NYC Band 8 technology and planning

AD and SD called, 6 years with VZ. Was recently moved to a new group and was working with senior engineers. Promoted very early on in my tenure, great performance reviews. Didn’t matter they basically said my functions can be done by people in India. Kind of liberating but disappointing at the same time. I just had my first child 6 months ago. I don’t blame current leadership although he was on the board. The stock price su-ked for a decade under Hans, but all we heard was glowing results.


Next Quarter

So, there's a lot going on here… Q3 and we're revving up for Q4… and we're preparing preparing for Q1. you know we have our eyes on the following Q2 and Q3 that comes after that and then that pivotal Q4 kind of ramping out to 2027… pivotal Q1, until 2027 Q2, followed by that Q3 and the Q4, kind of going into 2028 Q1. so there's a lot that we are kind of like laddering up there's a lot, kind of going over and we're gonna make sure that we kind of like we are not boiling the ocean or jumping shark next quarter. And talent retention.


The high road

If you make 2 or 3x the average household income in the USA, then you should be saving and index investing that extra 50 or 66 percent. If you don't, you are living a risky existence for stupid material things that mean nothing in the long run. Look at all of these posts here on the layoff forum. Realize that you are only 1 bad management decision away from earning a goose egg for a living. I retired at age 52. Because I earned several millions in about 20 years of working as a software developer at Fidelity Investments, by investing in index funds. I didn't want to retire but my stupid boss wanted to PIP me. And I had enough money. And I had enough of his BS. And I had an option to get out of the working world entirely. Because of simple decisions like driving a 20 year old car. And working on it myself. And investing in index funds. So simple. The future is never guaranteed. The present is your zone to make the most of, in the best interest of your future self. Layoff forum is just a wake up call to make your future financially secure.


The next culling

Just letting everyone know, the planning is underway. I've seen multiple things come through my email. Oct is going to su-k. I can't say more because I like my pay check and I'm sure it will be gone soon enough.


Layoff PI Planning

The consulting firm that came up with planning the layoffs really robbed Edward Jones. I'm in the wrong line of business if you can get paid for this outcome. This felt like Layoff PI Planning. We're all waiting for the final read out.


Worst part of the weekend....

Dreading the upcoming nonsense of the week ahead. More rush, rush, rush....more being overworked due to the slacking of others....more nannying and nagging by PMs who are more important in their own heads than they really are....more last minute bs that becomes an emergency due to poor planning of other teams.....i could go on for hours
