Just waiting for word that DST Output is shutting down operations with everyone losing their job
Just waiting for word that DST Output is shutting down operations with everyone losing their job. It's a poorly run dying company in a dying industry, and a matter of time.
People saying "I glad those people were laid off", or "Maybe I'm good at what I do, and that's why I was not laid off" are idiots
People saying "I glad those people were laid off", or "Maybe I'm good at what I do, and that's why I was not laid off" are idiots. Only an idiot would say something like that. I think that idiots were kept because the idiot managers who make the... — read more

Why not personal insults? We have an individual here who's personally insulting pretty much all of us who got laid off? Why he or she should be spared our just responses crafted in the same fashion?
Unfortunately, a small department was laid off in the East recently.

Maybe I'm lucky, maybe I just do my job well. But 2 promotions in 4 years puts a smile on my face. Complaining about all the hoopla does no one any good and brings down the moral of everyone around. Still working here - still happy here. Dream job?... — read more
DST is/was memorable as one of the worst businesses I ever reviewed
DST is/was memorable as one of the worst businesses I ever reviewed. We conducted a IT security review on behalf of a large investment client - results were appalling and scary. DST could not have cared less.

More layoffs started Monday 1/30/12, and continue today 2/1/12. Good people, seems like the layoffs are random. Maybe DST mgmt is just throwing darts at an org chart to fill a quote!

Congratulations DST Output, 167 on the InformationWeek 500 of Top Technology Innovators
Congratulations DST Output, 167 on the InformationWeek 500 of Top Technology Innovators. I guess those 90 people laid off in March (many in engineering) where "innovated" right out of the company.
