An aspect of this I don't here mentioned is "back to work" initiatives being used to force people out, are executives this dumb? Your best people will leave and then you will lay off your worst copy-catting and you're stuck with the people that absolutley need the job but can't find a better job? Wow. The next time I look for a job, this is a huge factor for me. I avoided <certain big tech co.> and even adviced someone to turned down an offer there before they started this bullshit and I am so glad I did that. I mean I get the whole "it's a business, not a charity" thing but seeing people lose their jobs because some c-suite asshole hears about a trend and acts on a whim is scary stuff. Job loss affects people wose than divorce and even as much as death of a family member! What I really want is a list of companies that didn't participate in this. I would want those companies to turn me down first!
