Me: worked at NRM > 20 yrs. You: who the fukc knows. So listen up, cuz I know stuff. Hammer: bad idea. Way overdue. It won't work. Think about it... you can't put a hammer in a disc drive. It's too big and won't fit. Hammer s are like a... —  read more 

Building's buyer backed out, leased back to STX for 2 more years?

New Troubles brewing....Time to rethink N.Ireland ?

Now that the Severance Package policy has disappeared from the internal web site any thoughts on what the new one will be? Capped at one month like IBM?

More and more great people are leaving. Whoever has any marketable skill is already gone. It never ceases to amaze me that they are completely indifferent to it, as if they actually want to get rid of the best ones. Totally insane. Can they do... —  read more 

That’s why we’re here. Spill it.

I’m starting to hate this company. Those at the top just don’t care about us, and it seems to me that there’s no interest at all to stop the sinking of this ship. Seagate has long since become a paradox company. For example, someone has made a good... —  read more 

I’m well paid here and there aren’t many places where I would be paid that much for the same job as here, but honestly, I would gladly give up part of the salary just to make the atmosphere a little better. It's become unbearable for me to work... —  read more 

I think those defending HAMR here, are probably the big reason why it’s been such a disaster for years and continues to be. (...) It will work at some point in the future, it will be horribly late though and prevented the company from doing many... —  read more 

Seagate has always been unstable. I worked there for 8 years and even as my training was ending, we had a layoff and just about every 6 months during my entire time there they had layoffs. Always be prepared to be walked out the door at any given... —  read more 

The head is leaving. Rumours of large scale cutdowns too.

Seagate Springtown and the underwhelming "Our Future Together" initiative. This bright idea came to the fore because of the behaviours of the Management and the HR department.Seagate Springtown spent a lot of money on this initiative, OFT has been in... —  read more 

Yeah, they have no idea what people do / need. They think software engineers are “typists”. This continues the trend that’s obvious. We are to be more like contractors and mercenaries for hire. That means you provide your own tools, office, and... —  read more 

What really bugs me as an employee is how cheap this company has become when it comes to work essentials. Just prior to the pandemic, they instituted some weird policy that we could no longer purchase 24" monitors for our office. I guess they feel... —  read more 

For the life of me I can't understand how there're still colleagues of mine who think they're safe from layoffs. Come on, rally? Nobody is safe here, unless you’re part of the executive leadership. Last year I saw coworkers with valuable experience... —  read more 

Here’s my thought: Seagate has been a lay-off machine at any ill wind. They can do what they want when offering severance. But if they make it too low, people will say “Stuff this, I’ll find a better place that values employees better.” In some... —  read more 

Someone mentioned something about diversity in one of the posts (Does the Business Excellence dept make STX better?). It's a joke. You realize there is a huge lack of diversity at that company. There are less that 4% Latino and 4% black employees and... —  read more 

Any comments on this LVP that replacing the VEEP :(

This is not a perfect job by far but it's something that's providing me with a steady pay and at least some benefits when so many around me are not that lucky. Those of you who keep complaining about the company should really think about that once in... —  read more 

I thought a poster was joking that seagate had this department but looked it up and appears real and has an svp running it. What does it do? Have they improved what you do?

Year over year drops can mean only one thing. LAYOFFS

HDD will have price pressure from above as SSD price decreases and pressure from below as Tape makes a comeback. What is our plan as the company gets squeezed?

Seagate is strangled by their incessant need to maintain the dividend. There cannot be any investing with this strategy. Exactly! When the company is focused on the wrong thing it's no wonder we are lagging behind. This affects everything -... —  read more
