Pushing for getting new hires done now while there are live candidates because they know there will be a hiring freeze once the hammer falls

A mass email was sent to the sales org on Jan 12th listing all the names. If you want to know who the people are ask a Sales contact to fwd the email to you (since posts with names get deleted here).

The names were listed in a thread yesterday. Unfortunately that thread had a "the sky is falling" spin.

Since names are not allowed, and Im sure people are curious....All I will say is that the VP's of Sales and APS in the US both left this week. 2 major losses.

I don't know about the other VP exits, but this one is not false. There were literally hundreds of US sales folks on the call when they announced it.

Been hearing a lot about VP level exits - but not a single email from the leadership - are thes all false news ?

KK is leaving. He is supposed to be on board with teh CD&R acquistion along with 2000 people for CC but they backed out and now back to square one.

KK continues to send out warm and fuzzy email harping on strong metrics, NPS, CSAT craps where most knows it is jus a smoking screen.

Jim just told us a lot of top US leadership were leaving effective immediately and that company-wide announcement will be made next Wednesday regarding the future of Avaya.

This leaves a lot of uncertainty for the US, which may end up being felt across other regions.
