Do we think they will ask for people to volunteer and get a package or just be hacking away next year?

@a7 don’t forget those were mainly tech jobs which pay more. it’s the next round is more focused on the business it will actually be more employees than that. However, that number is projected over the next several years, so don’t put too much stock in it. I think the offshore is going to be a lot harder than they think it is.
They never socialize it, but I know that some folks have been candid with their leadership and made it work. God knows I tried last go round, it didn't work sadly. That said, gonna try again this time ... I want that severance!!!!!!!
I hope they socialize a volunteer option. If they are really going after 4000+ jobs, that's more than 10% of corporate employees and achieving it will be transformational and really demobilizing to survivors. One way to help the situation is let people volunteer, so those remaining truly want to be here.
Let’s see what the consultants say now. They know best.
this has to be an option. Just back of the napkin, if 1,400+ jobs were cut for $300M severance. A $1B severance we're talking another 4,200+ jobs. Why involuntarily let go 4200+ people if many might just go on their own?
Every person is in a different situation, financially and career-wise... or both
