The entire IT services just got outsourced to Accenture and everyone got laid off. This is just the beginning. Marketing, finance, HR and legal are next.

Fire Those Guys!
Fire Them, Not Me
InfoSec wins by a long way. How many people do you need to manage a CrowdStrike installation and getting signature updates ? It is a complete sham that is protected by their corrupt Directors like Ted Mahar and management. These are some of the most inept people. And @f2 if you think InfoSec keeps the company running then you are a stupid stupid person. InfoSec is bloated to a point it should be cut down by 50% at least. But good luck selling your already incompetent management that you solve real time security problems. Guess you were on vacation during Meltdown and Spectre
@fn nope. IT and InfoSec win, by a lot. Just because you don't like the leadership of a unit that means you dislike the unit. In both IT and InfoSec, both leadership and the unit are highly disliked. If you don't it's because you are either part of those groups or you mysteriously never had to deal with them.
@fm HR, ELT, LTD, CEO
@f2 see how you are all arrogant? Somehow believe that the company runs because of you, when the truth is that it runs despite of you. Tell me of a more hated/disliked group in the company, please.
Clearly someone read the memo
Try turning it off and back on again
Now with Accenture pushing the button
@f2 haha right. I can see how that is working out. You have people who know nothing about security and just manage tools. I remember a 0-day and dealing with your team and it was a nightmare.
@ac keep the company running. Such an ignorant comment.
Is this really true?
@ag everybody in InfoSec is arrogant. Starts at the top but goes all the way down. They all pretend to be perfect and almighty, but all they do is hide all the issues that we have and act as if nothing is happening. What a terrible group.
@af yeah include all those InfoSec cr-p that has been doing nothing but managing some tools. Start with Mahar what an arrogant ahole
Nobody outside of IT will be sad. I truly hope that includes InfoSec and it's leadership.
These the guys who setup AD ? What do they do ?
I heard the same.
Guess you missed the memo - this is the last week for marketing already (~90% of them anyway). Friday is their last day officially, but most of those impacted have already turned in their PC's.
Meanwhile oregonian is taking over intel press team duties. Watch out for juicy tabloid gossips in the making ;)
Someone finally noticed the ironically named IT Services, two words that should never exist in the same sentence.
They they did the only thing that made sense, which to promote all those involved to customer.
