Yes! I know all about it and all of the players! She personally hired and managed almost everyone on that team before she became a regional and would boast openly about how she LOVED each of the district members in different settings.
The folks that were let go had directly brought it to her attention that their current manager did illegal things and she pretended to give a shit but instead she cut them.
She and the powers that be even wanted to gut the team some more but I think that they finally realized that too many cuts would not look good.
Vanda obviously does not reward loyalty at all! And, they also encourage illegal activity because they kept that criminal manager around!
