My experience is different. Yes, when they want to hire you they say we’re all like a family.
When revenue drops, they say it again - stressing that we all need to pull together, which usually means something like fewer benefits, more hours for the same wage and deferred raises.
When revenue rises, there should - logically - be a speech where we, as a family, celebrate our wealth and share it with everyone. That never happens though.
we just grilled our bosses because they do a quarterly presentation about how well the company is doing, and then in May and September laid off 20% then 30% of the company for “financial” reasons.
I think they think that now AI is here we can all just do the work without people? But what that means is you just get unreconstructed verbatim AI output as a service.
More like “When the revenue doesn’t go up by as much as they want”
Ha ha! Fools!
Revenue hasn’t have to drop for corporations to do layoffs for years already!
Either this really isn’t viewable in the US or someone in the UK took a screenshot of the “not viewable” error.
hmmm it could be taken as a jab against capitalism which is terrorism now in the land of the fREe
i cant even see this (UK)
Censorship’s that bad? Do you have to provide your real ID?
Imgur completely disabled access from the UK because they didn’t want to deal with the OSA I believe
And some rather dimwitted people will still tell you that the OSA is a good law and is only about blocking porn.
The same people who use “the internet” as a synonym for facebook.com
Good.
“Content not viewable in your region”
What naughty adult content is this! Satan!
He still has trauma when they laid off half of his siblings.
Everyone always views families as the happy, wealthy, well to do, nuclear family that is happy, functioning, supportive, open and loving.
There are many types of families and many of them you don’t want to be part of … they can be abusive, manipulative, destructive, psychotic, chaotic and ugly.
Whenever a company says you are part of a family, it may not mean you are entering into a loving relationship with a group of supportive people … you may be entering into a dysfunctional family living within a cult like atmosphere that only ever wants blind obedience or else you will punished for insubordination to the leader of the family.
If a company is good, it feels like home. If a company is trash, it will stress that you should feel this way.
Oh, that beautiful corporate speech that is an insult to everybody’s intelligence.
Socialise losses, … forgot the other half
