Albany NY Office

Any news about Albany? We’ll be down to less than 50 employees by the end of October. Hard to believe they’re renegotiating a lease with so few people left.

I resigned after over 20 years. Hard decision to make. The not knowing was really getting to me. I am too young to retire and it is hard to tell how long the Quincy office will be open. I start a new job on Monday.

During the town hall Stone said "treate people how you would want to be treated. If they sue you they sue you, so what". Either Stone considers employees less then human or he likes to be treated like tra$h to be taken out every other quarter.
