After being a public company for quite a while, a private investment firm has purchased us. Unfortunately, they do not have any experience running a similar company, but still, being private should help.

I participated in a focus group where we were asked a bunch of questions which could be summarized by the two below: 1) Why is Softchoice's reputation in the industry so poor that no one seems to want to work here?. 2) Why do people who do work at Softchoice, not want to work here as evidenced by the high turnover rates which include many of our most talented employees? Hint - the answers to both of these questions are related. It has gotten so bad that they have recently upgraded the bounty and will now pay us $3,000 if we can convince any of our friends to take a job offer from Softchoice. There are some regulations around how long the new employee will have to stay in order to get the payment, which limits the potential of the payout. It would be tough for me to do that to a friend, unless they were really desperate for a job, even with the high compensation. If you are reading this, and you are unemployeed without any other offers, please apply for some of the job opportunities that are currently posted. You have a good chance of getting accepted.
