John Bowman is a class act. This is a big loss for PG.
This community better get their act together as the good ones are leaving rapidly.
Exactly right!
What are the retention plans that IPG has, the City has, the Chamber has, the larger firms have? Do they work together or are they paying lip service to the issue?
What is the current level of the stepping stone scenario that this city plays now compared to the past 50 year period, for instance?
“What are the retention plans that IPG has”
IPG plans to retain a million bucks a year – hows that for a plan? ;)
:-)
Well they have a plan, give us all a million and we could deveope two plans while n a warm beach in Mexico, get more out of it in the long run
CNC is also issuing layoff notices.
Letters have been sent.
What’s up with that??
Time for a change at C N C
Maybe the new guy they hire will do the job for 100k instead of 200k. That should help them with the budget!
