Thread regarding Medtronic Inc. layoffs

Any good stories?

About teams that canned people without knowing what they actually do, and now they are pointing fingers at each other?

Good story:
Once upon a time during the Riff day at CRDM in building MVC, bunch of actual Bodyguards was deployed against few scientist & R&D engineers. What shame, nobody reacted, team took their severances and left quietly.
Days later, finance bltch$ who prepared the riff plan & recommended getting bodyguards herself was booted. She went banana & made lots of noises, I guess she needed bodyguards more than people wh--e actually doing the work.
Most of them were recruited back, of course it cost a lot, but who’s counting.

From earlier layoffs (reorg) they now are hiring for those positions that they were truly unaware of what that person did and realized, wait, oh man, we needed that person... well, we'll just hire someone younger with less experience at X$ less than the person we fired.... This company is toxic.

Yep, I have been reached out to ~15 times in the past 2 weeks. It's really getting into my WARN vacation relaxation time.
