Yes they are leaving with a bag of money and they are pushed. The PR is there to make it sound positive and their decision. As stated the trap door is open and people are starting to disappear again.
Looks like there are quite a few people leaving Keyloop at the moment ( coincidentally suggesting they are having a break and a career change) . Is the cheque book open again?
“Deflect what we can, fix what we must” is a great statement from our Head of Customer Enablement (support). Wonder if that is just an internal slogan or if we are communicating that to our customers as well, to make them feel even more valued.
Trap door? Explain…
Get ready the trap door is opening now.
Sales, PS and CE are the first and have already implemented this in a huge part of their org, continuing to implement in the rest of the org. Product have implemented it in parts of the org. already and are looking to implement it other parts as well. Remember the changes will be announced as opportunities and not as defeats.
Are they? Examples please
3 years, that’s how long it took for the KLT to realise that their functional organisation was a failure, so now they are beginning to move back to a country/regional organisation.
ATG Integration Update - Week 4
We are beginning to align on 4 key areas:
- People
- Bla bla bla
- Bla bla bla
- Setting up for growth
You know what this means.
Rumours are once again, and stronger than ever, that KL are going to sell off the less money making products, in order to achieve their “rule of 60”. Different workshops are currently being setup amongst the leadership to work on this. I envy those who would get an early freedom from the dictatorship - lucky ba----ds!
To add if the Dead Fish HR department announce a Mental Health Week or Wellness Sessions mark my words there will redundancies coming at end. Box ticked, time for more blood to be shed. As said Xmas always a favourite to spread the good will.
Welcome to our new colleagues at ATG! Expect redundancies before Christmas. Oh, and don't be surprised if you get layed off the week before Christmas, 'cause that's just the way these crazy, fun people like to roll.
As an ATG (now Keyloop) employee listening to our new leaders Yesterday, I suddenly understand all the talks going on in here…. I hope they make me redundant, and pay out these famous checks.
AM Awards tonight…. Always a great event for every single table slagging off the keyloop staff as no idea anymore. Everyone asking how to get out as quickly as possible and as usual Keyloop nominated for an award but always celebrate losing. Come talks to us, majority would rather choke. Always fun let’s see 😂
Pinewood are expanding their own training and implementation team, Keyloop have binned theirs -I wonder which has more faith in their product going forwards? Now separated from Pendragon, Pinewood are well placed to replace Keyloop Drive that promised so much but delivered so little.
Have they still got their Keyloop Spotify playlist? I have some suggestions for the playlist: Road to nowhere, We gotta get out of this place, Money for nothing, Lunatics have taken over the asylum and Can't get enough (Bad Company). Much love.
Can anyone else help?
Yay! We're sm--k bang on target to hit our goal of losing €24M in revenue this year. Those responsible must be very proud.
"We're evaluating the costs and skill levels in Vietnam". Management speak for "if it's cheaper than India we're moving there".
Firesale is approaching. FP and ELT prepping up for dividing/selling parts of the company to the highest bidder. This to minimize the loss. This is also why the latest company was bought. To supplement the sales package. Why would KL else buy a company that had products redundant to what we already have? Also the latests org changes in PS, CE and Sales indicates this.
I’m wondering if your pseudonym is getting your posts removed? Not sure just a guess, as it seems to be all of yours.
Deja vu! 'We believe Keyloop is the perfect fit for us as we continue to provide cutting-edge, consumer- first software for retailers.' Yet another CEO su-kered!
Perhaps that will not notice when their colleagues start to disappear?
Another posting removed?
A month or so ago one Senior Product Leader was moved. Today another joined moving out of Product. Both highly praised by the CEO and even awarded for their contributions. Truth is, both was responsible for products and projects that failed big time, but that cannot come out in public. Instead of our ELT and CEO admitting their mistakes, they try to hide them by moving the responsible leaders into less important roles in other parts of the org. Wonder who will be moved next, the platform responsible? I remember that 3 years ago it was anounced that within 3 years the platform would have taken over, leaving left only little use of eg. the DMS. How well have that strategy been executed?
Here in President Club in Barbados. Nice free holiday for selling stuff no one can install or support. Good luck su-kers 💰💰💰💰💰
Good. Well hopefully they are out selling, which is what I would expect
Another jolly?
A lot of colleagues from Sales seems to be OOO this week……
HRInsider you forgot: Removal of negative reviews on Glassdoor initiated. Just in 2024 I've noticed 2 one star review missing after a few days
Firesale is approaching. New round of redundancies initiated, new round of hiring contractors initiated, adding more HR people initiated, new round of positive posts on social medias initiated.
No redundancies, my ar$$$$$$$eeeeeeeee
Re returning support, you have to ask where they have been for the last 2 1/2 years and what has just happened there. I'm pretty sure none of them had planned to return.
I hear a small group of people is waking up in Athens with some major headache…
Hearing rumours of support people returning who were let go in 2021. Why would you? Never heard of once bitten twice shy?
I’m looking for some honest feedback on how it is to be a Keyloop employee in the Nordics, as Glassdoor and other similar pages seems to be UK focused. This is to determine whether i should apply for one of the open positions.
Salary range: Low, Mid or Top?
Career progression oppotunities?
Colleague interaction/friendship?
Any perks?
The above comparred to other market leading it/tech companies.
Only customers' difficulties in abandoning keep the company alive.... experience first...
When was the last time Keyloop made an acquisition? Can't remember either? I can inform you that Keyloop is doing everything it can, 32 attempts were made last year. The problem isn't the money, there's plenty of it, and yet the money is the problem. Because Keyloop's way of making money is at the expense of customers and employees. Areas where modern and therefore responsible owners will not compromise, which is what FP and Keyloop's managers want. Recently, one of Keyloops big partners was reportedly sold to a company other than Keyloop, partly because of Keyloop's partner program where they literally milk the money without regard for partners and customers.
So don’t expect to see any further acquisitions untill after FP have sold Keyloop and Tom and the Gang is gone.
So many words... but now it's just a question of credibility, now lost... the market is communicating the sentence...
I hope this is not true. I only been working in PS for 15 years. Why should I find out in right way
Completely out of their depth. The result is carnage for three years. Destroyed a successful business unit like many others.
