The overwhelming majority of companies are having just furloughs and are already getting ready to call people back and yet here we are with layoffs - as permanent as it can be. Why is that? Is Gulfstream certain it will not recover even after the... — read more

Is it the usual package or have they made any changes?

Nice job.

Rumor has it that all of the managers and higher ups were having a meeting this morning to determine whats going to happen with departments, if anyone else is getting cut, etc. Anyone here happen to hear the outcome of that meeting?

WTOC news says 700. I believe that is just the number of permanent employees and doesn’t include contractors. That number seems low for the permanent employees as well.
