Company execs don't care about employees; all the positive rhetoric is solely to get employees to work hard toward company goals so that the execs can continue to get their large bonuses. They just announced internally (after telling the public that they met goals for last fiscal year) that salaries are being frozen because of "macroeconomic conditions" and the need to operate leaner and control/reduce costs, so that there will be the possibility of a bonus pool next year. They constantly re-org management and are reviewing product lines and staffing levels. Our managers have already been told that there can't hire in the U.S. and that any headcount replacements or new hires (if any) must be done in India. Employees are finding themselves in the position of hiring and training the people who will replace them. Execs are building more and more offshore teams and shipping our jobs there. They are cutting internal IT projects, asking people to curb WebEx use for cost reasons, etc. The coming months are shaping up to be bleak ones for employees and their families. Lots of uncertainty, which is just business as usual in high tech companies these days,
