The layoffs are part of a worldwide realignment of the workforce to identify existing skill sets and transition employees with legacy skill sets that are of no value to the company going forward .
This review will determine who will stay and who will be let go this fall. There is a overall worldwide target reduction of 8% across the company .
Some positions will be eliminated and others will be let go based on skill sets and how much your immediate manager hates you.
Just another sad an unfortunate chapter in the decline of the company.
You have been warned and always be networking
