LANS Managers after the Transition to Triad?
It has been years now since the LANS for-profit contractor was removed from LANL. What happened to all the LANS managers popular and not so popular, after Triad took over LANL management? Did they stay more or less in their respective positions, given the boot, blend into the woodwork, or did they become born again Triad managers?

This might offer some insight as to what may happen to LLNS managers at LLNL when the for-profit LLNS is replaced with a non-profit contractor from the coming LLNL contract change.
Some LANS managers left and some stayed after Triad came in. A couple of trends, more of the unpopular managers left and more of the popular managers stayed. The other trend is that even of the unpopular who stayed they seemed to change their attitude for the better. This biggest thing that most people noticed is that the approach of the place changed. My guess is that of the managers that left most where part of the Bechtel bidding team, they liked the Bechtel mode the most and their mindsets did the best with Bechtel.
The same could be play out in LLNL but it is hard to say. At LANL it seemed like some managers just got really into the whole "we are for profit Wolf of Wallstreet" attitude. They are essentially say this to the people, in that if something is wrong, well "that is because we for profit now" if something was inefficient " that was because are we are private company", if did not get my bonus it was because of the workers, managers should paid 10 times more than workers because that is how it is in private business. The workers are all replaceable and should be rotated out for cheaper less skilled workforce like a factor because we are for profit now and so on.
