These companies have been a mess since COVID too, Microsoft is laying off thousands every year to cut back, then rehiring thousands every year, Microsoft actually didn't decrease in employee count from 2023-2024 and in fact have more employees in 2025 than they did in 2023-2024. It's a constant cycle of laying off thousands, hiring thousands, laying off thousands, and it will continue for years, there doesn't seem to be any end goal except a non-stop chain of firing/hiring. These companies don't give a fuck about the humans being treated like shit all of this because these companies fucked up and over hired during COVID and now seemingly can't get in a stable position and have to keep firing to increase stock price. |
So they layoff thousands to hire thousands. How does that make any sense? I get not everyone can do every job, but why not shift as many as possible to other roles you want to expand?! |
- Layoff thousands to boost the share-price.
- Rehire thousands because they need them.
- Layoff thousands to boost the share-price.
These layoffs are always carefully timed for the end of quarters or start of fiscal years.
They're just using their employees as pawns on a chess board to please the billionaire shareholders and playing with peoples livelihoods.
