3rd floor center valley up for lease as per morning call Friday. Who is left up there

I know this is a small segment for D&B, but this channel is where they breed bottom-level sales reps and it seems to be in trouble... Numbers indicate the channel is missing its targets by almost a million dollars a month, that can’t be good. I had... —  read more 

Well. I’m in a finance role and I found out my job is going to India in 2021. Early spring. Don’t ask me how I found out but it’s true. Some in audit are going to be gone too. Be ready soon for the hammer to be fall in the next two week or Jan... —  read more 

I might be wrong about this, but it feels like we are having micro-layoffs all the time. Two people here, four there... But it's happening constantly or at least I keep hearing about it constantly. I can't figure out what would be the goal of having... —  read more 

What happened yesterday? Which departments were hit? Is it done or can we expect more today?

You heard it here first. The hammer is falling in CV. My boss in finance just got hit this morning, my team as a meeting at 11am. Good luck everyone.

Heard there was a lay off today. Does anybody know how many?

Although their bonuses will probably still be good. Plus they all great raises during merit increase time, so I guess it just levels them back temporarily.

Anyone hear of anymore layoffs this week

That is all.

My manger was a on a call today with the discussion of the closure of CV. Word on the street business is slow with state of the world and will not pick up to 2qt 2021. Hold on to your hats.

With people working from home and prob not a ton of work. You know they will be laying off soon if not as soon as this is over.

So almost every company is working from home to try to stop the virus yet we all are still coming into the office. Who is running the shiz show here.

I heard from a SH contact that Malibu is next on the chopping block as a location. Something about the Austin office taking over as well as offshoring/outsourcing most of the work? That location’s expenses are making a big hole in the DNB... —  read more 

Bonuses and merit increases out of the same bucket?!?! How’s that supposed to work? The girl that’s due a promotion has to fight it out with team that’s due a raise for the past two years?!?! Absolutely ridiculous! I guess that’s why they are... —  read more 

Dun & Bradstreet files to go public again.

I think management is realizing how bad the data really is and will continue grasping at straws to fix it with these acquisitions.

So this company clearly went through significant changes- whereas the sales teams were told it would not impact them too much. (That was hard to believe at the time anyway).. Well after laying off tons of behind the scenes people in finance, etc... —  read more 

Wishing the best to all current and past employees. May the new year bring you health happiness and good fortune

Why does this management believe that laying off its best and most knowledgable employees will solve many problems created by years of their own lousy decisions? Has this ever actually worked? Shouldn't the simple fact that there have been no... —  read more 

It has been almost 2 years since I was let go from the firm. My financial advisor recommended to transfer the 401K as soon as the money becomes fully vested. He has a concern that if the company goes bankrupt or gets bankrupted by the investors I... —  read more 

Heard some more good people laid off today... they can probably do away with the parking lot at this point.... who’s left?

Happy Thanksgiving. Hopefully everyone will be okay for the rest of the year.

Just got word from a friend in the Tuscon office. They're shutting down this location at the end of the year and 200 people will be out of a job. Yikes.

I left a few months ago on my own accord and have only looked back to see how my friends are faring...OMG, the world outside D&B is so much richer and rewarding with so much less stress! I would suggest that if you have doubts, explore new... —  read more

Any increases in premiums or drops in the level of insurance coverage?

What were the main departments/jobs being made redundant ?

I really don’t understand why people stay. Wouldn’t you rather work in a positive environment. One without fear based leadership. Job market is hot. D+b does not pay well and benefits are average at best. Stop griping and do something for... —  read more 

I have a few friends that work for DnB in the CV office. They think they are safe. Finance departments. I’m thinking rose colored glasses. When is the lease up on the location.

I had a long career at D&B for over 30 years. Outlasted many company presidents/CEOs. Sara Matthews started the decline. She started the outsourcing to India. Go figure. Her MaxCV project costs millions and was sc-aped. Now company is private. SD is... —  read more
