This place is so hectic, every few month there is a reorganization- layoffs, then hires, then layoffs again, bet all those consulting companies are rubbing their hands. Transformational projects my a--, they just try to make investors happy. I’m so glad I got out.

At what location did you work? Are they laying off in Carrollton, TX office?
It is not surprising to see management throw employees under the bus to cover their behinds. Using consulting firms is a popular option. The consulting firm may recommend some sort of outsourcing arrangement, further generating $$$ for themselves. They may even offer to "hire" the company's employees to take the employee problem off the company's hands. If employee A is hired and later fired by said consulting firm, the company protects itself from a lawsuit. They claim that the entire outsourcing was a "business decision." It would be interesting to see what happens to these types of company after such a decision. Do they go down the drain, barely stay afloat, or experience true growth again?
I worked there for 7 years and the company has been great to me.
Worked there for a year, moving on was a good choice. Made some good connections, though.
