Firstly, this is common, and you’re not the only one affected. The reason they gave you is BS. They just want you out, and this is how they operate currently. Secondly, they will tell you to keep it to yourself. Don’t do it! Share it with your... — read more 

The whispers are getting louder executives have made their move. A brutal wave of layoffs is coming, and only the top performer in each role will make the cut. Their motive? Slashing costs, boosting profits, and proving to investors that their... — read more

That’s about all LSEG deserves from us at this point. In fact, I’ve decided it’s my New Year’s resolution. From now on, I’m going to make sure I do just the bare minimum. It won’t be easy - many of us have been conditioned to believe we owe this... — read more
