Heard from AVP via Sr Dir: “no planned layoffs”

Like a year? How long has it been?
We were told Feb 5, now what?
Everyone was eagerly awaiting the plan reveal February 5th. That didn't happen. Now what? We all operate in confusion without direction? Will it ever be shared? Crazy. You can't make this stuff, this place gets more and more insane every day.

Dan is replacing you with outsourced reps. AI is an excuse.
