We've gone from ~80 employees down to 25 in about 6 months. Also the IT
dept was scaled down from 5+ people to just me. We finally got a network
guy rehired to help me out, but I'm still working long hours with no
chance for time off. The only point Im trying to make is, don't ever
think that they won't axe half the company, or an entire dept, as I have
seen it happen more than once.
