This is a terrible time for even some of the strongest companies around the world. I can't say that I'm surprised by the action that they've taken....and its likely going to help the company stick around a bit longer than if they hadn't. Hopefully when things blow over, folks will be able to get their jobs back! | ||

Just a question and a thought now that they laid off that many of their staff does that make them eligible for federal relieve money. If they use the language that layoffs were for covid reasons. | ||
