The people making the decisions are usually much, much higher up, and only see those people as a number that can be cut. Our company has gotten lots of pressure from corporate on that, and they don't care how many people are needed to make things run smoothly, they just see our department as a number of employees that they can cut and cut until there's almost nothing left, and assume we'll still be able to perform all of our responsibilities and satisfy customers without issue. My boss has been fighting a losing battle against them for over a year over it, and we're down to less than 25% of our workforce and struggling to juggle everything now (and have had to severely reduce our support and development capabilities as well).
