> Since business is going exceptionally well, we have the luxury of conducting layoffs from a position of strength rather than necessity. Wall Street generally prefers companies that produce the same revenue with fewer employees, so we are removing 10% of the employees and setting the expectation that the remaining 90% will figure it out.
I don't consider myself to be pro-business, but... how is this controversial?

It reflects incredibly poorly on management, bordering on incompetence. If those 10% of employees were needed, then management obviously shouldn’t fire them just to make the stock price go up. If they weren’t actually needed, then management shouldn’t have hired them in the first place. If they’re only sorta needed, then that means management wasn’t able to come up with any ideas to grow the business.
Furthermore, regardless of what expectations are set, it’s not the remaining employees’ job to figure out how to do 111% of the work. That’s literally the job of management.

But people still work at these garbage companies.
I get that they need a job somewhere, but with this lack of respect, I’d be looking immediately.
I challenge a CEO to just post the translation instead of the garbage they usually spew.
Indeed. To be honest, the last two words of the translation alone really sum up the whole thing and would save everyone a lot of time and disrespectful, dishonest babbling.
Robin Hood you were supposed to take from the rich and give it to the poor!
This website is awesome.
Sounds like they're getting rid of a lot of middle-management? Proof is in the pudding I guess.
That said, the original isn't exactly inspiring or comforting. So long and thanks for all your hours, kinda.
