Exxodus, values (or lack there of) and opportunities

I chose to leave while I was ranked well and earning a strong salary before COVID and before the company’s negative challenges became more visible to others. It wasn’t about compensation or performance; it was about alignment. I realized that the work and priorities there no longer matched what I wanted for my life.

Today, I can honestly say that no amount of money, not even $2 million+ a year would persuade me to return as an employee.

We each get one life and one youth. I decided I didn’t want to spend my prime years in an environment that didn’t align with my values and aspirations. Working at ExxonMobil was a valuable experience. I learned a great deal, both positive and negative about corporate culture, and that clarity ultimately helped me make my decision. There are higher ambition and better career opportunities and experiences out there for many.


Wildlight Entertainment Cuts Staff Amid Highguard Struggles

Wildlight Entertainment laid off an unspecified number of staff. A core group of developers will remain to support the game Highguard. A former employee stated that most of the team was let go. CEO Dusty Welch previously wished Highguard had been received better. The free-to-play sho-ter had a mixed reception at its reveal.

To the user that posted "I work on a very small, but mighty, team that supports FE on all matters of consequence"

Your comment is below. I wanted to tell you something and make sure you didn't miss it because I really appreciate your insight and hard work.

I said, "You have very valuable insight. Thank you for helping the FE. How much longer does Walgreens have do you think and what types of things do you think will happen in the near future. How do things play out. What clues are you seeing. What is consistent with your prior experience?"

You posted, "Hate to say it, but it won’t function, along with many other teams. It’s far beyond any sort of recovery or miraculous business pivot of the decade fiction the spokespeople are trying to spin and pitch. I work on a very small, but mighty, team that supports FE on all matters of consequence and we still got hit, lost one. It was already severe triage “plug the dam” for years now, laughable really. I rode shotg-n on the very protracted death of another Chicagoland titan of industry and can tell you this is the very same death swirl/playbook all over again. Be warned, this will not be the protracted downfall that was. There’s no financial levers left to pull here to replenish the coffers, which will inevitably spook the Sycs,, ergo more ‘calibrations’ blah blah. It’ll be a sad broken less than skeleton crew up in here by mid/end of Q2 barely KTLA’ing. If you can find an out, by all mean, please take it."


Code RED, massive reorg

You cannot imagine how serious the memory crisis is the company is facing right now. The company has for many months act on it but was not taking much action thus lead to the CEO demise. Now the situation is so bad that the company is exploring reconfiguring/resourcing/reusing memories but the impact is near negligible. The problem cannot be solve with throwing more money at it as it is not a money problem. So bad is the situation that the production rate is so low that it's coming to a standstill. Externally the company is totally handicapped by the memory situation, internally they are tightening up so much that it's scrapping every single cents to can save to cushion the financial impact.


This Company Su-ks

First of all, the on boarding process was absolutely horrendous, and I've had 3 different positions within the company, all of which my training was absolutely non existent. Every single day at work you have absolutely no idea what your doing, and cant ask for help because no one else knows what they are doing. The constant lay offs and restructuring have ruined this company, we lost all our talent and only wonder when our day comes of getting the boot as well.


New Exxodus?

Is it me or is there an uptick in resignations from Exxon employees. Not new hires but 10-20 year experience. The company is in a strong financial position and there wasn’t any layoffs or egregious decisions (I.e. eliminating 401k match). Is that what other people are seeing too? Whats going on?


Tone-deaf CEO remarks

At the Salesforce company kickoff in las Vegas yesterday Mark Benioff joked about ice and bragged about how many people he was hiring but did not acknowledge the stress or the trauma that ice is inflicting on his own employees, let alone the capricious layoffs in professional services that affected people who typically bill hundreds of thousands of dollars per year.

He seemed tone deaf and completely insulated from what it's like for the people who work for him but still had the gall to mention ohana many times. The internal slack channels were on fire with people, many of whom had been laid off without cause.
The public video was edited to omit the remarks in a very awkward and amateurish way.

Salesforce used to be an exception but now it is just yet another billionaire-owned company that only cares about next quarters profit and loss.


Proud to work at OT - sales perspective

Firstly in sales you have to believe in what you sell, for me unquestionably Opentext are a leader in the information management space , and we should have full confidence in telling that story to our customers.

The old adage of no one got fired for going with IBM(poignant with new CEO), for me is the narrative that we should be using at OT(we are big enough to carry this)but we need help with messaging, let's get crisp and slick with this.

I know there has been change in marketing(needed) how did we get to the point of having a few fancy dress Teddy bears, dressed up involved in our core messaging(this is embarrassing) . We are talking about a small group of people who were paid millions of dollars per annum, and that is the best they could do, surely someone must have thought wtf is this!!

It is time to get serious, we all know change is a foot. I am in a non core part of the business and could be gone next quarter(this core /noncore needs boxed of ASAP, horrible for morale) but I wouldn't hold that against OT if I left the business, that is the world we live in. If iam here and I hope I am, let's get our ** together and start working together.
