The corporate double-speak is exhausting. They talk about 'strategic alignment' and 'efficiency,' but it’s just a nice way to say they are padding the bottom line at the expense of people’s livelihoods. I’ve been through enough of these reorgs to know that the empty promises about growth are just a distraction. If you’re already looking, don't look back. It’s clear that leadership views us as nothing more than line items on a spreadsheet, and the environment is only going to get more toxic as they dump twice the work on half the staff.
I’m sorry you’re going through this. The whiplash between the 'we are a family' speeches and the massive layoffs is exactly why nobody trusts management anymore. When they say they are 'streamlining,' it usually means they are sacrificing the core of the company to satisfy shareholders. Don't feel guilty for dusting off your resume—it’s not loyalty if they aren’t loyal to you. Focus on your own exit strategy because trying to carry the workload of three people for the same salary is a trap that leads straight to burnout.
