I am absolutely positive one hand DOES have a clue what the other hand is doing. Beyond the core leadership involved, though, everyone has a different idea, including everyone here. Gossip is what mostly has gone around on here regarding hiring numbers.
I am confident some one makes the decision and communicates it. But it is not communicated widely, so gossip, guesses, and conjecture fills the void for everyone else.
It would be nice if the people making the decisions were to send an official announcement out with hiring numbers, even if it has to change later in the year. Then people could point to it. Whether they believed it would be another story, but at least there would be an announcement out there.
