No, the reason is
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitality_curve https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitality_curve
> The vitality model of former General Electric chairman and CEO Jack Welch has been described as a "20-70-10" system. The "top 20" percent of the workforce is most productive, and 70% (the "vital 70") work adequately. The other 10% ("bottom 10") are nonproducers and should be fired.
10% layoff means you are being ranked.
- pcurve 4y agoA head of large company once said, "I can cut the bottom 10%, but I don't. Because new 10% will be formed to take place"
- 29athrowaway 4y agoWhen employees realize they are being ranked, they will hire the most mediocre people possible, so that their ranking relative to other employees goes up. This is how Ballmer almost killed Microsoft.
- ilyt 4y agoYeah, just cut 1% at a time so they don't notice
