Dumping Scientists



Another company showing how little they care about their employees... Catering in a lunch just shows how they just want to manipulate the remaining employees in to believing they are safe.
 
I was very pleased to see the R&D group lunch the day after the reductions were announced.

It gave me an opportunity to connect with people from my department and from other R&D departments.
 
Way to show compassion to those that were let go!!!!! It's obvious you're life wasn't turned upside down.

Maybe you should learn to connect with others on your own instead of doing it at a free lunch given the day after a layoff!
 
The post about pleased to see people at the lunch seems like a fake post to get people upset. Thus it is best ignored.
There is never a perfect promise that cuts can't or won't occur again.

I wouldn't count on that post being fake. I worked with some insensitive people who were completely clueless about anyone else but themselves. Zero empathy for other workers except maybe a special friend or two.
 
Either way it is troubling but the way it is written gives me some pause. The reality that the ice berg shrunk on people and could always melt more down the road is real. That is the industry. Sadly.
 
Any way you look at it, the leadership was hoping to redefine the market; Fitbits, AG's, new sales strategies and incentives ad infinitum and forever justifying those newly proposed strategies as a way to avoid the obvious.

That being; they cant manage the simple process of selling a brand. They have no idea of how to do so and the new leadership justifies their associated existance via blaming all other factors for lack of sales.

In the end, all they had to do was stay with the sales team they had, and give them the tools they needed.

That, vs giving the king with no clothes (literally) his whims to create this fiasco.
