Thank you for your feedback. The recent changes involved position eliminations, which were necessary due to evolving business needs and strategic priorities. While these decisions are never easy, they are made with the long-term success of the organization in mind. We remain committed to supporting our associates through these transitions and maintaining open communication during such times.
