How does upper management let these people go? Maybe that's why the LANG is going down the drain.

let's see...not paying them fairly, no hope of advancement, a bankrupt company financially and in management talent, no vision, no hope in winning, taken advantage of, and a much longer list if I had the time. good people go because of opportunity. lang management doesn't have a say. good talent gets fed up and moves where opportunity calls.
