Another one opens. I can say that with certainty. Be hopeful people! Follett IS NOT the end all, be all. You don't deserve to be treated unfairly, nor have your confidence stripped. Move on sooner than later, there are great opportunities out here, I can attest to that. I landed a better paying job with a better company in under 2 months. Working with a bunch of insecure and stressed people is not my idea of a healthy environment. Give yourselves the best Christmas present this year...start looking for a new job.

That is great advice, and should give most everyone hope for a brighter future. Even if Follett begins to treat its employees with respect, the company as a whole, and the textbook industry faces continual decline. They will continue to cut employees to keep the bottom line up as sales decline. The future of textbooks is digital, and Brytewave is Follett competitive answer. Many more changes in the org structure coming up. IT and accounting are dead ends. IT folks, when you look around and see more outsiders from India than Follett IT employees you realize the end is near. My department used to work with internal IT, and now I work directly with Infosys.
