This post has gotten out of hand. Let me clear the rumors.

I have it on good authority, lake Mary is closing and being absorbed by the san Diego office. Most will be offered relo packages. Anyone on the 3rd and 4th floors it will be BYOT. We will be in the 6th or 7th floors in the new office. Anyway, please see the email for more info.

@br good point. I forgot when you do a typical search for TT and LM it’s around 4000 employees so losing 750-900 in lake Mary is probably correct.

@bp I’m told 570 is the approximation. Unclear if this includes the remote workers rolling up to teams in that building. Number may also be inflated from how LM now has several formerly TT groups. Amount can still be estimated from six to seven hundred.

@ac anything is possible. At one point Irvine looked like a mini Basking Bridge. It had 5 buildings with 3 floors. Now it is down to 1 building with basically 2 floors. Bellevue had several buildings as well. Now they don’t even have an office. It’s Wework allowance.

More info rolling out regarding the car wash. The solar panel awnings are being converted into washing bays.
5 employees will be kept on payroll in order to maintain the building’s existing output.

@ac Tulsa had over 2500 at one point. It's a few hundred at best now. The number of employees at a location now doesn't mean Jack.

@ac I heard 749, and turning the building into a car wash. D-n G given the boot for not having car wash leadership experience.

VGS planned for most Lake Mary functions to be offshored and/or outsourced.

@a3 750 people, even 500 people lacks critical thinking or a lack of understanding of what goes on in the Finance COE of Lake Mary.
