Was put under a pretty stressful performance improvement plan (pip) that was both annoying for me and my supervisor. The culture here i think can speak for itself. There is none, that truly encourages merit based performance. They expect us to go... — read more
Layoffs and RTO?
Has anyone heard anything about layoffs or return to office? I think most people enjoy the 6 days a month so hoping it doesn’t increase.
Layoffs in Feb/March
Do SS&C do layoffs in Feb/March (just before bonus payout)?
Brace yourselves for layoffs in 2025
If you work for Blue Prism and Chorus you should prepare for January layoffs, especially in the UK. Protected discussions are their approach, get you to leave with as little fuss as possible rather than take your chance with statutory minimum... — read more
Not everything is bad
Despite being laid off, I got a brochure today from MetLife with SSNC branding on it offering me discounted pet insurance. So at least my pets will be okay.
Layoffs & Ageism
Were you laid off and older than 45? If so reply with your age. Thanks
SS&C total SH!T
They say they thrive on BEDI Equity Diversity far from it this company was and from what I see still is a sh!t show...

Christmas is Cancelled...
A load more people being paid off to leave the company in the UK, just weeks before Christmas. Departments are already struggling to meet SLA's and are incurring fines. Now the Essex Christmas party has been cancelled without any formal... — read more
I feel bad for all of us
Given the treatment of people who were laid off this week, it’s better for everyone still here to start looking for another job. Especially veterans getting a pathetic severance will do wonders for dedication and morale. It also tells us a lot about... — read more
Laid off yesterday
I've been with the firm for 27 years and was laid off yesterday. Such a slap in the face to only receive 2 wks severance pay. I wish all others who were laid off the best.
So sorry for everyone affected
I hope you all land on your feet soon. 2 weeks severance pay just tells you what kind of a company you were working for. As for the rest of us - now we know if we haven’t already.
RIF - right before the holidays
Was just let go today and only given 2 weeks severance pay. This sc-mbag company couldn't even wait until after the holidays. Now we are all left to try and find work in this brutal market and provide for our families going into the holiday season.
LAYOFFS
LAYOFFS TODAY AND YESTERDAY
November 2024 Layoff
Got let go today and found out after many years with the company that they are only giving a 2 week severance package.
Rif coming?
Can feel something is up
Getting paid less this year, thanks SS&C
Got a couple thousand as a raise this year, which is a slap in the face by itself since it doesn’t even match half the rate of inflation But now the bonuses were cut this sh-t raise doesn’t even cover how much they cut the bonuses. Meanwhile the... — read more
Work from home
I heard that the call team associates are not required to go back into the office. Which I understand and makes sense as their job requirements are to be on the phone for 8 hrs of the day. But wanted to know if this rumor or true.
September Layoffs
This happened in offshore(India) as well as Onsite(States side) especially in the new buzzing DRx area. Heard some 20+ names with not much rationale on performances of the individuals nor their contributions. Some vague criteria and still has a lot... — read more
Share Prices/Bonuses
I have read recently Rahul Kanware (COO) has cashed out and made a handsome amount, he sold shares worth over $36 million. Has anyone made a decent amount of money (>£500) from the shares that they own? The board of Directors approved an increase in... — read more
Taking company to court
Has anyone ever sued the company and won?
Town Hall Ugh
Is another layoff coming? The town hall being a bunch of talk about firing people to help the company doesn't make me feel good.
I feel nothing but hatred for SS&C health
I been trying to find another job but im still stuck at this shithole company
Hybrid Working Policy
The Hybrid Working Policy appears to harbor double standards and discrimination. It's baffling how some employees are granted full-time remote status while others are not. The ultimatum of compliance being tied to bonuses and salary raises seems... — read more
Birmingham office
Heard they closed the Birmingham office today. Su-ks for all the KC folks that have to go into the office 6 days a month. 🤣🤣🤣
GIDS and RS merging
How long until layoffs, do we all think?
How's Blue Prism Thing Going?
Let's see 1.5 (?) Billion paid? how's that going these days? Heard there were layoffs, etc. How's the demoralization factor of life at SSnC... fun no more.
6 days per month in the office
Good luck reserving those spots
1% raise
4% inflation rate in 2023 but somehow we should be glad for a 1% salary raise?
More Layoffs!
A load of more UK layoffs just before bonus and merit reviews! This time they are taking out people from the top. Senior directors who have been tapping people on the shoulder with an offer they can't refuse have now also been given their marching... — read more
Firings.. no severance Quincy
After outsourcing so much work there is less for us so now they can claim low productivity and fire you after only a verbal warning.. NO SEVERANCE.
Another UK Wide System Outage...
Yet again, the RSA authenticor has suffered a catastrophic failure, leaving most of the UK unable to work. It seems to be a monthly occurrence now. Where is the testing of these changes before they are rolled out? Where are the rollback and... — read more
Why No WARN Notices
Most companies are required by law to file a WARN notice when employees are being laid off and it's material in nature - funny how SS&C doesn't really seem to do this process... inquiring legal minds want to know...
Quality standards a thing of the past
I wish clients could see what is happening internally. If a frontline worker is doing poorly we just hide their work from being seen or reported to the clients. It’s wild how much stuff we slide under the rug and not tell anyone. Management is... — read more
Xmas Bonuses to Supervisors and above in some areas

More UK Staff Going 8/12
3 that I know of, rumour is around 50 in total. Seems that rather than a big bang, it's a weekly trickle of around 20 people each time Death by 1,000 cuts
Another RIF in UK on 30/11
Another raft of staff out the door in former DST UK office on 30th November. Not sure of numbers but I know two of those affected in IT and been told there's a reasonable chunk going
Everyday gets worse. Managers su-k.
No one cares about the morale of the team I’m on. Stretched thin, “get it done” attitude, and people constantly leaving. They can’t get anyone hired in at the rate people are leaving. A constant revolving door. Ugh I hate it. My team is getting so... — read more
The Work Number - Bad Data
Not sure if this is a one-off or more broad of an issue, but in going through the background check process for a new employer I discovered that whatever data was fed in ADP's The Work Number for title didn't match my actual title. This raised a red... — read more
