DLA restructuring to dramatically scale back Gulf presence

DLA's assertion that they're assisting redundant staff to "manage" their transition makes me smile - they refuse to pay the statutory minimum in severance settlements (including repatriation costs) and are taking advantage of vulnerable people (many of whom have families). The ME practice is in a state of collapse - there's been no work for practically a year, there are rumors of licenses being revoked and the firm is seeking to sub-lease much of its UAE office space. Their situation will come as no surprise to anyone who has dealt with the ME practice .
