- deburo 4mo agoI find it very that a big company ever gets this deep in layers of indirection, but at least they have the guts to restructure. The government rarely does.
- sharts 4mo agoIt seems silly to “restructure” and then “return to growth” though. Like, the restructuring is mainly an exercise of managing layers of pointers. Why don’t they ever move around the pointers and keep the people? Save the garbage cleaner process till the very end. Presumably people who cleared these interview processes are amongst the best and could easily re-train to fit different roles.
