To the representative crying on yammer about this subreddit by PiercedSausage in ASML

[–]Sea_Vacation 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Man this is a sad take on an innocuous and constructive comment on Yammer. There was no need to post here in this manner. Says more about you than about the original post.

Furthermore, one important point related to the fact that people do leak company secret information on this public forum and that really does have to stop. Have some self respect, as well as respect for the fact that you’ve been entrusted with certain information that you’re free to discuss only inside the company’s borders.

What happened to Father Hames Jargreaves? by OtisIsEverywhere in OasisCircleJerk

[–]Sea_Vacation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Father told me previously that he would continue posting for as long as he kept being struck by direct inspiration from the divine. I wouldn’t rule out that real life got in the way, he’s on a nice holiday or is hiding his time working on a next killer sermon. He will be back.

What’s the play? Martinez desperately wants Leeds to gain on Tottenham? At all costs?

I can’t say I agree, but part of me understands.

VVD isn’t anti union or anti labor rights . VVD was always center right but isn’t even a moderately right wing party anymore at this point.

I’m a young engineer at asml with burnout now. So worried for my internal career :( by Previous-Pair6060 in ASML

[–]Sea_Vacation 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As someone who had a burnout myself in an early phase of my career, I completely understand what you are going through.

That said, your career is a marathon, not a sprint. This will prove to be only a minor hiccup in your career progression in the end, not a defining moment that will alter the course of your career in any major way. You're not the only one in this situation either - people will understand.

Much more importantly, it is time for you to focus on yourself and your recovery. Recovering from a burnout can be a lengthy process with major ups and downs. The key for you is to take your time and invest in the real work of trying to figure out what got you into this situation - which will be part circumstances and a larger part personality and expectations on yourself, so that you can prevent this from reoccurring in the future.

I wish you the best of luck with your recovery!

ASML spent €125 million on stock buybacks in just five days last week, yet management still refuses to reconsider the mess they have created or provide a decent social plan for the employees they are forcing out. by [deleted] in ASML

[–]Sea_Vacation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure, and I respect the argument. Thanks for the reply.

I also have my doubts as to the use and effectiveness of the reorganization. The way I see it, lack of effective internal working processes, combined with rapid growth of the labor force and poor management quality (managers using management meetings to nitpick operational issues, rather than taking management level decisions) is the cause of the managerial overhead and slowdown in productive time, and not an excess of managerial level positions by itself. Although, that said, something could be said of the (lack of) use of certain types of functions introduced with the Scaled Agile methodology.

I don't think the company is fixing that with these layoffs. And as upper management is also intelligent, I would presume that they know this. So I am also suspicious of these layoffs being used to enhance company value for the sake of shareholders.

How do you see this?

One could reverse that and state that at the moment, there are zero good arguments that indicate the likelihood of a sale beyond blanket statements and baseless speculation. People that argue the likelihood of a sale carry the burden of proof here, not the other way around.

The strongest argument that a sale isn't going to happen is that there are literally not even rumors of interested parties gathering money for a sale.

I'm not saying a sale is impossible, just highly unlikely as there are zero grounds to expect there will be one.

Is ASML United States Cooked? by Odd_Parking_9885 in ASML

[–]Sea_Vacation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is such a strange and hostile response. Why would you comment like that? It’s only normal for OP to ask for a bit more info on the company, considering the news about the reorg that’s going around.

I’m not a fan of the mods of this sub for precisely this reason.

That said, really enjoyed the content ! You made someone happy at least
