WOW, they even do “fake news” to their employees.
CNN has only one Division - The Hate Trump Division.
““I have no idea where that crazy rumor came from,” she said. “We have recently offered a voluntary buyout option for employees, and just over 100 people voluntarily decided to take it. That’s it. We have nearly 4,000 people at CNN … and around 100 of them exercised the option for a program that was offered. That’s it. Those are the facts.”
The company, I worked for decades did the same and offered an early out. About 150 of the long time best sales people and a few managers took the option, including me.
The same bs came from our HR as above. About a year later an entire sales division of over 240 reps and 20 managers were laid off with minimal benefits.
Then, they got serious about firing people across the board.
Next, in one morning, they closed down 80% of the home office in a brutal walk to a security compound with a Kinko box to hold their personal items. Then, security people escorted the parking lots and their cars and insured they left.
HR was still saying this was just normal.
The last layoff was everyone. All, of the remaining employees had to go to a new central parking lot and leave their cars to ride minivans to trailers assigned to letters of the alphabet like A-k.
In the trailers, they got their termination papers and the Kinko box with their personal items. They signed non disclosure and adios papers.
They were then escorted back to their cars and told to leave via a new one way exit onto city streets.
City police were there on the outside city streets and had put up no parking signs for a few blocks outside of the gates. That forced the newly fired to drive into a not too desirable area of the city.
Few if any parked to talk to each other. Cell phones were a rarity at that time. A few people stayed to talk to others, and those few shared the above and then went home.
Zero warnings came from HR after the first voluntary layoff.
A friend, who was among the last fired, complained that he had no idea what was coming.
I told him, that saying that was like walking in a no walking railroad tunnel with the lights of a locomotive and its noise coming behind him. Then, being surprised that theY got ran over by a train in a train tunnel with trains obviously behind them.
So who is next at CNN?
since it’s from CNN, you know you can’t trust a single word of it.
You made such a POWERFULLY TRUE statement that I thought I would loudly rebroadcast it.
Your DR got hacked!
A friend, who was among the last fired, complained that he had no idea what was coming.
I thought CNN said that there were no layoffs coming!
We are told that “no one” listens to radio, yet the dial is still crowded with stations. Except they are mostly in any language but English and those that are in English are using canned playlists of 80 songs on constant repetition even if the format is not contemporary songs.
White people were supposed to buy “pay radio” (truckers and other business travelers did that for awhile). Now they largely use streaming or podcasts because the local stations don’t serve them.
“When my boss ordered me to train my ‘replacement’ before being laid off, I walked. Such an idiot I was. It never occurred to me that the severance package I walked away from might have been worth having around for.”
A younger relative faced the same thing, I told him to come in late, take a long off site lunch and come back late and to leave early.
After one week, they gave him two weeks pay and told him goodbye!
He was hired by a competitor at a better salary and benefits, during that paid 2 weeks off.
His former company went belly up. He has been with the newer company for over 10 years.
CNN employees never know what’s happening in the real world. Those anti-American professional liars get no sympathy from me.
We should start a rumor that CNN is laying off all homosexual reporters and anchors.
Would be a great idea but everyone know if they did that there’d be no one left..
They can learn to code.
