I was made aware there was a restructuring prior to my hire, however I did not realize how many people it impacted. Now that I've started the job it seems like a bigger deal than I realized. My direct report was one of the people who was laid off with 30 days notice. In those 30 days most (not sure if everyone) who were laid off were given a new job in the restructure. From my understanding the sales team was not rehired, and we now have a very small outside sales team. I realize that I could have potentially probed a bit more during the interview process regarding the restructure.
