the rapid push for da a in certain areas is so they can lay off staff. Can anyone confirm this would like to confirm from just people in my area. its funny how when you ask about it no one has heard anything but to hear from top people makes you wonder. ask them to put it writing you will never get it answered. they are aiming for big $$$ people which is why you see many taking retirement now. look around and think for your self before its too late...
"has any discussions of layoff's in my group happened........"
HR has been a part of these talks also for legal reasons and discussions.
who knows maybe it was a dream????
