Good job by BB& his team!

My PL said the PLs will know on Friday who on their team were accepted into the VSP program. They said the emails will be coming out today! Side note: I have been praying for everyone to get the VSP benefit!

Santa Barbara County has successfully reduced its planned staff layoffs. This positive development comes after receiving an unexpected increase in state funding. The additional money will allow the county to reinstate 15 positions that were previously slated for elimination. These restored jobs were part of a larger effort to address the county's tight financial situation and balance its budget. Consequently, the total number of layoffs has decreased significantly.

GOOD NEWS: Xerox Wins Maryland DocuShare Contract to Keep State Document Systems Running ( Google this!)

My manager just notified me the pay raise this year. An awesome 15% hike.

The Auburn School District has successfully balanced its budget for the upcoming school year without any necessary cuts. Despite a slight projected decrease in student enrollment, the district anticipates an increase in both certificated and classified staff. Expenditures have risen, but revenues have also seen an increase, leading to a stable financial outlook. The district plans to purchase new school buses and is proposing a bond measure for a new middle school. This positive financial outcome contrasts with neighboring districts that are implementing significant staff reductions.

Congratulations to BB and his team for doing a great work. Wall Street seems to like what they are seeing. Enjoy the rise in tide in the shares.

Weekly jobless claims decreased last week. The weekly total dropped to 215,000. This figure was below analyst expectations. Job cuts remained minimal amid economic concerns. The national job market shows resilience.

On good authority, no layoffs in July except for sales

We are not mad at you. You stepped into this circus unknowingly.....best of luck

Best news this year - Mike is out. Maybe now we have someone who actually understands payments and really cares about people instead of just saying it.

Now let’s get Dhivya out of here and we may have a chance.

Many of us are very happy!

More good years ahead

With all this good news being said about Lumen, why are raises for non-union employees not being given?

Good luck everyone else

Just remember reading it here on this site: VTP, per contract, will be happening soon. This includes up to two years pay and continued benefits. Sweet news! Glad I'm not management.

Fewer than 10 of our team were cut (US team, not going to DOX myself). The remaining department are breathing a sigh of relief right now.

Congratulations to the team all over LinkedIn, we are so proud of each other. So exciting.

It's great news for all of us who work here to see the recovery.

Jobs report came out today and over 100K new jobs were created in April.

To all my Qualcommers who survived a dozen layoffs this past decade, this one’s for you 📈 to all of you who are still bitter, I’m wishing you nothing but the best 🙏

My manager just added something to my calendar two months out. So I’m good this round.

Just got a 5% raise, 4th one since covid. Don't let the doomers get ya down. If you adapt to the new way of doing things, Cisco is still a great place to work.

Good job guys! Keep it up! Great leaders lead to great results! You guys are ki-ling it!
