There is a study out stating that those employees that survive layoffs are considered ‘victims’. They are victims because they are still employed and they have to do more work than they had to do before —- to make up for the work that has to be done by those that were let go.
Nothing was said about the mental state of those unfortunate people that were laid off. The study was on how bad those that survived the layoffs had it. I wish the study would have gone into detail about how the company leadership is handling the situation – are they increasing communications? are they more visible to the employees? are they hiding away in their offices, afraid of the minions?
It certainly is a different perspective than what I had ….
It isn’t what was said, it’s how they explained it.
