Longtime SUSE staff asked if they'd opt for 'voluntary separation'
Participation is completely voluntary for both employees and the organization, with no predefined targets. Employees in Prague unionized earlier this year, forming the SUSE Workers Union. The new union is part of the Czech ICT Union, which also organizes a group of Microsoft staff in the country.
