Work Fuckery
Jun. 15th, 2026 06:48 pmWell my job has outsourced the financial shared services department. (IE where I work) We had meetings today over teams. One group got told they are being let go on or around mid August. I was not in this meeting. The meeting I was in was to let us know we were the 'lucky' ones who are really good at what we do so we are going to receive 'equitable' offers from the new company this week. Equitable does not equal the same. The higher ups answering questions on the call were dumbfounded and almost speechless when someone asked if we do not take the offer from the new company will we get severance? They were like we will get back with you. Got to love corporate america... (insert sarcasm here) I honestly do not know which group got the better news. Being tossed off the sinking ship or being offered to stay as it slowly sinks? Guess it will depend on what they believe is equitable. Google searches of the new company are not promising.

I sincerely hope that whatever happens it works out so well you're shocked.
