CDK can no long hold a stable meeting to show its software. Teams are over worked and by the time anyone gets anywhere the CEO fired and lays off everyone. Management then has the ba--s to hold meetings and expect people to tell them that they are... — read more
Why do you allow that?
Lots of people complain about being overloaded. I am genuinely interested, why do you allow yourself to be put in that position? Of course they will overwhelm you with work when they see that you are putting your head in the sand. Why is it so hard... — read more
CDKs New Strategy.. It’s not us it’s YOU!
I’m getting tired of having my concern about lost talent bushed off onto my team! We are overloaded, burnt out, and to the point that we make mistakes due to a complete lack of direction and aimless layoffs. Every time this is mentions it’s... — read more

$1000 to stay...
Customer Care is offering cash bonuses if you stay through the end of the year. Things must be bad internally. They might be hoping people won't see the problem with this. Aug/Sept etc rolls around and suddenly people in Customer Care are getting... — read more
Leadership straight up told employees to F off last meeting.
Feedback is no longer welcome at this company and it’s being ran into the ground. I have just heard the “if you don’t like it leave” bullsh-t response. Please update your resume and review this cr-p company. Everyone who works here is worth more... — read more
Derek Skillings - " If you don't like how the company is being run then leave"
Wow. You know after the Q1 review meeting last week I just took the rest of the day off to work on my resume and good news! I already have an offer at $10,000 more than I am making now! So thanks Derek for that tone deaf presentation where you made... — read more
Maybe if we had a better product
layoffs wouldn't have to happen? Maybe if we worked on fixing that issue instead of laying off talent and letting them go to our competition we would be able to NOT have to have layoffs so often? You know, getting to the bottom of the actual issue... — read more
More layoffs
This week 7 close colleagues of mine were laid off, all of them are engineers. I can only imagine how many were affected company wide. I used to think this was a great company to work for, but it's evolved into a toxic mess. Some other colleagues... — read more
Please help spread the word to new Hires!

Any news on supposedly confirmed layoffs?
I remember reading something about confirmed layoffs happening in April (I think it was here but I can't find it right now) but I don't see any new info on it. Since we only have two weeks left this month, what are the chances that those rumors are... — read more
Support dropping like a rock contracts are next!
They are more begging people to work tickets and offering money to do so. Everyone on that part of the company is burned out or outsourced and don’t even have clue what to do. There are multitudes of complaints rolling on how resolution time is... — read more
"Earn extra cash by supporting our customers"
After laying off so many support agents and refusing to staff, CDK is now offering up the QSweep program to encourage employees to donate their time to CDK in hopes of prize money. Is this what we do now? Try and garner work for unpaid wages so... — read more
Age of laid-off employees
I’ve noticed a pattern in the last few layoffs: the age always skews higher by a significant margin. How come nobody is doing anything about this? Age discrimination is illegal and it shouldn’t be hard to prove. Is nobody interested in pursuing this... — read more
3 executive to leave in a week 4th in a month.
This CEO is toxic!
How likely is this to happen?
I would not be suprised at all if CDK sold Lightspeed to another company. I always figured this would be the case as soon as CDK went PE. It is very common practice in PE to layoff, outsource, and sell off parts of the company. I literally laughed... — read more

CDK sold its employees to a sweat shop!
GenPack is a modern day sweet shop! I personally know people that have work for them and companies like this. They out source cheep labor and and suck the knowledge from those with experience. If you accept the below average pay you are expected to... — read more
Most valuable asset my ar-e!
More like cattle!
Don’t a deal with the devil WALK OUT
I quit the moment I got the email. I refuse to support this CEO at any cost. If you accept this you’re an enabler. Do not let such a “leader” exist show him he is wrong. Take a hit others don’t!
For those that are downvoting legitimate concerns, WHY?
Do you really think that CDK cares about the employees that work there, or anything other than corporate money grabbing.
They aren't hiding it anymore
https://www.autonews.com/dealers/cdk-massive-employee-outsourcing-plan-works it is a paywall page, but it confirms everything we have been saying here.
Move to Heavy Equipment or Light speed
Make the move! We have not been affected by layoffs at all. There were none in November nor last week. Leadership has assured everyone we are not even a consideration by BM. The are continuing to hire and expand departments. Is the grass greener? No... — read more
How will this week play out?
How are we looking on layoffs?
BM is a thief and a liar
How anyone can hire someone with no regard for the wellbeing of his employees or his American workers is beyond me. CDK wasn't perfect but at least it had some sort of moral character before this man came back to ruin it once more. He is stuffing his... — read more
Hit them where it hurts, act slow on AutoNation assistance
Considering CDK is keeping employees because the important clients like AutoNation don't want to compromise the level of support they get, anybody staying should slow their help with AutoNation. Best case CDK loses AutoNation and whoever gets them... — read more
To accept the job offer at Genpact or not?
Who will accept that offer? I would have to be really desperate to do that. I certainly don't believe that many will accept it.
Lay-Offs are back on
A lot of people were once again laid off yesterday, we were told to keep our mouths shut till end of day today ( Thursday ) as that's when this round would end. We were asked to stay till March 31st to transition our projects to team India and were... — read more
Not sure
Some T1 getting email saying you are not affected but others getting email saying you are being affected. Not sure what group will fare better.

https://www.vice.com/en/article/dy7a7x/companies-cant-ask-you-to-shut-up-to-receive-severance-nlrb-rules
What happens if not enough people accept their offers?
Does that mean that layoffs are guaranteed? It seems like a lose/lose situation whichever way it goes.
Has anyone received a notification?
I still haven't received any notification that my job will be affected.
Genpact
Announcement came out this morning - CDK is outsourcing jobs to Genpact. Not clear who or what products yet. Who has gotten a Genpact offer? Are the offers fair?
Credit Check sold
Expect more layoffs with credit check sold.
