"The sad reality is that your local leadership knows nothing. They are in the dark just like you. On the Proximity claims side, the TMs found out same day as impacted employees. Worse, when it came time for impacted employees to opt-in or opt-out, there was no place for local management to put in their comments. Meaning, decisions are being made somewhere else, by someone that doesn't know you, and using unknown criteria to make that decision. My best advice: Accept that change is coming to all areas of the company at some point soon. If you can not wait for the change, or accept that change is coming, leave now rather than later. You will have less competition for jobs now. If you stay, get your financial house in order just in case & be mentally ready to weather the coming storm. The prize for keeping your job will be doing the same amount of work with far fewer people. Congratulations!"
