Our company just laid off the User Education manager and one tech writer in order to downsize the tech pubs group and start a new one in India. A once proud tech pubs group with a manager, three full-time tech writers, a part time editor, full-time curriculum developer, and two full-time contractors is now down to just three full-time tech writers.

Is this the wave of the future? Are others seeing the same happen at their places of employmet?
