Symantec just laid off a whole ton of people about 3-6 months after selling half their huge office to Veritas in Springfield, Or.
Guess what happened to the laid off positions? All outsourced to third parties outside of the US. I know by acquaintance at least 3 people affected by the layoffs. Before Veritas bought half of Symantec’s property I am sure the office had at least 1,000 IT staff. Maybe 2,000. Now I know this isn’t immigrants taking the jobs. But I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the lay offs were not outsourced but given to new laborers from India. In fact, I would be shocked to find out that none of the employees were replaced by foreigners.
If it is IT department then sell their stock now..
I have made a career out of fixing software that was previously outsource to overseas
