>Usually the actual workers get fired, not the deadweight managers and support staff. You've never been in a large, rich, inefficient company with plenty of useless "actual workers" doing nothing all day? I have several friends at large companies barley doing one hour of work per day. And no, they're not 10x devs. The thing is, due to the great economy and infinetly abundant free money there was never any real reason for these companies to let go of the "actual workers" that were doing nothing so they kept on hiring regardless. Now they hired too much and the free money dried up, and so they need to cut the ballast loose before they sink.
