My old firm announced yet more compulsory redundancies today, two of the staff N and K whos privacy I will protect by not naming them directly. Were in effect given the push, everybody was feeling that in the air anyway. But this firm is seriously cutting back. I wonder if it was a blessing in disguise in to be let away sooner rather than later as the fear and uncertainty which arises is stressful at the best of times.
I've had a theory that firings happen now and again to scare the staff into compliance, though I wonder if this will turn into a cascade? A prior work place had a cascade occur where in a period of 6 months there was a turn over of 100% of the staff.
