Someone wrote the company needs a turnaround specialist. UNFORTUNATELY, the company ended up with "reacharound specialists" because those new management came in to wipe out the revenue while the dog and pony show continues on for long enough to keep distractions at the forefront. "Hey, look over here, we have commercials!" "Look how diverse we are!" "Check out these serious company downsizing efforts while we plan for your departure!"
The field had to be a one-stop shop. Another round of layoffs at that level and all would be empty-handed because the field staff would (and should) jump ship after another layoff wave. No intelligent retail executive would ignite multiple nuclear bombs near the core of the business, which in this case is mostly rooted in field operations: storefront sales and management. BUT we're dealing with the best of the best so you never know!
