"owning" the decision doesn't mean anything. It's just words.

One day there will be a CEO who actually pays the severances out of their own compensation.

  • So, like Nintendo and other Japanese and Chinese companies where the CEO of a company treats the company like their child and takes the hit when they make errors?

    Or maybe like the US employer that gave everyone at the company a flat wage?

Agree materially no consequences but still better than many deflection strategies we have seen from others during layoffs.

It is but those words could be long flowery corpo speak or short.

“Yall gonna get money and most yall fired. My bad woops”
