If the economy turns around, do you anticipate any Thomson Reuters layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

Are people really being laid off without severance? This is the first time I've heard about this and now my anxiety and stress level are about twice as bad as they were. It's one thing to be laid off with severance. It's bad, but at least you have... — read more 

Got fired and was told by my manager doing the firing that part of their bonus is determined by the headcount reduction and cost of replacements.

Literally sobbing. After being told I was so valued by TR, I receive notice that I am being terminated. My position will be back filled via Change Pgm outsourcing. There will be no severance for my team. Worked my a-s off for this company over... — read more 

I just got an unexpected teams meeting invite labeled ‘Business Update’ with just my manager and my manager’s manager. I’m getting laid off right? That’s what this is?

Tis the season, and I've been tapped. I've been wary for years and am finally at peace. For someone who said to just resign: Unless you have a new job offer lined up for a steady revenue source, you would be losing out on the severance package... — read more 

For those who have been let go before has anybody gotten a larger severance then the standard 2 weeks from TR?

How is NM going to handle the Federal / OSHA vaccine mandate? January 4th is right around the corner. I don't think the new mandate will allow working from home as being in compliance. Anyone with a brain new this was coming when only 58% of the... — read more 

It'll send a message so you'd have achieved something rather than when being fired AND it'll mean fewer layoffs for the rest of us.

The federal court of appeal temporarily halted Bidens vaccine mandate. How will TR respond to this?

Many here boast that they only work the bare minimum. I keep wondering how I fail to work as little as possible because I have a lot of work to do every day that can't go unfinished?

It has never been more miserable working at TR. I’ve been here for a few years now, but this one was definitely the worst for me. I get depressed when I remember how it used to be and how it is now. From what is happening here now, I don't have much... — read more 

I retired just under two years ago and was in Ann Arbor with Tax & Accounting? I came through with Thomson's purchase of Creative Solutions back in the late 90's and stayed until 2020. Friends have kept me posted as far as the layoffs to... — read more

“Anonymous” employee survey being pushed - should employees take it? It’s called “OHI” survey and they say each person gets a unique identifier link but they insist the survey is completely anonymous. Is it possible that they could match the... — read more

You're not happy at TR, I get that. You basically have two choices. You can stay here and continue to be miserable every single day of your life or you can leave now that the job market is for the first time completely favoring workers and find a... — read more 

While celebrating mental health day I noticed that the post about Mexico was removed. I thought DW would be spending time preparing for the Product Blitz Days instead of playing censor.

Is there a way to volunteer to be included in the annual layoff group instead of waiting to get fired due to the vaccine mandate? All those years spent dodging the bullet maybe wasn't a blessing after all.

For those who were Rif’d in the past how long did it take you to find other employment? Were you able to remain within the industry or did you need to step outside to be gainfully employed? More importantly, did you find a position where you were... — read more 

A customer even posted here complaining about the products sucking. You should all realize, collectively, that you did a poor job. Unfortunately many kiss a-s managers and directors got to keep their cushy jobs. And this is not to say that... — read more 

That and these courses which I will never use is a huge waste of time and stressful. Honestly I am hoping I am in the next round of layoffs. I feel like I am back in school again with homework and project deadlines. The fork is stuck in me _ _ _ .. — read more 

Coming out tomorrow - so expect more attrition in the US with no backfills. Required vax by late November/efficacy December - per Federal policy. Maybe that will alleviate some of the layoffs coming soon.

Why does the company have to torment us with these constant check-in’s with managers, self evaluations, password changes, required seminars to take (most of which does not apply to to the vast amount of TR employees anyway ) and virtual town halls? ... — read more 

Is there any hope that this October will pass without layoffs? I am very worried because this would be the worst possible time for me personally to get laid off, and it frustrates me that I am powerless to do anything and not become the layoff... — read more 

Those who don’t expect it and try to keep the job seem to be laid off. On the other hand, I wish to be on the layoff list - and I am not. Though reluctantly, it looks like I’ll have to leave without severance pay even though I’ve been squeezed here... — read more 

Be advised. Update your resume and start putting out feelers. More financial goals are needing to be met to solidify selloffs.

Am I the only one who thought that BP should have put on a coat and tie for a Customer Town Hall? If we have an attorney in a coat and tie giving us "feedback," shouldn't one of our top executives try to not look so sloppy?

This post is for TR management. It is meant as genuine feedback and is not a wind up or a joke. I’ve been a regular user of TR products for many years. Over the last three or so I’ve noticed a decline in quality/standards in many of the products I... — read more 

I didn't think they would replace a colleague who left very quickly, but I didn't think it would last very long either. After three months, I thought he would never be replaced. Well in the end it was replaced but only after almost five... — read more 

If you are still left at TR, it means that you will do what you have to do to stay, but that by no means say that you are valued. As I look around at who is left, its typically the meek ones, ones that go with the flow, no dissenting opinions, happy... — read more

This model cant keep going on the way it is. Heard any rumors?

A former coworker who was laid off months ago is still looking for work. He did have a few good possibilities but it never went through the whole way. This has me worried. I wasn't too worried about being laid off because I thought finding a new job... — read more 

Well I kept hearing that there was no issue with employees attrition. However it certainly appears that is not the case. Multiple emails begging for help and offering money. Why did people leave in the first place. Was a good chunk of them because... — read more 

What will be the most common words or phrases tomorrow at the SH Town Hall? Not selling TAP Efficiency Very excited Please share others for fun in this dismal time.

Being told you're valued and then being replaced by overseas hires you're forced to retrain and welcome with smiling faces! Nothing productive here, just toxic realism.

Yesterday was probably my hardest day at work after more than five years here. Once again I wondered "what am I even doing here?" I'm bored. I feel terribly bored at work the last few weeks. For a long time I was dissatisfied with the... — read more
