Well – this evening sucks. I am hearing from people who are getting the “mandatory meeting at 9:30 tomorrow” emails and our assumption is that they are getting cut tomorrow. The scary thing is that many people in that list are absolutely critical and very much needed to get the job done. A second group of people have mandatory meetings at 11:00 we don’t know if that is more cuts, or post-cut reorg meetings…
Erci is in the second group. One valued and essential co-worker from my own team is in the first group and several other that my team rely on every week are also in the first group.
Worst layoff ever, and I’ve been through many of them since starting at AOL in 1995.
