The situation is so bad at TR right now that morale is reaching a new low - something I didn't think was possible. We have top performers just going through the motions, waiting for the moment when they can leave. And you know things are bad when overachievers don't care anymore.
Sad times at TR.
You are more important than the company. They created this situation and deserve the consequences of it. My advice is to work your normal hours and then go home.
I can hardly keep up with my work these days. We're missing quite a few from our team due to "voluntary separations" and attrition.
I don't know how I will take vacation this year. My manager has already asked me to work during a time when I normally book days off.
I can't imagine that this situation is going to improve.
They are getting what they want I guess.
I frankly did not read the article as I could care less

Well the company no longer allocates resources to the business so why should any of the remaining employees invest any more time or energy? Especially since the lack of resources was the result of intentional layoffs and outsourcing. They made their beds now they can lie in it. I do the bare minimum and not a thing more. You will never find me working at 6 pm on a Friday for this place. Not after what they've done. Nope.
At the end of another draining week, I have to agree. It's past 6 on a Friday and I still have SO much work to do...picking up the slack for those laid-off and filling in for people on vacation. I feel myself getting more and more depressed every week. The "new organization" is more confusing than ever. I have no idea who to go to when issues come up. My manager is overwhelmed and wants me to go to my old manager who says he's no longer a manager.
Whiniest bunch of basstids ever on this site and at TR. Good lord you guys cry a lot
I was laid off in October of 2018. It was the best thing to happen to me. I was burned out and wanted to leave, but obviously never had the time to look. If you have any interest in leaving- ‘just do it!’ There are jobs out there, the pay is so much better AND a work/life balance is a real thing! Nothing is changing at TR, so make the change on your side!
It is the worst feeling to be in limbo...wast of my time. So I am going to
get off my butt and look for another job. Because they will never change.
its because theyre blocking internal transitions. so you get the feeling people are being held in place before the next big cut comes.
Wahh wahh
Boo hoo hoo hoo
Wahh wahh
Boo hoo hoo hoo
Poker face poker face
What is the company waiting for to happen? I just don’t understand
This. I'm a top performer and I used to care very much. But the company doesnt invest in the basic products that we need to get our jobs done and they keep expecting us to do more with less and I'm done. If they don't care, why should I? I can't wait to get out.
Once you have an organisation that starts speaking about "business verticals" that's a sign they've lost the plot.
Well they keep coming up with new projects and slogans that nobody really needs. Future this, future that. Get real!
Which location are you at? Which operation?
