Well, they have laid off the US Accounts Payable team - they will be around for a bit, but - end is near. I've heard that Connections has stuff coming, and that Higher Ed will have layoffs in Feb or Mar.

From today's town hall, PC was demoted. Hiring from outside of Pearson for his role. 10-15% reductions mostly from higher education which is about 150 - 200 people that will be laid off from global product. Everything is changing.

Technology has been pretty much gutted. There is not much left in customer service and technical support.
