Transparency
Why would you want to true transparency? Why would you want to know who we are being sold to or laid off and when it will happen? Why would you want to know in a timely manner about whether you have to find a new place to live school for your children homecare for elderly parent? Why would you want to know if you need to look for a new job before you are dipping into savings to figure life out? Being a good neighbor company clearly does not equate to being a good employer ...shame on you Follett once one of the most sought after companies in the area to work for is now the most hated. If you were not shady underhanded and overly greed milking that every last cent out you would have already announced to people their futures. Instead you let them sit and speculate scared and stressed because you hold the future in your greedy hand while you posture yourselves for a ridiculous townhall pressing your suits making yourselves look good to the outside world when deep down inside you know it is too late you are already now one of the worst places to be employed. Your name will now forever be nothing but negative when spoken for what you are doing. Where is your ACCOUNTABILITY LEADERSHIP?
Layoffs were probably pushed to mid-late March to avoid having to pay out large vacation balances. At the end of March the severance expense will be lower.
A large layoff happened in mid-February last year even after lies about no upcoming layoffs so I'd expect something to happen. CW has to pay for his botox somehow.
