I heard that all contractors currently have 11/30 as the last day for their contract and leadership hasn’t communicated with any of the contracting companies about extensions.
Anyone know if this is management being slow to communicate, or if we’re going to cut all the contractors loose in a month?
Whatever the pros and cons of using contractors instead of hiring FTEs, the reality is there are teams that have a lot of contractors on them (especially in IT) who are going to have trouble absorbing the workload if those people disappear in a month.
I guess that assumes any of us will be here, sure. But setting that aside, is this a de facto layoff or is there some other plan?
