Comment on Layoffs every 2 years
Mataresian@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 days agoOut of curiosity, for the first one. Would it have been possible to use that dirt on your boss to stay at the company? Of course I can imagine you just don’t want to work for a company where you’d have to do such things in order to stay with the company in the first place.

The place was a toxic cesspool at the time. An investment group had purchased 7 different companies and forced merged them in the space of 3 years and went on a massive hiring spree. The company I started with was 350 people. The company I left was over 4,000 people
It was an illegal layoff that I could taken them to court over. However the in-house lawyer knew what was going on and made them give me one hell of a severance package to stop me from suing them. I basically got everything I reasonably would have gotten if I sued.
That ended up being the most profitable year of my life.
My boss ended up CEO for a few years. It didn’t go well.
