I can’t believe Oracle has 10,000 employees to begin with. What the hell are they doing that even needs that many people to begin with?

Firing 30,000 of them. You can't fire people if you don't hire them in the first place. And as you all know stock price jumps after big layoffs.

  1. Layoff 30K people
  2. Stonk goes from $146.88 close yesterday to $145.25 close today after the layoffs.
  3. ??AI??
  4. Profit!

Yeah, just like the other comment: likely mostly lawyers, lobbyists and trolls of all colors.
