Third time unlucky? HPE in redundancy talks with UK services staff

Re: How about a bit of Management Management

It is happening, although usually fairly quietly. Lots of "middle" managers have been leaving and then all the staff they had are left to report up to the next level. One manager I know of has almost 100 people reporting to him thanks to this! I hear he's been trying to delegate responsibilities out to technical team leaders but with no sign of a payrise for taking it on, no one wants to know.

My last two managers were both made redundant over the last year or so and each time my team were just moved under another person alongside all their existing staff.
