Give them none.
Skeletor, Cuervo Swerve-O, and SD have no compunction about making our experience as employees worse. From cutting our 401k match to delusional AI boosterism, they've demonstrated they are incapable of leading.
Mock them for the hacks they are whenever you can.
Quick translation: No you won't get more people; yes you will get blamed for ELT decisions; we don't care about your burnout.
Thoughts on Amplify this week?
Here's what came to mind... after a painful week, I had to fly in and can't get home fast enough.
It's a cult around this place
Winning, winning, loosing?
Leadership has their heads in the sand
Nothing to address stress of layoffs
Nothing to address loss of market share
Nothing to address sinking services business
Seems to me that with so much a$$ kissing that I witnessed first hand, this week alone reinforced that I have ZERO confidence in this company.
What are your thoughts for those that were there? Is it just me and I can't just jump into the cult?
More people are starting to realize I wasn’t crazy for speaking up and exposing T-Mobile.

Performance reviews here are a joke. They will shamelessly give good workers a bad review.
What is the DX team? Being in sales I find this group as middleware. They have no knowledge and skill sets and pass all opportunities over to the groups that do the work. I was just on a call the other day and I almost lost the deal because of this group!!!!!!stop selling your bloated and expensive services that bring no value to our customers!
Anyone else know of groups where you just scratch your head and say why are we paying salaries for groups like this….
since when did USAA become so brutal. It's very traumatic and damaging mentally of someone escorted out with hundreds of eyes staring. Nobody wants to be shamed publicly.
In townhalls, people keep complaining about GPDS. Leadreship talks about GPDS replacement. But GPDS keep getting fatter and keeps adding more non-value work on engineers.
Poor businesses.
I was laid off in November so I haven’t been back to the office since. Just curious to know how the survivors are faring?
Ya'll ready to pull yourselves up by your bootstraps?
I reviewed some quarterly meetings with the ELT and one important question was asked to the CEO.
You have mentioned we have the people to win and emphasize we are a people-first culture.
So, why is cutting people first a yearly action plan for long-term growth and profitability?
After five years of people first cuts, might it be time to rethink this strategy. How about people-second?
Does anyone know if this person was made an example of?
... the boot steps on you.
Our company isn't doing great and we were hoping the next CEO would actually be able to help us.
Care to way in on what kind of boss Ayman will be?
Absolutely the worse company on this planet. They are all liars and it filters out like a plague. Thousands in positions they have no business in being in.
Getting anything done here is a nightmare. You need ten approvals for the simplest task. It's not structure, it's a cage that stops you from actually working. I spend more time fighting the system than doing my job.
Ex-schwabbie here wondering if employees are planning to group together and participate in the general strike tomorrow. As you should know Schwab is deep in bed with Trump and is so cosigning the atrocities happening at home and across the world. I'm just curious but not necessarily encouraging a strike... Just something to think about...
The execs should really take a look at all the posts on here. Half of us are talking about how much we hate it and are looking for other jobs. When your entire workforce is trying to escape, that's a pretty big sign you're doing something wrong.
In all my years here, the leadership has never been worse. They consistently make poor decisions that demoralize everyone. How do they keep their jobs while the company suffers?
This seems like a clear pattern and a major problem, doesn't it?
Why did we allow it to come to this? Why are so many of us so willing to take on work from our laid off teammates to the point where we're constantly overworked but still expected to pick up more - and then we do! How is this our new normal? Nothing will change until we all say enough and just start refusing extra work. Let them deal with the consequences of their actions for once.
Please remember this if you’re second-guessing yourself. You were not fired. You were removed because of lousy leadership that can only make itself look good by getting rid of as many people as possible to make the numbers look better. That’s all this is about.
And those of you laid off are going to be in way better spots and laughing at the decisions being made today by terrible people who are so shortsighted.
I'm curious what the most outrageous thing is to happen to you or that you experienced at 3M?
What did you guys think?
Stinkey thinks hes cute and funny, or when he tries to be. Our stocks have plateaud, people are leaving, ones staying will retire in 2 to 3 yrs or so, cant hire youngsters because nobody wanna work here.... on top of forced 5 days without a SEAT. Leadership is solving the wrong problem. To all of yall who played his townhall yesterday, and mute the sound, Kudos to ya!
Pretty clear Bill only cares about share price.
He gets a question about ICE and he just waffles and rambles about how we need to be calm.
He gets a question about culture and he barfs out a word salad about safety.
First year it is yet to be made available when the deadline is the 31st.
This company just can’t do anything right.
Kate & crew attached themselves so easily to Naas . . I wonder what they pivot to next since DW (Dave Ward) bolted on 1/23/26 ?

As pointed out on glassdoor a couple weeks ago {https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Employee-Review-PNC-Financial-Services-Group-E507-RVW102269233.htm} this whole RTO5 will be very expensive for us. Min $20/day parking. If you can find parking. Need to buy a vehicle? Do you have to hire a babysitter? Daycare? Cancel your evening plans because of traffic. None of this RTO5 makes life any easier for us or the public. And let's be real nobody wants to sit in an overcrowded office and listen to other people scream on teams calls all day. I could go on and on. This RTO5 may as well be called a pay cut. And like clockwork there is high certainty the C-level folks will see some sort of compensation boost before end of year. "Hey thanks for agreeing with my RTO policy and fu--ing over our loyal employees. Our board thought it would be nice to offer you a bucket of PNC shares."
speaking only from my own expereince, i find myself conflicted about how easy it feels to change roles at amazon once you are inside the inner circle.
on one hand, that fluidity creates opprotunity and can feel empowering, but it also leaves me wondering whether rigor and claritiy are getting lost at senior levels...
i rarely see an l8 write a single one pager that clearly articulats direction or strategy, and instead watch strategy turn into a collage of documents owned by l6s and l7s defending their own space.
i may be missing context or blind to constraints, but it makes me question what strong leadreship really looks like here and whether i fully understand the system i am part of...
An walmart director posted like this in LinkedIn. Charging our culture.
If you know anyone impacted by the recent Amazon layoffs, my team at Walmart in Bentonville is hiring software engineers.
I’m an ex-Amazonian (AWS) and made the move a few years ago. We’re working on large-scale problems—platforms, AI, cloud architecture, and modernization efforts.
Questions? Reach out to our recruiter DM me directly.
Ironically we called AT&T the death star back in the John Legere days, but working at T-Mobile nowadays feels like working on the death star, where any wrong move could mean the end of your job. Keep your head down, follow orders, and you might have a chance at keeping your job….maybe…
A really great place to work at…
Found this interesting Reddit thread for yesterday.
https://www.reddit.com/r/IBM/comments/1qot69r/workplace_politics/
Gave me much relief I am not the only one feeling and experiencing this at IBM. I attend the Albany Research center in New York and the location is entirely run on politics. Nepotism, cronyism and favoritism rule the site. It’s run by a small group that has been in charge since the beginning. Merit and hard work and accomplishments mean little here what matters most is if you are one the favorites. It seems the locations intended is for personal gain of small group and their acolytes and not for semiconductors.
This is not a video game. These are people’s livelihoods on the line (both who work here and who the employees serve). This was the most out of touch townhall I have ever seen. Good luck to everyone
The he-l is he talking about hitting level 11 and treating this like a game.
Beyond tone deaf.
