Surely. (Too many) firings have a negative impact on morale. Especially if not done once. I think the point being made though is that it is very uncomfortable to fire people, so managers tend to avoid it, even if it's the right thing to do.
- scarface74 9y agoThat was the problem at Yahoo. It's better to have one mass layoff and be done with it instead of having multiple small layoffs.
- ralfd 9y agoYahoo had a hundred other problems.
- MBCook 9y agoIve been at a company with multiple rounds of small layoffs. Each time they didn’t want to cut too deep or thought ‘maybe this will be enough’. It wasn’t. It was a total moral DISASTER. If you need to cut, cut. But multiple layoffs will kill you.
