Downtown KC employer DST lays off employees, reportedly hundreds, months after sale
One of Kansas City's largest downtown employers reportedly laid off hundreds of employees Tuesday, a little more than two months after being acquired by a Connecticut-based competitor.

Typically happens after an acquisition. Disappointing for the laid off employees.

Pretty shitty not to give them any notice or comply with the WARN act. I don’t know who that company is, but **** those bastards.

Digital Systems Technology they stored at one time much of government records. They lease and or own many abandoned limestone quarries they converted to storage facilities for this purpose. I did a lot of work for them when they came on the scene. You had to have a very strict background check to get within eye site of that place.

I did a couple jobs in there and I already had my clearance because I also did some jobs at the FAA in Olathe. The FAA clearance took about 6 weeks to get. We had a special card in addition to our company ID.

I used to know a bunch of people that worked there. And they tried to get me on. Glad that I went in another direction. I think that many of them left a few years ago as well. Happy that they didn't get caught up in the fray also

You could be sitting on a year’s severance right now.

I knew someone who basically banked their severance and took a few weeks off before landing another job |
