Bell: Layoff Notices Roll Out

Source: https://www.iphoneincanada.ca

Reports on the Bell subreddit indicate another round of layoff notices rolling out, sparking concern among employees.

 One user described seeing letters posted in primary office locations, notifying staff about which “Management Employees” and Business Units would be impacted. “Here we go again,” the user wrote, adding that similar postings marked the beginning of layoffs earlier this year.

The original poster shared their experience, saying they received an email notice about the first wave of layoffs but hadn’t yet seen letters posted in the office. “Oh well… this is sad,” they wrote.

“Bell gave everyone a “return from long weekend” surprise by laying off a large number of people from the corporate side, from all levels up to director. This time Bell didn’t even announce anything, unlike the mass layoff earlier this year,” said the original poster on Tuesday.

In a reply expressing shock, a lineman based in Granby, Quebec, revealed they were among those being let go, set to leave by December 31. “I’ve worked here for 14 years. I started at 19,” the worker shared, adding that they had relocated to Granby three years ago for the job. “I love being a lineman for Expertech… but next year, I’ll be jobless. My experience is worth nothing because telecom right now is not hiring. I am so lost right now.”
