Isn’t this just documenting everything you do, every single thing you do, for it to be offshored? Just wondering your thoughts.

Does anyone know anything about next round of lay offs for EO complaints? Noticed they posted for a June class for overseas job openings...

Looks like risk has already been hit to some degree - and may be clobbered further - but what about audit? Is CS keeping his hands off of this group.
