We were doing really well at Ansys, and we came in here with very competent people. But I always expected it wouldn’t matter. I started preparing my exit as soon as the first acquisition rumors surfaced, and now I’m negotiating a move to another job. Hopefully it works out. If the timing lines up with being laid off here, even better. If not, I’ll resign and move on. Why fight to stay at a company that doesn’t recognize value or know how to manage experience, skills, and proven results?

@dz thats precisely what Al Hancq was saying to us in FBU and MBU. Lets see how good he keeps his words in the next two months.
You are wise to prepare it earlier. I was too naive to believe what managers told us. They said we are in totally different fields that will not be affected. We respect the engineering culture. Synopsys acquired ANSYS because of the people. We are making money so that we will not be affected. Then, everything changed in two weeks. The top managers should know something before saying these words.
