Lets bee honest here - there is a lot of duplication now that both companies have combined. The first to go should always be at the top. Both companies are majorly top heavy. Way too many directors and Vice Presidents that are not necessary. Then the support positions, sales, training, etc. The client facing positions or client critical positions should always be last. Who knows if they will follow that.
Regardless if anyone isn't worried about their job then they are in denial. Expect a lot more reductions. That is the fastest way to cut expenses.
Oh and I know at least 5 people who were laid off in groups that did not have redundancy. It was done at a higher level so two levels of supervisors had no say in who was released.
