IT at CCA headquarters in Grand Blanc was mostly wiped out today. Project managers, architects, business analysts, testers, operations, and programmers. Apparently someone decided IT needs to be in the innovation centers and not located with the business customers they support every day.

I was told the week before I was let go that a manager was already telling her team she intended to offshore work. Allegedly she has some sort of tie in with a colleague that owns the company she is planning to use.
Some consultants already must have quoted to run these systems effectively for half the price using third world laborers
WOW - Only looking at the salary "cost" not the "cost" of lost productivity, but I'm sure they can get the same level of service and support from a call-center in India, right?
And when the Innovation Centers do not have a clue on how legacy systems work (with those folks wiped out), how is that going to work out for you GM?

Very sorry to hear that. There is a lot of value in having good relationships and easy channels of communication with business partners so that is sad to hear.
