Someone should investigate this workplace for immigration fraud, displacing American workers, Caste system, Contractor/Body shops fraud.

Please report with all evidences to the Department of Labor.

Someone please spill the beans!

Corporate managers are actively exploiting the immigration system, practicing race and caste discrimination, and displacing qualified U.S. citizens.

Your immediate action is required to stop them.If you witness visa fraud, discriminatory favoritism based on race or caste, or hidden Labor Condition Application (LCA) postings, you have a civic and legal duty to blow the whistle.

Federal agencies rely directly on worker reports to shut down these illegal operations, penalize corrupt management, and enforce fair hiring practices.

Do not remain silent while corporate entities bypass federal law at the expense of American workers.Take action immediately by preserving evidence and filing formal complaints through these critical federal channels:

Document LCA Violations: Take clear photographs of mandatory Labor Condition Application (LCA) postings as physical evidence. Federal law requires these to be conspicuously displayed on corporate notice boards, breakroom bulletin boards, or directly inside manager and contractor rooms.

USCIS Fraud Detection: Submit explicit details of visa manipulation directly via the USCIS Tip Form at uscis.govDepartment of Labor:

File a formal workforce exploitation complaint with the DOL Wage and Hour Division at dol.gov

Civil Rights Violations: Report the displacement of citizen employees, racial bias, or caste discrimination to the DHS Civil Rights Complaint Portal at dhs.gov

EEOC Enforcement: Trigger a formal federal investigation into national origin, race, or caste-based discrimination via the EEOC Public Portal at eeoc.gov

My friend in India just said that HR has paused the vehicle leasing option anticipating layoff in July. Eligible emp has to raise some ticket to get confirmation - if you r in list or not... Raise and find out
This is not applicable in US region

Rumors are that VZ employees will be rebadged to Deloitte, has anyone has confirmed news? Is it applicable to Global Employees or just Onsite (USA)?

Last week's layoffs carried over US employees itself or VZ India as well? Why all american workers and their positions get eliminated but not India employees? Is it because of cheap rates? Though their work is at sub-par in quality and no accountability what so ever?

PepsiCo is following suit with the US Administration and eliminating minorities and women from the organization! Intelligence and loyalty mean nothing to this company any longer. Looking at the org charts is like looking at a vanilla ice cream cone with a very light dusting of dark chocolate sprinkles.

Don't spend money on paying Indian contractors to astroturf here. Use that money instead to give American workers a raise. I am not kidding when I say every post that is clearly from management or a foreign worker is a clear sign to the American workers that you are scared, and I'm using it accordingly. Give us salespeople higher base pay and activity here will begin to calm down AND productivity will increase!

Story Pointing, Sprint Velocity, Comment Alignment, Backlog Grooming...these are all garbage activities to make talentless people think that they actually matter.

Imagine if a bank decided not to compete on being less bad than everyone else.

Imagine if it looked at the industry and said, “Just because everyone is doing it doesn’t mean we have to.”

What if it stood by the remote employees who had already proven they could succeed instead of treating them like a problem to solve?

What if it expanded opportunities instead of restricting them?

What if people weren’t waking up every morning wondering if this was the year their role disappeared, their office closed, or their job was outsourced?

What if leadership understood that fear isn’t a culture. It’s just survival.

Imagine a workplace where employees felt trusted instead of monitored. Secure instead of disposable. Valued instead of interchangeable.

People who feel safe don’t spend their energy worrying about what’s coming next. They spend it solving problems, helping customers, mentoring coworkers, and finding better ways to work.

Loyalty isn’t created by reminding employees that another company is treating its people even worse.
It’s created by giving people a reason to stay when they have other options.

A company willing to break from the herd instead of following every industry trend could become known for something far more valuable than quarterly cost savings.

It could become known as the place where people actually wanted to build a career.

I wonder how different the future of banking could look if one company decided that leading the industry meant doing better, not just doing less harm.

With the USA now out of the Soccer World Cup, will all that expensive advertising go to waste, especially with what Verizon is doing with International ?

Too much brain drain in US? So counter-intuitive to All In Dia approach.

I ain’t in America but the reorg over there has got me thinking about what happens in my region and country. Has anyone heard much? Is the USA the first to restructure and then other countries follow?

