Haven't heard much about Mekanism since they won Amtrak or something a while back? Any opinions? Has that work come out yet?

Eh. I kinda hated how they laid off like 20% of staff on Friday then announced their new win the following Monday. A win which was done by people who were laid off.

We lost some of our best talent with the most recent layoffs

I’ve heard from minority-owned (veterans, women, etc.) vendors they contacted during the bidding stage, and presumably included in the bid to land the contract and fulfill the diversity requirements portion, who were ghosted as soon as the ink was dry on the contract.

Avoid. Layoffs on layoffs.

You’re waiting to see the Amtrak work?!

funny

Not particularly, just curious since that was the last thing I saw about them in the trades

Had layoffs yet again. Expecting more rounds this year, as per usual. Last year I believe we had 3 rounds. Nearly impossible to make good work. Avoid if you can.

And they just had layoffs as of last week, brutal and cold. They cut people as soon as they need to regardless of the amount of work and effort folks put in.

Stay away from Mekanism
