Are they really going to give out Maxim Awards to people they’re going to fire a few months later? Didn’t they give out maxim awards to the team that pumped the market full of retro shoes? Didn’t they give maxim awards to the team that started wellness week and now it’s gone? Who gives these things away?

It's bread and circuses for the peasants to keep us "entertained" and not thinking too much about the pending layoffs. Business as usual everyone, please keep working harder than ever before and pretend like this all matters even though you are very likely to be eliminated at some point over the next three years. The corporate theater must continue.
I just wonder how long the company can continue to create such a demoralizing work environment and it not producing a self-sustaining doom loop. I would assume the company still needs employees to do work but it's not exactly motivating with a layoff threat constantly hanging over your head. I realize no employer these days provides job security but there is a delta between some level of knowledge that you'll likely be employed in the future vs. total ambiguity. This too of course is part of the plan. Attrition through resignation saves a lot of money.
@ap Nah, you misread it. it's COVID 2027
To the slow people, go reread EH’s email.

I propose the Minums Awards, Celebrate people who only do the absolute mininum in their jobs
maxim awards are based on race. if you're black you're almost guaranteed to get one

@OP , …”to people they’re going to fire a few months later?” Months? I thought layoffs are starting this week. Why wait?
