CenITex sacks 200: Read the internal email
news As you might have read, yesterday Victorian IT shared services agency CenITex told its staff that it was planning a round of 200 redundancies. Thanks to a source, we’ve gotten our hands on the internal document outlining the changes. You can read CenITex chief executive Michael Vanderheide’s message to staff on the cuts below.
We’re not surprised by the fact that these kinds of cuts are happening at CenITex. You can find some more background on the issues which the agency is suffering here. There is also some information here on what Vanderheide is referring to when he says “Efficient Technology Services”. In our opinion, this is just more evidence that Australia’s IT shared services paradigm is dead and should be eliminated, at least when it comes to state governments.
