The "Do more with less" thing is usually an indicator a company is on track to become Nothing.
- johntopia 2y agoCompletely disagree. There have been plenty of orgs achieving things looking somewhat impossible, and they're called startups.
- xingped 2y agoThe difference being startups start that way. The parent appears to be talking about established companies downsizing and expecting the remaining employees to shoulder extra work. The stock market may tend to temporarily love it, but more realistically it's usually an indicator of bad leadership or a downward turn or both for a company.
- srockets 2y ago"Do more with less" is an admission that the current costs aren't sustained by the income generated, and that the executives have no idea how to fix that. I wish that this simple truth would be mentioned more often, so less executives would make fools of themselves by saying such nonsense in public.
