They will eventually replace all onshore workers with CTL India workers ... and then the middle managers who made it happen will retire early (job well done) ... shameful.

The reason a forum like this exists is due to the stealth layoffs and cuts that happen all too often, if they were transparent this place would not exist.

They have been beating on the Techs for years this way, they have moved the bar up the ladder and it appears that testers, whom they call agents now in multiple Organizations as well as National Legacy Qwest are now being a target also.

Well then do share locations and counts. Those of us with our necks on the chopping block would love to know. If it's real, it shouldn't be that hard to share location.

Are you going to the employee’s homes? I thought Jeff said 85% of the company was working from home. I’m sure you’ll be asking to stay for dinner and a game of boggles.
