They're backtracking now that they need workers back. Sure, there was some very short quarterly profit increase. But at what cost?

They'll be looking to hire back their workers at a lower salary no doubt.

50% of companies say 75% of layoffs weren’t 100% necessary.

Hiring back the people gonna cost money too...

We had people quit due to RTO... Obviously guy who can get WFH gonna do it... Also that guy is usually the talent on the team lol

They wanted to socialize his work, told them they need to hire somebody at that level and train them. I ain't getting paid enough for any of this lol
