UPSers are far more expensive to maintain than consultants.
it may be but as far as I know consultants/supplemental staff make far more than I do or even more than my manager does.

I also heard these are supposedly the people who were rated as LE and it is not because of Global Development. True we have some dead wood and if these people are actually rated LE they should have been dealt with before now.
The rating of a person as LE is a big mystery to me. There is no place where my job is documented so that I could possibly know what is “expected”. The rank and rate is done outside of the QPR process. (QPR being another joke). From what I have seen they use “Least Best” as being LE and you get labeled LE when matched against your peers in your department.
I heard Shared Services is next week and if you listen to their people they have to have the bottom 10% in every department identified as LE.
and air_upser is also right in saying that nothing gets done any longer unless u run it up the chain, and your manager runs it up the chain, and his manager runs it up the chain, etc., etc., etc. No one wants to make a decision.
Its very sad to see this happening.. Each day you know coming in the office another person is probably going to be walked out. But I do have one question for everyone in IS..... Have you looked at the org chart for IS recently?? I don't want to sound shallow here, but we're frankly way overstaffed in some groups and way under in others. ..and to those who enjoy an hour breakfast in the cafe, then another 1 or 1 1/2 hour lunch, followed by another hour coffee break in the afternoon.... ....for 10 years and more now.. People have seen that and so don't feel jacked when you're walked out. Your years of sucking off the system are over. If we (IS'ers) did a better job of self-cleaning, this bs would not have been dropped on us. Think about it a bit... Think about yourselves and daily routine in the office. Don't look at the man and judge.. Judge yourself first and if you feel you did everything you can to make your group attain their goals, then feel pissed the company let you down if walked out. But all of you don't sit there and comment poor us, poor little us... when for many years you allowed the very person sitting next to you to ride the system...
great question...I've heard rumors that they were allowed to keep their RSUs but have not heard anything definite. If they were of retirement age and were ALLOWED TO RETIRE instead of getting laid off, they would keep them.
Does anyone have any documentation handy about the RSUs and how you might lose them if you leave UPS?
Sounds like a morale problem. And when do you supposed that started? Not in the days of Doug Fields during the great expansion of IS. I think it started with Jim M and the IBM type management style of constantly pushing people out and getting younger and less expensive people in. How well can you perform if you're running scared.
