The AZ way: let not the misfortune of the displaced taint your future.Everyone knows it starts with zip codes. Where it goes from there is a mystery. There No sense around this. I feel so guilty for being here. Middle of the road numbers. In a few weeks we will all forget the 400 just like we forgot the casualties 11 months ago.
AZ is full of great people. So if the cuts are deep enough, they will always lay off great people in some capacity.
The AZ way: let not the misfortune of the displaced taint your future.
People who still work at AZ act as though it is a career misstep or bad luck to mention or maintain open friendships after a separation, whether by lay off or voluntarily leaving for a new job.
Never mention by name those that were fired. They are pariahs. They never existed, and are dead to the company. Shun them for they are afflicted. Turn your head if you see them walking towards you.
Bullshit- plenty of people near the top were shut cannedBottom tier sales performance determined lay off status. The same criteria is being employed for the other sales forces. Best to work hard and deliver the $s.
Bullshit. You have no idea how they choose. I was displaced last December. Never really realized how much my unhappiness was linked to my co workers. I've moved on and am much happier. Good luck to those who were displaced - you won't miss this C rated company!
BIG LIE!! Only poor performers were axed. I know the HQ analyst responsible for the selection process. Y'all got to bring in the sales $s or it's bye bye.Couldn’t have been performance based because I know someone who recently went to circle (pre covid) and was let go. Phenomenal rep, too. Az’s loss!

To the two above posters, you both may be right. AZ is all about what have you done for me lately. You may have been a COE winner several years back but not within last couple. Also, if you are truthful regarding access and that access sucks, you will be gone.
I do wish we laid off people based on behaviors like they say we are all about but alas, it always comes down to rankings.
But how are those rankings calculated?
Good people get cut all the time. I even know an outstanding rep that got fired just because their manager was a jerk.Couldn’t have been performance based because I know someone who recently went to circle (pre covid) and was let go. Phenomenal rep, too. Az’s loss!
