    I think they are mostly doing this as a stealth layoff. It’s been a pretty popular strategy lately.

      The joke is, you get the good people to leave first this way. Be it estate or layoff, it’s a bad move either way.

      So why do they do it still? Only thing i can think of is the powerplay. CEO types are sometimes as developed as a child, mentally.

        Also Andy Jassey does not look like he is able to effectively groom himself, so that tracks.

        Because from you run a mega corp, you don’t care about talent. You need complaint slaves!

      Yeah and this whole agenda of RTO rolled out worldwide directly after Davos 2023 when a bunch of CEOs were tweeting about it from there. But noticing this makes you a conspiracy theorist.
