When I left Web early 2020, plans were underway to outsource a lot of the web design to a young company in Kyiv. I wonder about what is happening to those guys now. The Jax employees who went to consult over there had a lot of nice things to say... — read more
What did I miss?
I left this company a little over half a year ago. Since it was important for me to leave as soon as possible, I accepted the first job I was offered, so now I am in a company that is only slightly better than this one. What did I miss in half a year... — read more
TOWN HALL
Sharon owes Web an apology. She undermined our concerns, mocked our questions, and flat-out insulted our intelligence with her non-answers. And the cadre of sycophants who jumped in the chat to defend her (while keeping their name public, to cash in... — read more

The axe came down on Acquisio
Yesterday, 28 were layoffs. That's half the staff of Acquisio. The brand Acquisio won't exist anymore. One of their services, ATD, has been sold as well but the buyer won’t take the employees. Sad Day, Sad Year.
We're sinking
Closing the clinic. EVERYONE saw it coming. Web is now run by id–ts and sycophants. You are not valued. Every little thing that made this company worthwhile has been slowly stripped away. But Web invests in its propaganda machine and the pixie... — read more

Web.com Drums Pa to close
Due to profits, head counts, lack of organic growth, and strong management it is sad to announce that the Drums location will be closing. I am glad to see many employees have found new jobs. See Kelly and Melissa for full details. Jacksonville... — read more
More fired last week
For awareness and accountability (if there's anyone in this company left who cares about such things) Web fired more people last week. COVID has done a number on the bottom line and so, like always, Web gets rid of people actually doing work. Hey... — read more
A bunch of people fired today
For those keeping count, a bunch more people have been fired today. Nice and quietly. Brown-noses still get fired. Might as well go out with your dignity.
April 6th 2020 more lay offs

COVID-19
Web needs to do the right thing and close down now. Have people work from home. Something. The first reported case in Duval was in an assisted care facility just a few miles from the building. This is being mishandled so badly. Human lives are... — read more

Copy of Severance Letter (for those who took the 2/1 date)
Can someone post a copy, or type out what your severance letter said? The thing we signed when the suits were here in December wasn't the severance notice, just a random useless piece of paper. Curious to see if I'm bound by any rules for the... — read more
Bonuses?
Has anyone received any information about bonus payments outside of the public date? Management in my department are remaining very quiet about end of year appraisals and when we will find out respective bonus values?
Last Friday Layoffs at Jacksonville
More layoffs and you can see the list on flock

Someone Is Removing Posts and That Should Scare You
I authored the "Web Can Do Better' post which is now gone. Someone's making sure posts they don't agree with are removed. The fact that even this platform is being censored should scare all of you.

Jobs in PA and JAX are being eliminated Nov 1 2019. In order to get severance, the ones being let go have to train their replacements who will be working in India.
