Are there numbers of people that have left? Feels like a revolving door, especially around sales right now. Why is leadership not addressing this?

In my sales career, I have never seen Executives more desperate and weak. The sales pipeline has never been this bad, and the shortcomings of the Leadership Team are more evident than ever. How long can these id--ts without product knowledge keep... —  read more 

We had someone let go on May 31st (the day before the spinoff of Elite from TR). Presented to the team as “performance” related. But timing is very suspect so wanted to see if any other groups were affected.

I want out. I also want to be paid to leave because I've earned it after years of mistreatment by this company. There is no guarantee that I'll find my name on the next layoff list, but I would like to at least improve my chances, if at all possible... —  read more 

They expect unrealistically too much from us.

I didn't realize how bad the work environment was until I was no longer in it. I didn't realize how toxic things were until I read up on the traits of a bad workplace and matched up what was happening at work with the warning traits listed. There was... —  read more 

Unless something happens in the next few days, I guess the talk of a May round was not true. I don't know if I'm happy about it or disappointed. I'm currently half-scared of getting laid off but also half-hopeful that I will be cut and that I'll get... —  read more 

The atmosphere here has become very bad. In fact, I don't think it's ever been worse. On the other hand, I'm so overwhelmed with work that I hardly have time to dedicate myself to looking for a new job as much as I would like. You?

...but the expensive US/UK employees still need to be be fired.

AA just announced all hotel cubes for everyone. The germs. The disorder. Making things bad to worse. Any hope? What’s the big plan?

Am I the only one who is unable to find any good opportunities? I keep searching daily but I'm mostly coming up empty. When I do find something I like and go through the entire very lengthy process, I end up finding that their offer is ridiculously... —  read more

Well this townhall so far is a lot less exciting since they silenced people from feeling comfortable asking questions. leadership doesn’t want to face the hot seat.

...time for another round of layoffs?

IBM is going to pause hiring for jobs that can be done by AI. Could impact 7800 of their workforce. You bet your bottom dollar that TR is looking to do the same So how long before they do... —  read more 

I felt exactly like a lot of you that are still there. The hardest part was pulling the trigger on a new path. Financially, it was 35k+ more that what I was getting at TR. I could not believe that we were soo underpaid and valued. It’s never too... —  read more 

I really loved my job here and that's why I delayed leaving, thinking that some improvement must happen here eventually. However, for almost four years I have watched the company go a downward spiral and the expected improvement is not... —  read more 

Don't believe the false narrative that jobs don't exist. That's just not true. Spend 5 minutes on any recruiting site and you'll see there are a LOT of people hiring right now. It took me all of 2 weeks to find a new job with better pay, benefits... —  read more 

Here's a guide to ensure retention and renewal: Customers can’t decipher their invoices, so they don’t know what they’re canceling when they cancel. People are afraid of losing content or software and maybe a good price, so they just auto renew... —  read more 

Is it happening? When?

To anyone still at TR, especially those posting to and checking this forum regularly, please update your resume and start networking. The culture is toxic, the leaders don’t value you, and there is A LOT more money and job satisfaction elsewhere. We... —  read more 

Also it needs to deal with these problems in the right way, because now instead of really analyzing issues and trying to fix them, our leadership allows these problems to become bigger while they deal with some minor matters. Just my 2 cents.

For BUs that haven’t been going in twice a week - how does this change impact you? By June 1 all locations will have ICs come twice a week, and managers three times a week.

Management is now suffering for the cuts they made

whether AG comes back? TBH not witnessed how shes contribute other firing everyone. Also responding with a question when you ask her a valid question. I mean why are you asking me? and go find out and come back and tell me is not coaching.

I’ve seen the OKR around APi sales. Who is even building APIs? What is the purpose of having this?

The only thing more stressful than being overwhelmed is when your work becomes so slow that you literally have nothing to do. I don't want to lose my job, but I'm very worried. What do the rest of you do in a situation like this?

Got an email from Charlie today saying TR values accessibility and everyone in product has to do accessibility training so we build accessibility into our products. Meanwhile, they took away our budget for accessibility fixes. Cool.

I thought things were bad 10 years ago but its obvious things are failing miserably now. Institutional knowledge is out the door and reaking havoc on those who are left to support it. Problems range from Customer unable to access products to random... —  read more

thanks for the depressing pep talk today. your encouragement and intimidation tactics only ensure I'm making the right decision to leave. also no one cares. design tea is a time suck and operations is a pain in the a-s.

Bye bye Elite. Good luck to anyone working there. Any guesses what businesses TR will sell next?

You can't be all high and mighty when the truth is that Thomson saved your company. If there wasn't for us, there wouldn't have been Reuters. I thought this was common knowledge and we have moved on from it, but some posts I read here have... —  read more

Why TR is expanding activities in GDC India?
