It's just a way to do layoffs while trying to fight off the unemployment claims.

This should really be more strongly regulated, these constructive dismissal shenanigans are just assinine.

Nah, let's stick with zero employee protections, and prioritize ever increasing corporate profits at any cost. That's the best path forward for a prosperous society.

When you're doing professional services, having mediocre people means no repeat business. Unrelated, but my company is working with a 3rd party for the second half of an addition to a platform that dell professional services helped us set up.

Management doesn't care as long as line go up. Corporate America is constantly chasing short-term gains and damn the future.
