Yeah, my experience is you don’t really want the people whose “productivity” goes up after a layoff. There are the people who don’t actually produce much, but are able to look like they do. Then there’s the people who used to provide the most value but are now dead inside. They are the one whose measurable productivity may go up, but the output is “wooden”, or maybe hollow, now. It lacks the creativity and big picture thinking that really moves the needle. So you may think you’re getting more output but it’s not impactful anymore.
