You should be worried about next layoffs

Good employees are being pushed out
They're either being laid off or pressured to quit. I don't know what an advantage of getting rid of the best part of your workforce could be either in the short or the long run. Shouldn't we be making sure they remain here? Isn't that what a good... — read more
Too political
This site has become nothing what it was intended to be. Stop with the politics and your “ever so important” and “only you are right” views. It’s a board about employment and layoffs. Can we focus and stop being so childish please? Anyone?? What... — read more
TA su-ks
In TA and it su-ks. I even pray for layoff.

The culture that we are getting into right now with teams, and these group pings is absurd. They say it takes 20 minutes to refocus after you’ve been distracted… these silly group pins and constant teams alerts on pinging are so unproductive and... — read more
Assigned Office Building vs Drop in Space Locations
I don't know about other markets but here in Charlotte we have far too many people that are assigned to work in the Uptown area but use the Ballantyne office more than they do their assigned building in Uptown. It's definitely, a pain in the rear... — read more
