Outsourcing
CDK has outsourced most of CVR/AVRS engineering to India to cut cost. Moving support doesn’t make sense since they are customer facing. Maybe they are really looking to tank CVR/AVRS and sell it
El Paso
CVR had a good thing going when it was in El Paso. Wait times were reasonable and the issues got fixed. Here’s another great example of upper management just looking at numbers and being greedy. Good job 👍. CVR will tank in less than a year.
Management...
I worked there up until some months ago. Got out because of horrible management driving the support staff into the ground. Was told CVR/AVRS couldn't be outsourced to other countries because of laws or regulations with DMV information. Oddly though... — read more
What about innovation?
Want to understand? Look big. ADP had a good product, generating tons of cash. But it was getting old and locked into legacy issues. Nevertheless it generated cash. So they spun it off as a cash cow. CDK 'management' stepped in. One thing they knew... — read more

How is the bonus for everyone this year?
BK should just stop leading
His tenure at Intel was a complete disaster. Morale in 2016 was at its lowest point in decades. He lied to the BOD about new process technology delays (10nm) that caused Intel to slip behind AMD for the first time in over a decade. He sold every... — read more

We are getting close to the anniversary of last year’s big layoff. Should we be worried about a second one? I don’t know if layoffs are timed to happen before bonus payouts or before the new fiscal year or what. I want to put my mind at ease and... — read more

Glassdoor Reviews
I find it so interesting that as soon as a bad review goes up on Glassdoor, it is immediately followed by two or more 5 star reviews from India. What are they trying to hide?
To my fellow CDK'ers...do you know what your strategy is?
