Even if they are moving some jobs over, someone should still file a petition. There have been cases where the ENTIRE company locations have gotten unemployment extensions (even those departments that weren't offshoring jobs). Another words, let's say Company ABC's in Dallas TX Financial group had some of the jobs being offshored. The Judge ruled in such a way that not only those few employees got TAA, but the entire location of Dallas, TX. So anyone who works in Dallas get's TAA. A group of you should file and see what happens. Talk to your state representative. It is a win-win for everybody if the judge rules in favor of the employees. This is really good for those who are near retirement. Someone at VMware should look into it more with your state and your company rules. I'm not sure if your severance will be affected so make sure you check with HR before filing. They always have some small print stuff when you initially signed the contract to get the job. Doesn't hurt to make a few phone calls.

Yes they are moving the jobs to other countries buy bringing Infosys, HCL, Wipro etc..etc .. the companies making American fools by establishing their offices here.. giving the cuts to CIOs and upper management and average American IT workers are losing big time..

Broadcom isn’t moving jobs overseas though, they are just cutting jobs. There is a difference.

Is this relevant for anyone besides order management or GSS people let go recently whose roles went to India or Costa Rica? It looks like you have to find 3 people and provide references who can back up your claims?
