Thought redundancy was an HR thing?

VP of IT just announced the company is going to a smartphone app for employee communications.
They are dropping 500 F1 web only users email accounts. It will save $2000/mo. Plus they can decommision 30 computers that are Kiosks for these users to use.
Don't think $2000/mo is going to pay the programmer required to create and keep it up.

He did not say anything about the reason we setup those email accounts in the first place. To interact with company learning and scheduling vacations, etc. They just talkd about employee notifications.

All employees are going to be required to have a smart phone? Is acting like that is no big deal. They are expecting these 500 employees to shell out $100/mo including a phone so the company can save $4/mo?
And that does not include the cost of the phone app and integrating it with everything.
Get $55 /mo for my phone because use it for work. $55 was supposed to pay for it, but was based on an introductory account and did not include the price of the phone itself. The actual account went up to $77 after 6 months but what they pay did not.

On yeah, we are going to facial recognition instead of passwords too. And they can't currently get Single Sign-On to work.
