The long term corporate strategy will yield an increase in already burgeoning profits that will result from a significant reduction in the corporate tax rate, soon to be forthcoming. The reduction in the corporate tax will be coupled with deep across the board reductions of our labor force. By simultaneously reducing our corporate tax rate and our labor force, the company has already posited projections. These projections of increased profits will fuel the long term plan of increasing the bottom line, fueling expansion in cash reserves that will fuel further mergers and acquisitions, yielded dividends to shareholders, corporate leadership bonuses, and overall domestic and global positioning. The most significant reductions will be in facilities management that will push the bottom line by outsourcing initiatives. Age, years of service, education, "special ties" are irrelevant. Additionally, while yet further reductions in IT will be forthcoming, even deeper cuts will happen in Supply Chain staff, at every level. Increasingly, it has become realized that approaches to Supply Chain Management that are necessary to maintain quality as a function of every level and yet reduce costs. Automative technologies are forthcoming but a temporary reduction response will babe realized by outsourcing and consolidation of our global supply chain human resources. This is seen as necessary because it has been concluded that Supply Chain operations can and must be fulfilled more effectively and efficiently for enhancing the bottom line. Hardest hit will be Maryland, where many believe costs in Facilities, Supply Chain, and yes, the already depleted IT force, are "fat catted" by salaries that are too high, particularly for salaried personnel. Those who think they are "too valuable" will realize they were merely too costly for the bottom line. I am disappointed that while I voted for Trump, the significant piece that will, for sure, be realized, is the potential to yield dramatic enhancements to profits through simultaneous reduction in domestic corporate taxes AND slashing Facilities Management, Supply Chain operations, and IT. Someone else or something else will do what these current operations do, for far less AND the threshold of the old platinum standard of fringes many of us were accustomed to. While MD Facilities Management, Supply Chain, and IT are in the splash zone, other splash zones in the south and west may be forthcoming by 2024. MD operations is the epicenter. Further, the deregulation that has happened is is continuing to happen as the result of all industries lobbying efforts, especially ours, energy, and chemical, these efforts, will actually make it much easier to bring reductions and rather than a little bone with meat on it on your way out, it is now easier to just give a bone. If things seem normal, they are not, if some people are edgy, they only know part of the coming reality. Some who have went to other places within the organization at the throes of cutting labor forces elsewhere from MD are in the epicenter of of an upcoming earthquake. Our work ethic, loyalty and pride are only equaled by the fact that no one is exempt and we are all expendable to increase the bottom line.
