It's pretty dark humor, but gotta love the idea of clients trained to call associates personal phones over time, then all let go... Genius move there 1 Broadway!
@5rlq+1j8Hg22R won't lie - I thought about it.
If your client calls, ask if they have a job for you!
good point. The BYOD was such a bad idea and now clients who may call former employees will find out the truth. Since we're no longer part of Fiserv, I suggest we start forwarding any client call to FIS
@2lhh+1j8Hg22R
I wonder if Fiserv is regretting the BYOD decision now. Phone numbers are owned by the person, not the company. Lots of client calls going to go to those folks.
@2cjz+1j8Hg22R Clients don't get any information beforehand. Afterwards they get told there has been a reorganization or reshuffling of responsibilities.
Nothing ever about layoff, not officially.
@2cjz+1j8Hg22R I see DLO Sales team led by NVS still around. Which parts got laid off?
@2lou+1j8Hg22R every half hour with each one throughout the day.
Do the touchbase meetings come in the morning or throughout the day?
@2jau+1j8Hg22R one of my laid off co-workers got a call directly from a client asking why today's scheduled meeting was not taking place.
This is how much heads up clients got.

Entire product teams have been disbanded and laid off (CS, PS, product, Dev..etc) while paying clients that rely on those teams are kept in the dark. How is FB planning to support these clients?
@rja+1j8Hg22R DLO Digital Lending and Origination is no more. The entirety of the LoanComplete product was shut down.
Yup my "touchbase" was a meeting with manager and HR to give me the good news. Best of luck to everyone worried one way or another
Any updates on this?
Hey I just got mine for this afternoon. I'm in APS out of Alpharetta.
Best of luck. Hang in there and know you will be happy this happened once you start somewhere new.
OP… What department?
(I am the OP) just a quick update - the ENTIRE department got invites to touchbase meetings. So yeah it's happening.
Contractors had zero rights at work and could be terminated at any time. That is true for most workers but there were no costs for contract emps. Just - thank you, go home. Or not renew the position. They could take as many days off as wanted just not get paid one dime. It would be a solution then for FB to fire everybody and replace with total work force of contract emps.
Very little chance for contractors to survive this storm and employees also it is a waiting game .. some words heard from senior leader deep cuts coming .. hurricane is going to hit us on the face this time .. honestly don’t care much of lay-off it’s waiting game that sucks..
@rja+1j8Hg22R I am a contractor so I should be out the door very quick.
Do you mind sharing your business unit?
May I ask what severance they offered ..
which BAU?
Awww so sorry. It sucks waiting around for your number to be called. Best of luck
So sorry. But honestly, I got out almost a year ago, and my life is so much less stressful
