Well we found out last week that job cuts are coming to our group. Approx 1% of headcount on regulars. A lot of contractors got axed last week. The company is making efforts to move people before that happens. Part of that was a pitch for a job working with the sales team to design and validate technical solutions as well as get them running after the customer buys stuff.
I applied got an interview and was offered a job. I applied cause I thought it was interesting, not cause I was worried about my current spot. There is a lot of travel - approx 60%. Anyway, I told my boss yesterday I probably would not take it, he said I should. There are across the board cuts coming to the stuff I work on and in my group it would probably be me and one other unspecified person. We already lost 2 contractrs who were backfilling for us.
