Thread regarding Thomson Reuters layoffs

An active message board

Every post here gets view counts in the thousands and multiple comments on every thread. Do you think leadership doesn’t lurk this board?

If you think leadership does pay this site a visit, do you think they just write off the comments as a small vocal group of disgruntled employees?

They could not care less about what the employees think. I guess they would prefer that everybody were happy, but it really doesn’t matter to them.

Agree the Titanic reference is accurate. Pretty ironic for a company which literally has "freedom from bias in the gathering and dissemination of information" as stated principle. Maybe that's only for the lower echelons.

The titanic reference is great.
These insane reorgs are just a severe amount of time wasted on rearranging the chairs on the titanic.

(The bonus in this inevitable tragedy, is that they haven’t even thought out where the chairs should go lol)

In line with the comments here about management monitoring the posts. I was looking at employee reviews on Glassdoor and wondered where the 5 star ratings came from. Then immediately remembered a new product release and all the 5 star ratings entered by developers on Google Play Store. So my belief is there are a some company schills entering the great reviews.

Yes they are here. Do they care. No. It does not impact their bottom line.

Most of their comp is tied to stock performance. And f*ck it’s at nearly an all time high.

The investors and analysts are the ones who could get them to care. Just imagine any of these posts being brought up on an earnings call.

Of course it be a lip service answer, but if it gets brought up again or was seconded then there would be an investigation.

Just look at the recent RTO video by Internet Brands (owners of lawyers.com). It recently made the news and yet it didn’t do anything.

If performance is bad, they will cut of everything before it impacts them directly.

We are expendable.

Outside of collective action not much is going to be done. A work stoppage would put some screws into them.

Helll getting customers to be vocal on our behalf is also a strong tactic. Why? Because it impacts their KPIs and more importantly their $$$$.

If you want them to listen you need leverage and frankly this message board does not provide any.

They’ve got their heads so far up their own as--s, it’s hard to imagine they’d have the vision to understand how truly despised they are. Or maybe the $ makes it worth it and the lack of soul makes it possible.
For every negative comment, there are hundreds of quiet onlookers nodding in agreement. This site is only the tip of the iceberg of disdain for their “leadership”. Speaking of icebergs- it feels like we’re all on a slow motion reliving of the Titanic- and leadership is hoarding all the lifeboats for themselves.
