Thread regarding CenturyLink layoffs

Working here is stressful

I think we can all agree that working here in any position is stressful. Constantly layoffs and the decision to outright cancel the Christmas bonus doesn’t help morale. When we talk about it being slow right now, the company has artificially slowed us to a crawl due to budget slow down and of course it’s the season as well. We are in an economic boom right now and the company has decided to sit on their hands and play this game with their unionized work force rather then attacking the market. If this is what’s going on with Centurylink now can you imagine what’s going to take place when the economy slows down and the real crunch has to take place? Stay or go... find your happy place and accept fate.

Ahh the disposable society perspective, bet you pick up a new 18 year old women every couple years also when you get tired or wear out your current 23 year old or wife.

After all if they don't put out get out correct?

Several comments about losing the Christmas bonus. Christmas bonus is not a norm in many places, companies and countries.

Many of us are surprise to have Centurylink providing such bonus in the first place. Losing it is not something we are concerned about.

Many companies go through restructuring and merger and acquisitions.

What's important is how the company pays for severance in cases of redundancy. There's no job security in almost any company now.

Long services do not equate to high performer. It's always good to have long service employees but we also must make sure it's high performing and contributing. No matter what level... executives or exempt or union employees
