Would this really cut costs though? They are basically moving from one office to another. They would have to hire new people to staff the new office, so I don't think it will be cheaper.

I'm under the impression that the Frankfurt office is already staffed. They're just making it the new HQ.

I hope those people can find new jobs soon but it'd be better if they didn't have to lose their jobs.
