(AI) First getting rid of most employees

They let everyone go, especially acquired like hMF, keeping sales teams but no one to patch or support the products. EMEA will now become India only (eventually), US is just Canada.

Justifying the cost being saved by getting unskilled people in India (replacing the existing) to submit canned responses, knowing customers won't be able to immediately migrate to alternative or seek damages on SLA.

Probably going to fail miserably with this all talk with his own talkshow CEO. Talking about AI, creating a snowy mascot to hop on stage but not actually giving his employees the tools.

With all the diversity promoted, where is your Indian AI mascot?

At least we all got some AI experience as we were filling in those lead to nowhere Career Week forms, another true example to this company being all for show, fake new procedures and hard on it's hard working employees for nothing.

"Better together" never made sense, not when you are forced to commute 2 hours to an empty office, only to conference with 3 other regions who need to do the same.

Good luck to the few left to train their replacements.

Cut Geo Tech Teams

What a waste, especially Emea. They don’t solve issues, just whine to global support to fix small things they think are causing the sky to fall. No big picture perspective and too much bloat in leadership. Zero value unless you consider getting your day bummed with their snooty, bi--hy attitude and low IQ threats to escalate their single minded woes to leadership enjoyable.

ALL GONE WITH THE WIND

Within the sales organization, many highly talented individuals have been let go — notably Account Executives and Industry Experts. A few years ago, in EMEA, I had the opportunity to review several account plans in sectors like Telco, Aerospace, and Automotive. I still remember exceptional strategic thinking that went into our plans for Vodafone or Airbus. Professionals who knew their clients deeply and instinctively were on command. The depth, creativity, and relevance of our strategies for complex industries were truly outstanding — second to none ! . And now, all those great people are gone. Brilliant, sharp and fast minds all fired ! Dead weights and slackers, all rewarded ! Deadly politics at play.

Not So Squiet

Perhaps the rumour mill is working overtime. Nicolas Not So Squiet visiting EMEA. Escorted by the lead singer of The Undertones. Maybe it should be the Undertakers! Production is moving out of what is left of a decimated footprint in the UK. Another Tireman hire who can only see cost-cutting as the best route to business growth. As for Sharkey, well, what do you expect? Has not got the slightest clue about manufacturing, a puppet on the outpost, anticipating retirement any day soon. I just hope the Layoff compensation is decent and people get the best chance of finding something new.

EMEA decline

As a member of the EMEA team, I am deeply concerned about the region's alarming decline. It's clear that our current leadership's self-interested approach is not only failing to address the issues, but also exacerbating them. We urgently need a new direction and a leader who will put the team's and the organization's interests above their own. The question on everyone's mind is: who among us will take a stand, challenge the existing power dynamics, and drive the necessary changes to get EMEA back on track? We can't afford to wait any longer - the future of our region is at stake, and it's up to us to take ownership of its turnaround.

Work Your Way - New GSC Guidelines

A 50 km radius (not commuting distance!) defines “near remote,” while 100 km defines “distant remote.”

Our colleagues within a 90 km radius may have to commute 130 km twice a day or spend 4–6 hours daily in the car, depending on highway access and traffic - just for “collaboration.” Even if they’re part of a global team with no local contacts, spending 80% of their time on international projects and calls. All in the name of “better collaboration”?

If this is the new rule, then I’ll stop being flexible in EMEA. No more calls with Asia at 8 AM or the US at 11 PM. I’ll come in for a 9–5 job instead. Asia can have the first hour, the US my last two hours. Oh, I’ll be so much more productive. Not.

Excuse me, but how does this help, aside from forcing people out? It’s a slap in the face to those already ignoring labor laws, working late for 3M, only to have another meeting nine hours later after barely seven hours of sleep. Canceling my evening plans with friends for important meetings? Yeah, sure.

I have no words for this. Or for how I feel right now.

What’s going on?
