Functions across company are implementing location strategy. Consolidating employees in core markets by 2027.
First wave: August 2024
Second wave: Q3 2025
Third wave: 2026
People in non-core markets: market-based exception, relocation (company paid), skills exception, position moving to core market (employees move at their own expense or be displaced), displacement/role elimination.
Likely true. They want one more chance for people to quit without severance before they really start laying off massive numbers in the summer. Don't fall for it. Go in, get your badge swipes and make those rich smug pukes in NYC pay you to leave.
If I can keep my remote work exemption, I can “live” wherever they want me to.
For remote workers in core markets... Announcement coming in April for return to office by June. You will receive a letter.
A remote medical accommodation does not exempt you from being required to live in a core or specialty market. Sorry!
In ops. Had multiple team members get displaced late last last year for not agreeing to move to hub/specialty hub.
What about those with legitimate medical exemptions already in place?
where are you seeing these waves?
THIS JUST IN : APPLES TASTE LIKE APPLE, ORANGES TASTE LIKE ORANGE.
Yes, I’m posting again. Judging by the downvotes from before many didn’t get that, in general, this is nothing new. The schedule documented, meh, don’t care if accurate or not but it doesn’t matter. It is happening, tomorrow, next Q, next Year all the same. Just prepare.
The amount of false information on this board is astounding. And frankly, lazy. So much information is published, but still many speculate and then most react to utter rubbish.
Take CSBB. They put their plan out. The dates for the FOUR waves don't align with this post. And for the most part, employees will have a choice in locations. NYC, Charlotte, Dallas, Chandler and Minneapolis. This board served a purpose at one time.
People need to stick to facts, not speculation or pointless doom and gloom. And when actual facts are given, please state your LOB for clarity, preferrably without acronyms.
No, they are implementing a mass layoff PR strategy. That's all the "location strategy" ever was or ever will be. Plenty of LOBs, including non-customer-facing ones, have employees where they do because that's where the customers are located.
Trust me, once the 'excuse of the year' has run it's course, the mass layoffs and outsourcing will just be rebranded with new window dressing. Rinse / repeat until there are very few domestic workers left.
Basically, it isn't your choice. All LOBs have someone or a team reviewing every single person and position. They'll review with senior management and it's then decided whether are not you are business critical and can stay where you are
Wonder how easy or hard it will be to get an exception.
I’m totally fine staying in my current role & giving up promo opportunity if that’s the price I pay to avoid having to move.
lol these dates are hilarious - who cares about the waves in 2025 or 2026. We could all be dead - live your life a quarter mile of a time. Take some pto and pipe your mgr down. Enjoy folks.
specialty locations not specialty jobs, although extremely niche in demand positions can usually get exceptions to everything with the right approvals.
What jobs or job titles are considered “specialty”?
False news wells can’t plan anything out that far in advance
What is a specialty market?
If you're in a specialty market, this doesn't apply. If you're in a non-core and non-specialty then yes, this is accurate.
Looks like kids are getting moved mid year then
If people need to move their kids for the next school year. August is pretty late. Pretty sure it will be earlier than August.
Business and Enterprise functions company wide.
NEWS FLASH : WATER IS WET , FIRE IS HOT
Roles in 'specialty' markets are also protected.
When is the last part supposed to happen? Which wave?
You didn’t list which business this is for…
