> Did they blame the people at the top for their new job and wages? Companies aren’t very upfront about over-hiring.

  It wasn't over-hiring given the environment at the time. It was over hiring given current environment. It seems clear that companies who took a more conservative approach to hiring have come out better for it. Not all companies could be so lucky. Some had activist investors who aggressively pushed for growth or else pushed out leaders. Messy world we live in.

    It was. It's naive to think that a boom economy will last forever.
