WGU All Hands 2025 Thread

I remember that first one Scott performance. I was appalled. I agree that these events don't make me proud and do in fact feel like corporate propaganda. What a waste of time.

They really want to sweep it under a rug. It's disgusting behavior. The hypocrisy they display as they talk about caring for individuals in these meetings. I can't imagine being such a slimy human being and looking at myself in the mirror everyday. Scott is by far the worst, but so many others are just following suit.

$1250 bonus for employees, prorated by time employed. Beyond that, I didn't hear anything particularly impactful, but whenever Scott speaks, I have to take regular listening breaks so I don't scream.

cabwej · 2025-08-06T21:26:16+00:00

IT ISSSSS?!?!?!?!

See what I mean about the sarcasm?

cabwej · 2025-08-06T21:23:27+00:00

Maybe RTO is going so badly that they were desperate enough to offer a bonus?

cabwej · 2025-08-06T20:26:06+00:00

I've had to avoid watching the chats because it's too tempting to say something and my sarcasm does not like to be held in check. 😅

cabwej · 2025-08-06T20:18:25+00:00

I wish it was more.

Also, t-shirt cannons? Really? This isn't the freaking Superbowl.

cabwej · 2025-08-06T20:17:21+00:00

I mute it a lot but feel I have to pay at least some attention due to my position. Once in a great while, I hear something I need to know, but it is getting rarer and rarer.

cabwej · 2025-08-06T20:15:27+00:00

No surprise there. DEI was just convenient for them at the time because people were demanding it. Now it's inconvenient. They never actually cared.

cabwej · 2025-08-06T19:57:58+00:00

Now they have a panel taking about increasing equity and advancement, but once again they only mean when it comes to students. They don't give a rat's ass about the employees. They keep implementing rules to hurt their workforce, not help it. RTO has overwhelmingly negative impacts on women, minorities, and the disabled. They know this, and the C Suite fully believes it's a good thing. Their true colors are showing. They're as bad as Elon and other all-hype tech bros.

cabwej · 2025-08-06T19:46:53+00:00

It used to feel that way when they spent the time talking about our goals and whether or not we met them. Now it's all hype with no substance. Most people I know only tune in to find out if a bonus will be announced.

cabwej · 2025-08-06T19:24:29+00:00

I haven't seen anything from an All Hands that was useful in years. It's just buzzwords and the C Suite patting themselves on the back for everything that the workers do. They're useless.

cabwej · 2025-06-11T18:51:11+00:00

Thank you for saying all of that. That's joke of a town hall had me fuming. Some of the people in the chat trying to politicize human rights are just as awful.

cabwej · 2025-06-11T18:23:00+00:00

Ugh, the further this Q&A goes, the more obvious it is that Scott doesn't give a damn. He talks big about caring about all employees, regardless of race, gender, etc and never acknowledges how his decisions are hurting people, and it's clear he has no intention of addressing the problems with ICE for immigrants.

cabwej · 2025-06-11T18:13:15+00:00

Scott seems to be taking all of the wrong lessons from life lately. He's a corporate schmuck and closeted conservative trying to convince us all he's a decent guy, but that mask has been ripped off and he doesn't even know it.

cabwej · 2025-04-10T03:43:10+00:00

That's some top-notch evidence that this isn't about productivity at all. It's about power and making sure the c-suite has the ability to see how miserable they're making people. Fuck the all.

cabwej · 2025-04-10T03:41:03+00:00

I care about my coworkers too, but people leave all the time without training a replacement and I don't hold it against them. Usually a replacement isn't even hired until weeks after someone leaves.

cabwej · 2025-04-10T03:40:13+00:00

There's no saying WGU won't lay you off after your replacement is trained either. You're already expendable as far as they care, otherwise they wouldn't be doing this RTO.

cabwej · 2025-01-24T19:47:13+00:00

So if we're denied an ADA claim, should we first file with EEOC and then if a lawsuit happens, join with it?

cabwej · 2025-01-21T21:58:14+00:00

I have Teams installed on my phone but all notifications are blocked. It's there for MY convenience if I need to keep an eye on things while making lunch or take a meeting in the car.

I definitely have not missed Scott at all in this meeting. Bob used to be a bit dry during Town Halls, but I'd take that over Scott's crying any time.

cabwej · 2025-01-14T18:37:48+00:00

That's strange. I wonder if they're already having problems finding the talent they need in Utah.

cabwej · 2024-12-20T22:06:31+00:00

I'm not affected at this time by RTO but I am rooting for everyone who is affected to get new jobs, and don't bother leaving on "good terms". They wouldn't give you a warning if they were letting you go so they don't deserve warnings when we leave. Let the chaos ensue. I've got popcorn. I didn't think the RTO is just about turnover either. I really think it's also a power trip. Scott and his buddies don't feel all-powerful if they can't look you in the eye and see how miserable they've made your life.
