpose and cant even do basics of their jobs. All the while ignoring everything.

For 11 years I had the kindest manager, a year ago that changed and they split up our team, because he was promoted. Rightfully so.. My Manager now is so micromanaging I am suffocating. In every email and slack message she asks you to reconfirm everything you supply her. Triple the work on each task. She has been with the O for 28 years, and started as an admin. Kudos to her for rising through the ranks. Not well liked or respected locally, by default they promoted her.. . To live a more healthier life I am looking for a new job. Will that solve all my problems, not really. However I will most likely be spending less time in the bathroom from the stress. Peace and love all.

My manager keeps giving my ideas to someone else, ignores my requests, and subtly pushes me aside. I could stew about it, but I decided a good old "fu-k it” is better for my health. After years of hard work, I’m finally done letting this toxic nonsense eat me alive.

Earlier this week, my post was removed from here.
Hours later, HR quietly pinned a “Team Player” award on my profile, one I never applied for and don’t want. What I actually asked for was a clear growth path. Instead, my manager (who still calls one-on-one meetings “bro chats”) has stonewalled every promotion conversation. This week he announced a new Director role… filled by an external hire in India. I’m exhausted. If real opportunity now requires a passport and a 12-hour time-zone jump, just say it. I’ll book the flight.

My boss spends her entire workday talking. All day, she is “stakeholdering” with people, then comes to us to get all the actual information. After that, she passes that half-baked information to superiors behind our backs, making it look like it’s all her work.

Many times, the leaders above don’t even know that we have spent countless hours solving problems or working on a solution. On top of that, she is too lazy to even put it together in slides — she expects us to do that so she can go behind our backs and present it to her VPs or what not ?

Do we need her ? I do not know but she will stay and people who are doing actual work will be fired.

Hearing about so many layoff, yet the people who put us in this situation are still around. Unless we remove those bad apples, how could someone change the company?

I have be with Macy’s over 20 years. My people leader towards me has an attitude towards me by saying I am not pulling my weight . Thats she has the same people doing everything. I working on merchandise. I also do the signing and markdowns on my floor. She wants her girls in my position. I work in ready to wear. They is no one in my store I would trust to say anything.

This shouldn’t be something to feel good about but it makes me happy.
My engineering manager from about 21 years ago made me work my a-s off with the promise is a promotion and then he told me I didn’t have what it takes. Anyway I left and got promoted a few times at the new company. This man was a total sc-m in every aspect of his dealings with employees.
Anyway, once a month I would transport food stuff for the food pantry and I saw this guy at the counter.
He got laid off in 2015 and never found another white job. He got divorced a few years ago and lost everything.
I should feel sorry for him but I don’t. This man never learned that his few years at a corporate job wouldn’t last forever.

stafff member dying of heart stroke in office due to exploitation by manager means.... a family ruined....high profits at any cost.....

Perhaps, I'm emotionally immature or just not used to toxic work culture.

Fido manager seem to dump last min work items on you and react in a way they own you.

And worse part, they let someone who fricking can't even understand anything remotely technical to present your hard work.

In what way is this healthy??? They make you do all the dirty work while someone less deserving steals all the credit with no appreciation for your slogging.

I've been here for a year and I've come to realize my manager can’t let anything go. He changes directions mid-project, gives out bad info, and sticks his nose into things he clearly doesn’t understand. Every decision turns into a meeting about making his own boss happy instead of getting the job done. It’s exhausting and makes it really hard to get any work completed efficiently. Is this a known Wells Fargo thing or did I just get very unlucky?

That explains a lot

…what a colossal failure he is as a leader?

I joined about a year ago, and I’ve been unhappy ever since. My immediate boss is rude and inconsiderate, the workload is barely manageable, and there’s no work-life balance to speak of. I’ve never felt this exhausted in any of my previous jobs, and those weren’t in retail. I only took this position because there wasn’t much choice at the time, but I honestly don’t know how long I can last.

Manager got promoted for the work I did. I took on more scope due to colleagues being CPM’ed. Manager already dismissing my work, likely I will get successful rating with pay increase not even covering inflation. How to expose manager ?

It happened today after thirteen years. I have just a few days left with my current login, any advice? This is the best scenario as there were many times where I didn't think I could stand working for the narcissistic, self absorbed man who micromanages the entire group as a director. He is widley disliked, thinks he is smarter than everyone else and loves to talk constantly.

I am not alone on the layoff stagecoach today. BOS is letting go of 50 today and apparently there is more.

Why are they so bad? They don’t know what they are doing, schedule too many useless calls, and don’t know how to actual lead or manage a team.

My manager straight up stole all my work and presented it as his own. I’m furious and don’t even know what to do. Should I confront him and risk backlash, or just swallow it and pretend nothing happened? If jobs were not so hard to come by, I'd rip him a new one and quit on the spot, but sadly, I don't have that option.

The worst my manager ever did was ignore a serious issue I flagged for weeks, then acted surprised when it blew up and blamed me. It was infuriating to watch someone dodge responsibility while making my life harder.

The HR managers target specific managers and employees due to personal reasons. They are not unbiased. It’s sick.
Remember HR is suppose to protect the company, but the employee-yet the HR managers are literally walking liabilities.
Wake up Hertz. Clean house of your RAC HR managers. More specifically your top 30. Walking lawsuits day in and day out.

Just putting it out there but the Cenovus board of directors should contemplate a trade of MEG for Lloyd thermal/Lloyd cold production assets. Cenovus would obviously have to pay a lot more to close this deal but it may be the only way to get rid of a manager that believes people with no Thermal experience can run the control rooms at thermal plants and also a LTCHO superintendent who just shortly found out the thermal plants run 24 hrs a day.......
Might be tough with the great acquisitions of Gear and Rife energy on second thought.
Never mind, buy Meg and just shut LTCHO down, that's probably the best.

#badmanager and the most dangerous.Manipulator boss, and always has a secret plan. He looks at people as a means to an end. The world is a giant pyramid and the apex is his. People he touches or runs over on the way to the top are casualties he writes off. If you work for a manipulator, watch your back. #Collinsisalwaysmissinginaction, he’s just never there. When he’s in the office#gossipnYou’ll feel miffed at the lack of justice – you slaving in your cubicle eight hours a day, five days a week for half his salary, while he’s out on the golf course... but remember#HeIStheBOSS..#byebyesoon
