How many were laid off so far this year?

January is not even over and we know about several small rounds that took place already this year. And that's only the ones we know because people from those groups post here. Who knows how many happened that we don't even know about. This is going... — read more 

SVP talk of RTO "solidarity"

During his recent AMA (Ask Me Anything), SVB said everyone near hub and w/o medical accommodation is reqd. to come in min. of 3 days per week. That's a lie. And he's the one who authorized special WFH arrangements for tech support staff. I know of... — read more

Cash award

1 time cash bonus for people making under 75k. That’s some bs! The rest of us get sc--wed. I don’t make much more than that and will get nothing.

Hiring does not replenish firing

Yet Another Obligatory Slam of Agile at WF

It hadn't occurred to me until now that concerns regarding WF's butchering of Agile Methodologies was too narrowly focused on the methods alone. Agile has become way more than a method(s). Its original usefulness in software development has been... — read more