Happy Birthday America.

God bless the USA.

American jobs belong in America—not overseas. Stop rewarding companies that outsource our livelihoods. Close your USB accounts. Make your voice count.

What will happen in FY27?

The offshore contractors will start getting on boarded as Full time US Bank employees. That means layoffs starting August.

Got a direction to reduce remote roles today. Anyone else is getting this? Especially to prioritize 29 and 30 who are full remote and in the USA.

For your own sanity, let go of any, it's over, all clear, we, who remain standing, are safe now, etc., because it does you no good. To the best of your ability, prepare for the worst, make smart decisions with the assumption that this is coming for everyone. Instead of being consumed with fear and anxiety, redirect that energy and make a list. Start prioritizing what you need to do to be as ready as possible. Everyone's resources will be different, but think about maintenance items, looking hard at the family budget. Be clear eyed about where you are. If changes need to be made, make them. It's heartbreaking and gut wrenching, but you will serve yourselves and your families better by being ready than by wringing your hands. Please see your doctor/therapist to discuss your concerns if you are not sleeping or struggling with anxiety. And, really, who isn't? There is lots of help available to manage that. Do not struggle alone, no one deserves this. Lastly, if you are considering self harm, call 988 in the United States for immediate help. Your family needs you here and will be here, long after all of this is over.

Thanks to McKinsey for ruining an American gem

Does anyone know how many full time employees we have in the US? How many per group? VCG, CMO, VBG, etc

lol for me I think most of the onshore United States jobs will be made obsolete or outsourced by the end of 2028. What do you guys think?

This week it was confirmed that a new group of team members has transferred from India to the US.

2u seems to be targeting US workers for layoffs while sparing foreign workers. This is considered anti-american bias. You can file a charge online at eeoc.gov **search for how to file a charge of employment discrimination.

Pretty funny that LP announced that only 3rd world countries would be getting raises, some of the countries that were deemed worthy of raises are miles from US friends. I'll bet we haven't had raises in the US for like 10 out of 15 years, always some crisis, that results in a delay. How do you run a company like this? When workers complain about it, the answer is we saved jobs as a result of no raises and your lucky to have a job. Speaking on behalf of the people that are left, who cares! Let more people go. The funniest thing is that my big SVP who send us these strange demanding emails all the time threatens everyone that they won't get a raise next month when raises are planned if we miss achieving 20 different metrics he came up with at the start of the week.

What about EMEA/APAC/India??? Some say other regions follow - one reply says EMEA was already informed - another says Americas only. Which is it?

Citi tampa analytics and data science teams keeps promoting only H1B folks and stalls American workers and permanent residents. Hope the America first movement move to CITI Tampa as well.

Multiple gambling companies announced layoffs this week. Penn Entertainment cut over 75 employees from its interactive division. Gambling.com Group reduced its workforce by 25%, impacting around 150 people. LSports, an Israeli data provider, also laid off 39 employees. AI adoption, slowing growth, and new competition drive these cuts. The online gambling industry faces a broader recalibration.

Ford advertising during the Tigers game: “American values for American value.”

But as for jobs at Ford, American citizen engineers need not apply.

Spirit Airlines ceased all operations last weekend. This action eliminated over 15,000 jobs nationwide. Many airports, especially smaller ones, lost significant or all commercial service. Other airlines like Breeze and JetBlue are adding routes to fill service gaps. Experts predict reduced capacity will lead to higher airfares.

Saw this article saying TV and DA are being eliminated/restructured in China. Anyone knows what will happen to these divisions in US?

Cognizant is going to lay off up to 20% of the USA workforce in favor of moving roles to offshore. Going to happen in next 6-8 weeks. They will replace roles with entry level. Management pyramid is starting to look real skewed.

                -
             ——-

———————————

Cognizant plans to lay off 10-20% of their USA workforce in the next 6 - 8 weeks. They are forcing every business unit — Even profitable revenue generating ones — to cut their workforce to move over to India or bring in lower level talent. HR was blind-sided by this and has very little info so it’s clearly coming from Ravi or Surya. They are trying everything to get the stock back up, so why not blindside the workforce right after being named a great place to work. Yeah right.
