Things that don't make sense in 2023 Microsoft: - Can afford Activision for $70,000,000,000 - Can afford ChatGPT for $10,000,000,000 - Can't afford PTO payout and converts to unlimited PTO - Can't afford 10,000 workers Amazon: - Wants to be the "Earth's Best Employer" - Wants to "Hire and Develop the Best" - 60 days severance - No stock vest - Leaves behind 18,000 workers I can't be the only one who sees a disconnect. #misc #layoffs
Corporations gonna corporation
Pst, these workers are fat and the company could be leaner. Either their skills don’t have the value that was promised or they are low performers. Either way, i think they could get away with another 20k. Sorry, truth hurts…welcome to business.
👆 can confirm. We could easily find 20k more. 2-3 years ago we had like 40k fewer employees than we do now.
Wow! "These workers", "low performers" Really?? It could have been you. Why do you want to brand someone who got laid off as low performer?
you will never understand unless you were a ceo

People are forgetting the real motivation behind layoff, it is to extract maximum values from the people left behind. That’s the whole reason Amazon has URA. If companies really care about employees they can easily continue to keep them. At least the profitable once’s like MSFT and AMZN.
That's called business. They do what's in best interest of them NOT US Now pay your goddamn blind tax
When they converted PTO to the nonsense unlimited model, they needed to pay what was accrued. So you don’t lose anything there
Greedy corporations need stonk prices to go up and up. Fuck you and your family.
They're not laying off because they can't afford, they're laying off because they profit more without them. They're not running a charity.
💯
No one asked them to run a charity. Why hire more when not needed and fire in the name of profit
