    It’s been proven time and time again that treating your employees correctly and paying them what they’re worth is far more productive. It’s just sociopathy.

      Yeah, but that’s thinking long-term. CEOs of publicly traded companies don’t give a shit about anything other than making the line go up during their own employment at the company.

      Cutting 10% of the workforce is profit right in the pocket of the shareholders, as long as the company can somewhat continue to go on.

      They don’t give a fuck about productivity, but they will dangle that over your head for whatever reason they deem advantageous.

      You want a raise? Bummer, productivity is lower than expected, so we have no budget for that.
