The 'precision' math isn't adding up

Does anyone actually believe the 'operational efficiency' narrative anymore? We’re seeing record turnover and now another massive layoff of 530 folks in Washington. It’s a classic downward spiral: you cut staff to make the quarterly margins look pretty, service quality craters, customers leave, and then you have to lay off even more people to cover the revenue hole. It’s not genius management; it’s a death march. I’ve been reading the rumors about the theft issues spiking after the last few rounds of cuts, and frankly, I’m not shocked. You pull enough boots off the ground, and of course, the security posture falls apart. It’s terrifying to think about the long-term viability of the network if this keeps up. Is there any department that isn't currently under a hiring freeze or a RIF threat? If you have an exit strategy, you’re already ahead of the curve.
