The CEO has the audacity to ask why the features released in the last month were less than in the past.

Did you forget that you made every single person in the company take a 1-week furlough? Are you serious?

Pay decreased today. Better than a furlough but still sucks. 😒

Hey guys I'm back, after weeks of furlough.

Any community manager/builder here? How do you manage communications among online team(s)? Especially when they're not forthcoming with collaboration?

All the contractors have to take furlough for the holidays, but the company spends the money to buy a bunch of $1300 televisions for no better reason than corporate vanity.

I'm sure the softs think it's the greatest thing ever though.

My company just announced we're going to have a one week furlough. It's bad, but not as bad as a layoff. If we miss Q2 (which we will with the current state of affairs), then we will have layoffs starting in July I'm sure.

Hello fellow ranters ,
A few weeks ago we started working from home because of the Coronavirus, I have personally found it very hard to perform at work and have lost all motivation to do anything other than the bare minimum required by the company , around a week ago we were officially furloughed , my question to you guys is : what are some things I can do to exercise my brain and make sure my skills stay sharp, I am a JavaScript , node.js dev , I’m talking coding challenges and other things , also can anyone else relate ?

When it hits you that as a junior your most impacted by this crisis. CEO sends out an email asking for volunteers to go on furlough, next day manager has a meetimg with all the graduates and says we would like you all to take this. Next thing you worry about is whether or not redundancy. Hard to understand they have recently started the program and it will closing soon without any garduates passing it

Working from home is starting to make me hate my job.

Everyone's motivation is so low right now with the 2 or so months we've been working from home. We already had one furlough and I'm pretty sure the next thing is people being laid off. The number of users using our product has significantly dropped, but we're pumping out features that no people are using right now.

I just feel so unmotivated to work especially with a UI team that is unresponsive to build errors I'm having or even general questions. What's the point besides a paycheck? I'm about to start doing the bare minimum to get through a sprint.
