Layoffs at Medtronic and Medtronic Care Management Services have begun. They are trying to reduce staff by 8000 worldwide. Both Medtronic and Medtronic Care Management Services are now fully integrated with a off shore consulting company called TATA and no longer are using us resources for development. They have off shored most of the development, project lead work, but still keeping some in US as contractors for managers. They hire the contractors for 18 months then give them 60 days off and rehire them for 18 months again. MDT was a good company but now I would say that has past.
