Do you think the company would give front line workers confidential company strategic plans? I'm sure they put out those "internal memos" with the knowledge and expectation that the information will most likely be passed on. Furthermore...did you sign a NDA? If not, then enough said.
Besides, this was released to the press shortly after you got this info, was it not (and again showing that the company doesn't expect it to remain secret...otherwise they'd give you the inside scoop MUCH further ahead of the public release)? So why the uproar?

If employees keep up this crap of releasing inside company memos, next thing you know they'll stop it and I'll find out from Bloomberg the news affecting my job. Just a little discretion would go a long way.

Or is it that you prefer to believe that the laws of finance and economics don't apply to VX, and that somehow you guys are just different?

Is VX hiring? What are there minimums?
Minimums were an ATP and 4000 total time, with 1000 of that as turbine time. PIC and SIC counts, so they are hiring FOs with zero TPIC.
