“If T didn’t have $130B debt load, they might have done layoffs the right way. Offered people over 50 a package. This was mentioned a few postings ago. Unfortunately, T buried itself in bad decisions and huge debt. So much for doing the right thing!”

We all must suffer for the sins of Stankey.
He’s like the opposite of Jesus.

“But for those of us that did not agree to move to the new work location and are literally being severed, any idea when that will be completed?”

I’m hearing near Christmas 2024 - end of year for those who declined wave 3 or are still sticking around after wave 2.

That was too soon, I asked around and got that info, which is why I lied about moving and got myself til June 30th.

Good luck, hope it works out for you.

“Does “all this surplus’s activities… “ mean all Waves will be off payroll by year end? Asking for a friend 😆”

No, because over half the people who said they’d move aren’t actually moving.

Dead weight.

If you are suggesting that 20-25% of the employee base that has been laid off of late is dead weight, exactly what does that say about the Management that hired them or whom they worked for? Do you actually hear what you are saying? Think it over for a bit. Ya have to love the dim witted individuals who post on here.

T could have saved so much money, dysfunction and boosted morale (which is priceless) by offering anyone over 50, MR75 eligible, a package, perhaps a years salary to leave. Employees would have left, trained their replacements more than adequately and everyone would have been happy and not resentful. The vast majority of employees want to come to work and add value and in return they want their employer to value them. When a person does not feel valued as studies have shown their productivity unfortunately decreases and bad morale spreads like a virus.

"They sure get managers off the books quick."

It's been over 18 months since RTO was first announced. This hasn't been very quick.

My org has so many people volunteering to leave with a package, you literally have to wait your turn to retire.

5 just left and there’s plenty more that want out. All you have to do is let them go.

Given that it's October, that would, um... make sense? It'll resume in 2025, and the year after that, and the year after that, and....

The biggest cut should be the CEO. Time to move onto the next station in his life. This isn’t it.

The side effects can be a little rough, but T has desperately needed to go on Ozempic for a long time.

If you want to hold on to your job for another five years ask to be put on the Ticket to Ride Program. We have employees, consultants and leadership riding this train hard like a cowboy strapped on bull at a Texas rodeo.
