Cruel ways to save money

From what we're gathering it seems both low performers and high performers are being laid off. Many of them also seem to be a few months or days away from being vested. Pretty cruel way to save money and stick it to the individual worker.

Cost saving

I wonder how many of you people laid off gave the recommendation to cut salaries by 10 or 15 percent? No mention of the 22 million another 'employee' makes per year. Or the millions that other employees make each year. Or maybe it was the removal of... — read more

I survived but it was really hard coming in this morning.

A lot of people I consider friends got cut yesterday and I think it's shameful the way we were all treated. For those of you who still don't know, I'm sorry. This was just handled so poorly that I'm ashamed to admit I'm still employed.
