Survived my second layoff at this company in less than 2 years. Feeling bitter sweet.

When I joined there was about 50 people here and now there is a little more than 15.

I think the way this company has done the layoffs have been humiliating to the people getting laid off. The “higher ups” will request that everybody be in the office for a company-wide meeting around noon. Then at around 11am that day, they will individual take people into conference rooms and lay them off. By the time the company-wide meeting starts, they’ve laid off all the people they needed.

Why lay people off infront of the whole rest of the company? I don’t see any reason

    Max(wage/performance) s.t. do not eliminate completely any domain level knowledge from the company.

    Congrats, you're winning this optimization function. Good for your company. Doubtful if that's also good for you.

    don't explain with malice what can be explained with stupidity. They're just as lost as the rest of us, but they mask it with psychopathic confidence.
