Was downsized a few weeks ago, found out several co workers were also downsized last week. New postings are mostly going to India. Kanaan and Sandeep got rid of most of the channel group, product mgt and sales and now is sending many positions over... — read more
No chatter
I've checked pages for other companies in our industry and most of them are quite active. How come there's no chatter on layoffs here? I know for a fact it's not because we don't have layoffs. That would be great if it were true, but it's not. Are... — read more
BlackBox work Very Slow
Work is trickling in and rumors flying that AT&T is taking over contracts. Moral is low and contractors are being laid off.
Updates?
Any updates? Nothing here? /agc-networks
Why no page for AGC Networks?
So, all chatter is on BB - but nothing on AGC? Hmmm?
I could see this layoff coming last year
Black Box has had extremely bad leadership for years and those previous CEOs got large buyouts for making things worse. At the same time severance pay was cut from 1 week per year, to 26 weeks max, then last year Joe Trammel cut to 13 weeks. But he... — read more
Black Box laying of 15% of their staff
According to HR they are laying off 15% of the staff by 4/1/19. This was no surprised to me when I was laid off. The manager kept telling us we were in the red and would insinuate to look for other jobs.
BBOX Laying off 200+ staff on or before 04/01/19
Black Box Network Services is continuing layoffs due to poor performance and lack of strategy. Although they’ve been acquired by AGC & delisted from NASDAQ they continue to lose $$. Sad that good people are impacted by week leadership.
Black Box November 2018 layoffs
On Monday, November 12th, Joel Trammell had an all employee call where he indicated ACG Networks is looking to purchase Black Box and for now all our jobs are secure. On Wednesday I was laid off.
Good times ahead finally!!!!
Congrats to those who stuck and made it this far. What a turnaround here. Great to see our new CEO taking the bull by the horns
BBOX
As a BBOX employee 1997 to 2007 BBOX had not idea how to move with new technology. The CEO who started Tennmark was great UNTIL BBOX bought out Tennmark. Then they dump the original owner /CEO and it was down hill from there
BBOX bankrupt in 12 months
Just a question of WHICH twelve months. Maybe not a bankruptcy but certainly a big sale of some chunk of BB is coming along with more layoffs. Their fabulous strategery got them into this mess in the first place and they aren't likely to pull off any... — read more
BBOX in big trouble
BBOX stock closed at $1.95 yesterday and was in the $1.80 range before it 'rallied'. They are sitting on the porcelain rim dangling their toes in the water. I put in 30+ and got the RIF – and because I was in a union got a decent payout. This company... — read more
Black-Box Will be Bankrupt within 12 months - that's my opinion
