What are you worried about? Who cares if Sabre lays off a few dozen old farts who only know how the old stuff works. All that old stuff will be sunset in the next year or so when we rewrite everything as an NGP microservice anyway!

Oh wait...

Everything uses the old stuff still...

None of the new people have any idea how the old stuff worked so they cannot rewrite it as an NGP microservice?

Oops...

At least we replaced a few dozen $45/hour people with $9/hour people... that's good news right?

Here comes another P0 outage...

It's easy to release experienced people and reflect reduced expenses/headcount for the short term. It's very basic short-sighted and short-term math, and our CXX folks are good at it.

When there's a difficult issue or subtle bug - throwing lots of cheaper new resources is not going to cut it. So who get's screwed - the customer or the CXX person who's already collected their bonus for the previous Q?
