A little bit sad about the tone. It's certainly a reasonable thing to do, reading this,

"We did look at a number of different options but ultimately concluded that we had to restructure our organizations in order to improve our effectiveness and efficiency as a business."

An ever-so-slight amount of corporate sheen on the writing, a little bit less emotion. A dangerous step away from being a personable company people trust.

On the plus side, they are being pretty generous with time for those let go, outplacement support, and possible severance packages. Just hope they can retain a personable face.




That's a nice way to put it. However, the reality is they went on an insane hiring spree over the past 3 years and hired a lot of useless people. I'm surprised they are only cutting 200.


Isn't that like 1% of their workforce? 2000 would be news.
