Important! Round One, Remainders to Train

If you are part of a work group that was decimated this week whereby a large percentage of your peers were WFR (Israel for example), unbeknownst to you, the rest of you were kept on board only to provide knowledge sharing until end of June to help leadership support the movement of the function to India mostly.

There is a second round of WFRs to finish this "project" which will fire the rest of decimated teams mid to late June when the work will be moved to India and other low paying locations.

Please do not believe you were "saved", start job searching, and be aware in the coming of weeks around requests for you to train and share knowledge and info with leadership or simply in general on SharePoint and other resources.

This is exactly how I was laid off years ago. I was kept on to train my replacements in India.

this is true. Whoever are left are for training purpose. Just heard they are closing down Costa Rica location end of June.
Not sure what that means, virtual employees or WFR for rest of the folks who survived.

Inside sales for micro focus products all let go. Only our manger and a rep remain. We could have opted to relocate at our expense to TX as mid market must now work only on site at this location only. One week per service year maxed at 12 weeks.
