> Being hugely profitable doesn't make it worth keeping more people than you need, just as having losses doesn't make it worth firing people you do need.
I understand this is the thinking that runs the economy, and it's very much a shame. With 12k unneeded people you think the work they were doing disappears? No, the people still there (that brought in records profits) now get to shoulder that work.
Do you think all 12k of those people were the worst or maybe some were older and more experiences, being paid better than a recent college grad? It's just pure greed and the people there should be pissed off at the CEO and the board.
