Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

Global survey is confidential but never anonymous, so they know who wrote what. The purpose of global survey is for the management to identify "trouble makers". If you write anything against your manager, expect retaliation.

Just give them all 1s and don’t comment if worried.

@r3
so sorry I offended your delicate sensibilities. sorry not sorry. Was that your answer and your feelings got hurt?

you must really be sad to feel the need to birddog answers that way.

@q7+1jvaqqmdh, it was already explained by @cn+1jvaqqmdh. You are just repeating what he said.

it is confidential, but not anonymous.

Confidential - identifying information is stripped off before any reporting is sent out.

Anonymous would mean that they could never trace back to the person who took the survey. it is not anonymous. if you make a threat or allegation in the comments, it will be taken up with the individual.

That all said, after many, many years as a manager reviewing results and reading comments - many people who write comments out themselves with what they write about and how they write it. Just plain d-mb.

Our manager was pushing for high survey participation rate and said managers knew who on their team had not completed it. Yes, they know.

Technology has gotten email from BE and down to our managers. That's like 5 emails in 2 days...all because they want to show 100% participation in even though it's supposed to be voluntary. The only thing they care about is the percent participation.

GES is a waste of time. Everything you say can and WILL be used against you.

The best thing you can do is not take it. Yes they have enough data points they can guess what people are seeing. Just don’t take it.

Your managers always know what you wrote, but they pretend that they don't know.

You have to understand that Global Survey is "Confidential", but "Not Anonymous".

"Anonymity" means they don't know who the participants are, while "Confidentiality" means they know who you are but remove identifying information from the public research report.

It means that your adversaries know who the participants are, and thery surely will retaliate you.

Just don’t take it. If you must take it answer no questions or low-ball all your ratings.

If you want to tweak your manager just don’t do it. They are pressured to get 100% participation. Don’t give it to them.

With all due respect, get the bozack if you think you should answer corporate employee surveys honestly. You immediate management often makes a game of who said what, so if you must submit a reply, give all maximum stars or scores, and never comment a mumbling word.

I can't be bothered to do it.

Just like I can't be bothered to log in 6 hours before my shift for a "global" call that's designed to be accessable to I&P, England, and maybe the East Coasters who are workaholics.

What type of questions are on the survey? Are they about management or teams or both? You can illuminate a lot about how management wishes to control you by analyzing the survey?

I have long believed the survey is only used to determine if management has reduced morale enough so that people quit on their own.

The nagging emails have been coming out bc people DGAF and aren’t doing the survey. It’s not like they’ll do anything about the results anyway.

They explain this to us every year. It is not confidential, HR can see who said what, especially if allegations of misconduct are made. It is anonymous because results do not include employee names. Neither your manager nor OC member will see your name. Don't take the survey if you don't want to.

thanks captain obvious

I didn't waste my time filling out. Absolutely nothing will change and they will continue to live in their C-Suite echo chamber.

Well, yeah, probably should use profanity in your comments or call Charlie vulgar names, but there's always a couple numbskulls.

Global survey never been anonymous

Scotland Yard at it again.
