I meant "workers" in a broader way. Maybe even everything below the board. I have friends that were laid off (in the end) and the problems in their company were obvious to them. They did not even bother trying brining it up (hint: Never do!). Now a major consulting firm is trying to restructure the company. They have zero understanding of the business (niche) and based on his former perspective of the company many decisions are major major mistakes (e.g. they only see the profits that a business devision brings in but they don't see how many other divisions rely on that business devision to bring in their business). He had a genius idea (trust me) how to combine two different fields that could have started a complete new business division with basically close to zero start-up cost. He never bothered brining the idea up because "this company is too conservative to even consider this". So, a guy with a tremendous insight into the problems and possible solutions goes totally unnoticed. And this is just one example.
