I was right in the middle of that in our company. The corporation does now $2.2B in sales and a market value of almost $10B. The division I was in was about $300M insize. The smallest group of the bunch. I was responsible for manufacturing, engineering, application engineering and a large outside contractor that built powder booths for us. I remember having meetings trying to delay and delay the inevitable, laying off people. I had to contend with an union so there were rules in place that we had to follow, but that didn’t make it any easier standing in front of all those people and letting them know we were going to lay-off 40% in assembly and the munching shop. Those were grim days for me for sure. I could relate to the trials and tribulations that Titan was wrestling with.
Good clip!
