Short articles like this make me wonder what’s really happening.  We don’t know the total number of staff in the company’s IT department so we cannot know what percentage of the entire staff was affected.  So I went online and found the following:

The cut positions included 85 people based at the company headquarters at 6000 American Parkway and its other Madison location, off Milwaukee Street, plus two people outside Madison. There are 850 people remaining in the company’s information services division, making the job reductions equal to about a 10 percent cut there.
