is located) for an expo last summer, we went up to visit their office last
summer too by a request from our colleagues which were from SOM before.
Lots of empty seats, half office is empty there. They laid off many people
last two years. Three guys went to our company after they were laid off.
Hope this information is helpful to you. | j***h

标 题: 这个冬天有点冷,公司开始裁人了
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Wed Nov 26 22:36:22 2008)
知名设计公司,ENR top 50，公司美国总共1000多员工,裁掉200多人,主管谈完话,限定
10分钟离开办公室,不准再用电脑,基本就是背上自己的包就走人.
全公司大概裁了15%
这次裁员没有任何征兆,可能高层已经酝酿一段时间了,非常突然的宣布.
过去一年公司不停的面试人,不停招人,3个月前还有新人来,说是工程10年都做不完,一
个月内,中东,俄罗斯几个大工程全部停了,甲方说没钱了,工程"暂时"停止.
我们结构设计组,裁了大概10%.
一个印度硕士,刚结婚,刚把老婆弄过来,现在连身份都是问题,一个印度phd，情况也类
似。中国员工结构的暂时没有被裁的。
建筑学和规划，大概裁了15%-20%，好几个中国职员被干掉了，真是恐怖啊。
整个办公室，几天都没什么人说话，冷清清的，估计第二波裁员会在明年上半年，因为
很多手头上的工程半年就做完了，经济不好，很难有新的工程近来，结果就是。。。。
。。。
昨天听说，TT也裁了一批人，
菩萨保佑，希望挺过明年！！
