TMs be sure to absolutely just blast your SM on the Peakon Survey. I know some of them are decent but it's about a lot more than that. You want to make CMs and VPs squirm. Put in the comments, be harsh and do not go easy. Answer everything with zeros and be as spiteful as you can. Understand the surveys are not about making changes, it's about how effective the propaganda is and it lets them judge how far they can pressure you before things explode. Do not assume good intentions, under no circumstances. That place is an evil toxic he-l hole!

The VP of Group Ops and the Medical Director made their rounds this morning. Eight primary care sites in Orange County, California were notified today, midweek, mid-morning that they will be closing effective December 5, 2025. They will be consolidating the clinics, shifting providers/staff into the few remaining sites.

Apparently, they were told no one would be let go and only reassigned to the other sites. Unsurprisingly, this was a lie. Positions were eliminated. Support staff were told they'd "try" to find other positions for them to fill, knowing full well we've been in a hiring freeze for the past year. The remaining staff in the OC are completely disgusted by leadership. Morale has never been worse. Their twisted idea of patient care means that thousands of patients are being told their doctor’s offices are closing in two weeks.

They allegedly hire the most experienced, most educated people to fill leadership roles, who get paid handsomely for their positions... and the best idea they could come up with is to RIF a bunch of staff right before the holidays, on a Thursday morning, expecting them to provide excellent patient care the next day and every day after until they're let go? Let's squeeze them more and more and see if their eyes pop out....

They RIFed 70 people in corporate a couple of weeks ago. Any word of any more? New VP said he couldn’t promise there wouldn’t be another one.

VP's, director's and managers do not lead, they spread their toxic behavior and all they care about is employees that follow their lead and cut costs. While knowing HR and lawyers will cover it up. This ends up costing more in the end. Hold these people accountable for their actions, inactions, tactics and improve the moral of the entire team. Start investigating HR and move on through the VP's, directors and managers. Time for the trustees to make moves to remove these toxic leaders and show employees they are respected and cared for. Talent, experience and leaders are being lost. The system failed all employees.

Received and invite for tomorrow then it disappeared. Came from the VP coms person. Am I dead or am I safe?

A soon to be former Senior VP at VZ

Skyworks has created a new severance plan for top executives.
It was approved on November 11, 2025 and filed on November 14, 2025.

This plan only covers Vice Presidents and Senior Vice Presidents who report directly to the CEO.
Directors, managers, engineers, and all non-executive employees are not included.

If a VP or SVP is laid off in normal times, they receive:
• One year of base salary
• One year of company-paid medical insurance
• A partial bonus they have already earned
• Some RSUs that would have vested within the next 12 months

If a VP or SVP is laid off after a merger or company sale, they receive:
• One and a half times their base salary
• One and a half times their target bonus
• Eighteen months of company-paid medical insurance
• Full vesting of all RSUs
• Extra time to exercise stock options

To receive these benefits, they must sign a legal release and follow non-compete rules.

This plan gives very strong protection to VP and SVP executives.
Regular employees do not receive these benefits.

Be careful out there folks they’re tracking everyone’s KPI for RTO tracker and that data will be used as an input for the upcoming layoffs by VPs and HR

If any VP is on this thread please just tell us how you decided who to layoff. It’s happening at this point. At least you’ll save us having a speculate for the next week. I know you’re supposed to be tight lip, but please please please. Just tell us.

For the SVPs and VPs that were notified, what happens to their roles? Do they just get replaced with someone new? Do their teams get moved under other SVPs or VPs?

If you were in a Roundtable discussion with a VP does that help your chances? LOL

Say you worked under an incredibly ignorant and overly confident VP who wrecked your department and in an attempt to help fix things, you find yourself a target and eventually resign after receiving unethical orders.

My questions are
A. Is there a flagging system for ex employees and if so
B. How can one find out?
C. Can it be challenged?

Feel like there may be hope returning to the Swoosh.

So is there a way for promotion if your manager has not nominated you? Considering your manager is only at VP level and is like your HR manager only. Can someone from the top or anyone else push your promotion if not direct manager?

Is it safe to assume the lists have been distributed and that the VPs are reviewing them?

It is almost certain a new wave of layoffs coming. Put all you got here on this thread. HR, EVPs, SVPs, VPs busy…

Had long talk with my VP. Confirmed large cuts and outsourcing 2026. Budgets close to final 2026 but churn still and earnings. I am probably safe he emphasized LBT wants radical change but feels most old timers are lost entrenched and beyond change ability. Losers. Bringing in new talent at top level and at every single level. Expect focused effort at removing all managers directors VPs which are not top 25% and not Dee technical Same with Gr9 and Gr10 Eng who haven’t implemented or wrote specs in years. get rid of PowerPoint professionals.
Going to be a wild ride. 2025 looks like minor change to what is ahead.

