Fucking dipshit MBAs pull that in every industry. My previous job they treated people like machinery that could be moved around, thrown away, hired, and replaced like nothing. They did this to specialized engineers with years of experience on our specific project. Layoffs, moving people to work they didn’t sign up for with no plan for moving them back, doing nothing to address ongoing attrition of the best engineers, not hiring new people, attempting to lowball new engineers when they finally did hire, nonsensical schedules based on hopes and dreams, the list goes on. I was the only person on my team when I left, a team the project literally couldn’t be completed without, and I took the last of the institutional knowledge with me. The c-suite probably don’t even realize how big a hole I left because my work wasn’t sexy or flashy, just making things actually fucking work. I hate to say it because one of my best friends still works there but I hope they fucking fail.
