IF Raleigh goes today, I cannot see how Charlotte could be far behind.
The axe is swinging in Raleigh. Packages are being handed out and they are going to the best reporters who cover important beats.
The packets are going out to everybody. Management wants to see if some people will fall on their sword first before they start axing people. Please don't post inflammatory and wrong information.
Some folks are receiving involuntary packages.
Some people are being informed that their pay will be cut.
Packages are not going out to everybody. Some people are being given voluntary buyouts while others are being involuntarily laid off. Others are not being given a package of either kind but are receiving a pay cut and a week long furlough.
Some people have been told that 78 positions are being eliminated here.
It has begun at The Star.
