More lay-offs is all I have heard in 6 months. Less actually. Waiting till the next quarter to announce so they don't have to pay them all out in the same quarter.
Bet that they don't come from Chicago or Cincinnati either. Cincinnati is where all the previous Hillshire workers or rejected ones went. Is that what you're getting at?
I am tired of Hillshire as well. I wouldn't be surprised if it went the route of ConAgra (Current CEO is Hillshire's previous one) where they became ConAgra Brands and split them apart too.
Everyone from Chicago only seems to last 12-18 months before moving to another company anyway. Just long enough to cause chaos and before they actually have positive/negative or really any tangible results they vanish to some other company.
They would also rather pay more to outsource than do things in-house at a cheaper rate because it is the only thing a small company like Hillshire knows how to do.
