My manager is in new meetings this week which were unplanned. As he is a friend he said that things are going to accelerate quickly to clean house to get leaner for possible IPO offering. Anyone not pulling the weight will be gone to lower the costs. Reduction in travel, events and meals. I don't have to worry because he is a friend but I feel sorry for some of the people that are going to get cut.

if you are a friend you dont have to pull any weight. Just gain more and someone will pull yours.
buying emc was very stupid idea indeed ..
" I don't have to worry because he is a friend"
yup. That is why people are not trimmed based on their competence. Just like these two incompetent person in my team that continuously scores the worst possible competency metrics and get promoted. Their basic job is hanging around talking nonsense, bully the others, first to be trained, last to understand and work.
Even if all are pulling their weight still someone will go.
Remember when the acquisition was announced, it was all about the sales synergies according to MSD? What a load of crap. Good luck to all of the ex-EMC-ers being wasted...
