Yes. The layoffs are continuing. I am not aware of the volume or locations.
Hiring Consult Partners?
I keep getting contacted by recruiters for "consult partner" roles. What exactly is that role? Sounds like it's both sales and delivery. Is it advisable to consider and join Kyndryl now?
More U.S. Actions
We hear there are more layoffs in progress. One-on-ones scheduled.
Morale

What is the reason of Kyndryl's sudden stock price surge? Within this month it went up to over 34$ from barely 22$

Kyndryl Cooking the Books
Looking at Kyndryl's lack of new business and the fact that they are losing existing business at an alarming rate, I would not be surprised if Kyndryl is doing a Enron style of creative accounting. Martin and Elly clearly show they lack the knowledge... — read more
How is the situation in Kyndryl Brno
Alot of my colleagues are resigning in Kyndryl Brno, are there as well mass layoff, may be I am lost a bit in times and did not notice much.

Happy someone else is as outraged by the blatant disregard for employees in the face of Kyndryls core values. Thanks @OpheliaLavande on Twitter
saving face without a mask
So today's the last day for many experienced professionals in S&R practice. All because of a lack of appreciation on TS's part. Good luck to those departing (not on their terms sadly).
A clone of Ginny's IBM
I had high hopes that the spinoff from IBM would include a business culture departure from Ginny's disastrous IBM strategy to save the company to prosperity. Her misguided approach produced $30B in annual revenue loss, including 27 out of 28 quarters... — read more

MASSIVE Layoffs in US
Hearing from former colleagues of massive layoffs in the US today with Consult Partners and CTAs being affected the most
Delivery organisation
Another useless org change, all teams will now be under Mary Miller’s delivery organisation. More layer between the account leadership, POD, delivery. Adults in Kyndryl need to focus on winning large deals instead of pencil pushing.
Kyndryl locations in Italy announced in Sep. up to 65% of employees getting furloughed

Any layoffs since Tuesday?
Do we know anything about the rest of the week? Or is it going to be anytime, anywhere for a foreseeable future? None of us really need this amount of additional stress. It would be better to have more information and know what to expect.
All Hands meeting at 9:30am ET Wednesday, 2 Oct 2024
invite sent at 7:30pm ET Tuesday, 1 Oct 2024 for meeting next morning I wonder what this meeting could be about? Any ideas?
Rolling layoffs flush morale down the toilet
It’s creepy, in a way. Coming to work every day, not knowing if that’s the day. Things happening around you, but nobody’s saying what’s going on. Media report possible hundreds already laid off or in the process. Thousands potentially in total. We... — read more

It's happening!!
Did Kyndryl just refinance debt to pay debt that was owed to IBM.
I do not understand. Why does IBM keep it's ties with Kyndryl. Big Blue is continuing to hold Kyndryls common stock. This on the surface looks unsightly. I find it quite odd that Knydryl's relationship with IBM questionable. Can anyone make light of... — read more

Martin's Transport
FYI, Martin Schroeter (according to the executive compensation documents) is the only executive in Kyndryl who can use company jets and cars for personal reasons. If he wants to go to the Bahamas for a weekend, he can do it and Kyndryl has to eat the... — read more
Deception x5

No big signings. Should Martin and Elly be fired?
No big signings in years. Still a lot of fat in senior management, and bean counters focusing on eliminating standby allowances. 1000s of alliances with nothing to show for. Should Martin and Elly be fired and replaced? I hear a few major clients... — read more

Some nice numbers in Q report
I still don’t think we will get ahead. Too much debt around the neck and not enough growth to cover for it. Your thoughts?
Just a reminder
If Kyndryl buys DXC, you are gonna be looking for a job 12 months later. Kyndryl is already at the breaking point financially. This company has no business taking on that amount of debt and risk. Let's also mention Apollo this company is a shark. It... — read more

Not so hot quarter.
I see we had another lack luster quarterly earnings release. I also see that Kyndryl borrowed 500 million bucks. to cover the 500 million debt due in November of 2024. Basically they are using debt to cover debt. Kyndryl is using senior notes. It's a... — read more

I have been with this company for almost a year. I find my work environment to be pleasant enough. There definitely, some acrimony in this company. That being said Meh i have seen and experienced worst.
