They should not worry about accidentally laying off people in KRK that should not be laid off.
Thanks to this, all those people worth anything will quit before January anyway and the only ones left will be the ones that should be laid off.
So they can just lay off those useless people that remain and close the entire KRK office. Yet another round of layoffs in DFW but without severance this time. Everyone worth anything in DFW quits before January too.
Then they move all that KRK and DFW headcount to BLR instead. Genius plan! Sabre is finished but huge cost savings!
Multimillion $ bonuses all around for C-level executives and Sabre bankrupt before 2019.
