My rule of thumb: invest 30% of the cost savings into training your people on skills you need now but also with a view to future plans. Invest in preparing your people for new ways like DevOps, microservices. With their experience and knowledge they can save you even more looking forward.
And even if you don’t need them all, by training them you give them a better chance when finding new jobs. A small investment can go a long way. Also helps your companies reputation when people don’t simply get removed.
