Yep.The final People with over 25 + years experience and over age of 60 were let go last week with ISP since department head could meet their 10% budget cut.
Feel bad for remaining people who have to pick up other people's work.
They could of cut a manager.

People leaving as part of the VSP are staying through the end of the year. However some long-term employees have been laid off this week, one I heard about via Teams. I think there are many more coming in Dec and Jan. That’s why they want us to update our career profile.
