When the layoffs start, it will also be because of the employees.

I mean, have they not started? Pretty sure I lost my job earlier this week in a mass tech layoff, more to come next week.

The kicker is we saw the bad decision coming, we told them, we protested with all we had. They admitted that is was their fault, but now need layoffs.

100% of the executive team was kept on board, the.CEO saying that they have been punished enough with the stock price. So yeah, doesn't matter who is to blame and if you caught them red handed, it would still be your fault. Theyre laughing at us.

Yes because making less profit is the same as losing your entire income.

A lot of people are paid a decent part of their comp through stocks too, they almost double my salary over the 4 year vesting period.
