Any update on the remaining 175+ employees at the West End Center?

@yx It’s June for people based on what’s being relayed to those folks working to clear out the floors. May is the date to get the servers all moved to Silas. Some are already being moved to remote depending on need. Not many will be given that option. Probably one final WARN notice posted prior to late June displacements.
Many of the WEC folks who might know something were displaced, including Corporate Properties. The target for infrastructure removal has been May, 2026, for quite a while. Let's take bets: 1) when the machines are gone the people will be gone; 2) the people will be allowed to work from home until they are officially displaced; 3) the people will be expected to fulfill the needs of the business and work in their cars in the WEC parking lot until they are displaced.
I’m in WEC. My educated guess is people out by June 2026. This is based on the big June layoff in 2025 which was predicated on the original lease ending date of September 2025.
The lease is up in September and they do not want to renew. Target exit for apps/servers is May last time I looked. People have not been mentioned.
