Dallas has Whitacre tower……. What will the new shrine to ourselves be named? I gotta know!!! 1st place gets their own desk for at least a week.

Happy New Year Apaches. You have got to love this place.

Any new rumors or anything that’s going on with RICOH? I am a long time employee and there’s never been such silence, slow product releases, and lack of senior management interaction.

We got an email about layoffs this morning and no one in MC is talking about this in slack chats!! What are y’all afraid of??? this is bullsh-t!! Let’s talk about what’s happening !!! Luckily I put my notice in yesterday after 5.5 years. Wayfair is not the same as it was prior to outsourcing.

Welp, looks like another ‘rules for thee, not for me.’

‘Select’ leaders will have assigned spaces for ‘business continuity’

It would be bad to give them a widdle inconvenience. Poor babies.

Just out of a meeting. All EU frontline L1 and L2 managers are being made redundant. Off shore cheap cr-p labour wins

What time are the letters supposed to come out?

Verizon DJIA DOGS: Dividends Over Growth Stock!!!

Verizon shares identified amongst the 2025 worst stock performer and the 2026 candidate for the top pick for the Dogs of the Dow investment strategy.

Noting for 2026 Verizon will not have any share price appreciation but plausibly a 6%+ quarterly corporate dividend if sustainable??

I’m at a loss. Don’t even know what to say.

Any good leadership remaining? Who are they????

Hello, 2026 please don’t be worse.

I talked to someone at UP on another platform and was told seniority with UP only determined your shift and off days. Management will line up individuals on any job they want to and seniority does not matter.

Contradicting the earlier tweet.

The figure of $115 per square foot refers to the asking rent for the new Verizon corporate headquarters office space in Manhattan's Penn 2 tower, a lease signed in July 2025.

Verizon signed a 19-year lease for more than 195,000 square feet across the 8th through 10th floors of the Penn 2 building, located near Penn Station.

The asking rent for this specific office space was reported to be $115 per square foot.

Approximately 1,000 corporate employees are expected to work in the new location starting in 2026, consolidating existing offices from other Manhattan locations.

They hate apple. They think apple emotes are dinks want to kick out apple and sell to other company. Apple sales person is ugly. Qorvo is the best. We are qorvo. Company is growing throw out apple or Newton as they call it.

one side- silent RIF's, other side, giving small retention bonus 1- 3k , which will vest in 18 months, what a company!

slowly fading away......

Sales at my location have been incredibly slow lately. I mean, we've had slowdowns before, but this is on a whole new level. Are others dealing with the same thing or is this an us problem?

It's unclear how many employees could be impacted. Before the merger with Cincinnati-based Fifth Third was officially approved, data from Downtown Dallas Inc. showed Comerica as one of 19 Fortune 1000 companies based in Dallas.

Not many mentions lately, is that a good sign?

I feel like there’s a whole market to capitalize on there if leadership could ever catch on.

From where I'm sitting, just relying on layoffs and nothing else to make the numbers look better is a plan to go out of business. The new CEO isn't solving problems, he's just accelerating the decline. Watching the company I once cared about fall apart like this isn't just frustrating, it's genuinely sad.

No wonder CK sends out a 7pm email on OUR RESPONSIBILITY and COMMITMENT..
LOLzzz
Don’t Trump know the defense companies work for stockholders not the nation ?

Captains Log 01092026. What a joke with this return to office mandate. There is zero consistency.

Workplace Excellence weeks have been removed from the calendar for 2026. That means you have to be in office 3 days a week even during holiday weeks.

Getting back $.70 on the dollar for everything Stankey touches is a win. ATT Campus in this day and age. What products does ATT pitch and for what reasons? You can't make up just how extreme the company's do as I say customers but not as I do.

There should have just been layoffs for underperformance. Hiring someone from McDonald’s, during the pandemic, and sending them back because they never break 30% kpis… just layoff people who don’t work. Why do I have to pay for it?!

I am laid off. technology lob

Have GC and PC been laid off yet?

TPG closes in on £1bn-plus deal for GP patient records system supplier
The buyout firm is close to buying Optum UK, which supplies the systems used by NHS doctors to manage patient records, from US giant UnitedHealth, Sky News learns.

Go on…be honest

I'm curious whether anyone still with the Company has heard whether EER offers were received by anyone in the mail after the recent 4K - 6K headcount/cost cutting announcement was made as part of the Q425 earnings call. The reason I ask is because it would be similar timing to what happened when the last 4K - 6K headcount / cost cutting announcement was made as part of the Q422 earnings call. The last time, EER offers were mailed out in early January, right after the holiday shutdown.

The TA leadership is pathetic. They cut recruiters and support but save all managers and are left with a group an individuals who can’t lead, make decisions or train a team. They are great at things that do not matter like monthly or holiday meeting that do little for morale it usually pi---s people off.

Let’s look at these managers, one saved manager, manages BRGs. The BRGs did just fine with no manager. Salary $130k

The conductor manager - runs conductor recruiting. You just laid off the whole conductor recruiting team, but kept her.

The mechanic and engineering manager, we don’t and haven’t hired one of those roles in months. Also tech and Corporate- also, not a single hire in months. In addition she’s always on FMLA.

The top TA managers were kept even though they haven’t made a solid decision or anything productive in years.

These layoffs weee driven by friendships instead of production and once again CSX has proven to be burden in Jacksonville instead of a community partner that cares about its place in the city.

Stay away from this place

Anyone know the extent of today's layoffs?

Do you think they track us going to the office or not? What do you guys think/do?

Optum purchased a large home health group plenty of positions posted.

Follow the money.

This begs the question of how budgets were managed in such a way to not only reduce bonuses and promotions but eventually cause mass layoffs.
