Well at least NTAP is hitting middle and upper management layers - IBM isn't and generally doesn't.

It does seem like there is pressure in the industry to get rid of top heavy management layers. Microsoft and Ibm peeps will work to increase management. How long will it take George to figure it out is the question.

they should cut/strip from the top down. Too much favoritism and buddy clubs in upper management. Too many incompetent mid mgrs get promoted by their buddies. They need to clean house in that area before the IC.

CloudCheckr was gutted to the point I’ll be surprised if the remaining customers re-new. Their vision for the future isn’t going to work without the project they just cut.
