>Every time I read stuff like: "Over the past two years we’ve seen periods of dramatic growth. To match and fuel that growth, we hired for a different economic reality than the one we face today." I feel taken for a fool. Every damn body knew that the last 2 years were not representative of the future. Everybody knew that free-money, COVID and related phenomenons were a phase.

How are they taking you as a fool? The point of a company is not to maximize employment, it’s to maximize profit.

That means hiring up in growth periods, and downsizing in contractions.

That’s exactly what they said they have done.
