[QUOTE="Channahon, post: 285888, member: 7666"] I'm not in Coporate IE, but have been involved in some district and region consolidations. The consideration for consolidating is all about logistics and cost savings. Where is the best locations for Region and District Staff to travel within their regions or districts. So in reading the latest consolidation on UPSer's.com, it makes sense for the realignments. More territory to manage with less management. Since the mid 90's - 6 regions have collapsed out of 11, which leave 5 regions domestically. And numerous districts have been consolidated over the years. Now if only the people left in the Regions and Districts were able to do their jobs to the best of their ability, rather than be micro-managed, then that would make the management left to manage jobs more bearable. I understand the cost savings needed to keep this company profitable, the only concern I have is some of the smaller districts and regions were for training purposes, with the intent to move someone along, after 2-3 years, to gain experience and take on more responsibility. Now you have some management who are not qualified for a position, will get the position because of where they live. Because relocations are virtually non existent nowadays. JMO [/QUOTE]
