AS UX Principal has been terminated and he was one of the good ones. Sabre is a bunch of fools. Not a great sign for AS as UX is typically a good indicator of future innovation.
As consulting , around 1/3 is gone.
I know of 3 top level management positions, VP of EUC, CIO of P&T, and one other.
Also, a handful of employees that have been here for years. Probably due to their salaries being higher with their tenure.

I don't mind getting laid off but atleast they should give better severance package else the brand name will be gone for a toss. No one will never think of working here. Soon you will find many talented chaps quitting because of this.
