Our TC and PC were told weeks ago to start looking for other positions if they did not want to leave. Severance will be offered however, if there is a comparable paying position available and they don't take it, no severance will be offered.
They were told there is no definite date as of yet for their eliminations but by end of year. Most SM won't say anything until they have to. They don't want people leaving before the job is eliminated. Then they would have to fill a job temporarily.
