The rumor mill is saying that 35 CSRs will be cut today. They have a meeting with HR. Also heard that all of the project managers were let go except one. I do know for sure that all EADs were let go except 4 of them. Account Managers still know nothing about their fate.

Does anyone know if the Account Managers for HE are being cut? I heard through the rumor mill that they were told basically nothing in their all hands today. They were told that they will find out within the week. Pretty F'ed to leave all of account management wondering the fate of their jobs when EAD's and CS got cut today and AM's work closely with them...

… and marketing, technology and engineering. VPs and directors and then finishing it off with the worker bees.

Anyone have any insight into the focus of cuts? Mostly sales/marketing? Other places? Beyond just ‘across the board’

The town halls have grown to be a quarterly culling. Best case scenario is we dangle like dingleberries for just a little longer until we are clipped.