Managers? Directors? Sr. Directors? VPs?

As title says.. I will vote for C. Paul and Vivek (whatever the last name is). They both need to be packed and shipped out asap. They are robbing Verizon. CX su-ks at all levels.

This is from 2007-2008 period when Calgary’s job market was hot. Lots of young engineers were quitting Imperial Oil. Imperial was desperate to retain its people. Salary bumps across the board were in double digits (and not the lower double digits).

I remember attending Engineering VP Eddy Lui’s town hall meeting for the engineers and geoscientists. Eddy was explaining how Imperial Oil had a d-mbbell shaped demography curve - lots of people in their very early careers, lots of people at the end of there career, and almost no-one in the mid-career in the company. The reason for this demography was Imperial’s decision to lay off and not hire anyone in the early and mid 90s. Eddy said, “Never again Imperial will make such a mistake!”. In his words, Imperial will hire engineers at a steady pace irrespective of the company’s situation. Eddy and upper management were worried about the future of the company. When the seniors retire, they would leave a vacuum in the company.

Let’s come to the present now. Some of the folks who attended that session are at the top of the company now. I am telling you, you folks will have to repeat Eddy’s comment when no one will come to Imperial Oil when the market recovers. You will be saying, “Never again Imperial will make such a mistake!”.

I have seen lots of managers VP CDL were laid off this week

Word on the street is that new CAO Scot Rogers summoned ALL VP+ roles from around the world to Possible LA this week. Everyone VP and above. Seriously? Why? Most of those people have zero to do with sales or customers. That's a TON of expense for a company that is underperforming at epic levels and laying off really good people every few months. Has anyone at the top even looked at the stock price recently? TD is being SO poorly managed. Why hasn't the Board fired Steve McMillan yet? He's clearly incapable of steering the ship around the giant iceberg directly in front of him.

Now, that's some serious cheerleading. Cannot wait to change my attitude and execute on this.

A lot of medtronic sites doing cost saving but VP level still can have business trip with just to have meeting on site, why can’t do online meeting which can have cost saving

As the end of the year draws close, VP of Indian origin are planning company funded end of year business trips to be with their friends and extended family trips to India. They don’t have money to fund our bonuses but will do everything immoral to accomplish their ends. Shame on you Shankar under whose watch this company has run aground. It really needs to die so that none of you make any money off this.

Does anyone know the numbers? When will the useless VPs be let go? Totally directionless with no vision.

I'm thrilled to finally share the exciting news that I've been promoted to my dream role as the VP of Merchandising for Asia Pacific and Latin America at Nike!

It's been a busy few months setting up this amazing team for success, but I'm proud to be back home in APLA, leading with passion, commitment, and determination.

After 22 incredible years at Nike, this role is a dream come true. I'm so grateful to the amazing leaders who've supported me throughout my career and believed in me.

Recently offered a VP Product Manager role after six rounds of interviews. I am based out of the Dallas office, curious how roles at this level are? Everyone I interviewed with was great but I would love some perspective.

Shankar today announced more VPs coz that is the answer?

And they travel business class? AV VP Sales is a KN prodigy

Trash can people!

Finance town hall cancelled. Hard to be optimistic. Should we expect anymore RIFS in finance? Especially with new VP finance transformation.

Decade and a half at xrx and someone in a private conversation confirmed (at least in their role within the service delivery organization) names are already on lists and submitted to VPs within said organizations.

CFO also mentioned "difficult decisions" being made... my guess is another 15%.

VP sends email to team stating working at Dell is a privilege. Work like your a$$ is on fire. He just laid off a team

@OP+1k3kkzfyg

Hard to keep the workers employed when VPs who get paid 400k / year plus bonuses need to be prioritized…..over the workers who prepare their presentation materials. When directors marry surgeons, might have easier time keeping salaries up and prioritizing funding.

Oh goodie... We have a new Vice President.

F5 has hired yet another Vice President - this one is Vice President of Talent Acquisition....

It would seem to me that their first task would be is to rehire all those RIFd in the last several years. Yeah - I know that won't happen.

An acquaintance reached out about a job posting she saw at Medtronic. She asked me what I thought about this company. I made sure to tell her how my group just had several people laid off for no cause in May to help fund our VP's promotion to sr VP. This sr VP also chose to show us all photos from her daughter's multi-week European vacation right after she fired our colleagues and then dumped their work on the rest of us who are left behind. I don't think that acquaintance will be applying to work here after I told her what this company is really like as an employee. Guess actions have consequences. Keep destroying your reputation Medtronic.

What's going on with MPS?
I assume some of the teams they moved to them is for the their new VP to do the RIF work that EOE wasn't capable of.
