1552.0. "Management and Layoffs" by ALIEN::EDP (Always mount a scratch monkey.) Tue Aug 13 1991 09:11

    Maybe I have missed this information . . . but a question I have and
    that I have heard commonly is:  How is management being affected by the
    layoffs?  How many managers have been laid off, at what levels?  Are
    they represented in the layoffs proportionately to their numbers in the
    company, or under- or over-represented?  Is the number of levels of
    management being reduced anywhere?

	To be fair, I should also admit that there has been a significant consolidation of the small groups (less than 10 people) into larger groups and a movement of the unneeded supervisors and managers to newly created individual contributor positions. It appears that most of these new positions are benificial. Time will tell... -John

	I heard from a manager at the CXO manufacturing site that other managers over there know their jobs have been eliminated and are scurrying to find other alternatives to the package -- if they don't want to get the package. Joe Oppelt
