200 open positions
Gotta love corporate america.
Get fired for being loyal, & good at your job, earning raises through the years.
They are gonna hire 200 people who make half the money to do 300 people's jobs, who will then leave once the economy allows them to leverage all the experience they gained, and their open positions will be filled by experienced, expensive people who will be seen as a burden later.
Classic Corporate cannibalization of the workforce. Wanna know how wages stay the same yet companies make more and more?
This is it.

I could be misreading it, but I interpreted it as them doing away with those open positions along with the 300 active employees.
When there is a restructuring the open positions are often the ones that go first.
But you are correct that the remaining employees will have to pick up the duties of the released staff, usually for little or no more $.

The sentence is ambiguous. They are laying off 300 in addition to closing 200 open positions as I read it.
