>>I had two options: cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out, or be honest about where we are and act on it now. I chose the latter.
Jesus.. why do CEOs and other executive members end up writing such useless language in their posts....! Essentially, both these points are the same if you look at the employees. However, the writing has to be bloated in such a way that there is something else involved here, which there is not. This is just drama.
Also, these decisions are not hard, regardless of whatever the hell has been claimed. They are actually easy decisions and choosing not to do layoffs is actually the hard decision. There is no need to sugarcoat so much.
> such useless language in their posts
"Your call is very important to us."
"We take security very seriously."
PR speak + copy/paste and now LLMs.
It's for the people who still work there.
It surely still does look stupid for the same people though..
Do they make sure new employees all remove the shift key from their company laptop or is that limited by band?

A lot of employees are really stupid, and will believe (or close their eyes to) all sorts of bullshit.
