Exactly. This is just a response to the changing administration, not anything business-related. When their guy was President they could live in Silicon Valley and twist the thumbscrews, but their gonna be out of pork-power for awhile.

This company deserves to go under. It has done me no good at all. Ever since I tried to approach the company for venture capital, they ignore my request. Karma comes to you batch!

couldn’t happen to a bigger bunch of scumbags. lets hope the other 90% are gone in short order. carlyle are one of the lynchpins in our sordid petrodollar/arms laundering scheme we run with the worst of the worst in the middle east. carlyle is a prominent landing zone for former high-ranking govt officials the world over…a reward for helping the company rifle through so much suspicious garbage while these people are in office

I guess if you lay of people faster than your competitors, you win? The theory doesn’t work so well when everyone tries it.
