I'll be seeing some PPEDs in my meeting this afternoon and will see if I can get more details. Hang tight!

Soooo, kevin virostek crashed our meeting. I thought about asking him about the layoffs but didn't have the balls to 😬 but I talked to our civilian account partner and she send we are just not seeing the revenue that we forecasted. A lot of companies are pausing (especially with the new administration coming in) and waiting to see how things play out. For example, M&A has basically dried up for us. The economy is obviously temporary, but we just can't afford to keep that large of a bench, hence the layoffs. However, GPS is hiring and we anticipate that 4 out of 5 people we hire will be IT. So if you have an IT background and are located in the D.C. metro area or are interested in relocating, come to the dark side of federal! 😈 hope that explanation helps.

Working remotely the last three years has become a way of my life and supports our current situation well, therefore I am seeking a similar role but will consider other opportunities.
