The term furloughs implies these are temporary but they are actually layoffs.

I am sooo sorry I hurt your feelings. Not. Don’t like what’s written on the internet? Don’t read it & move on.

It's how they say they predicted the next recession. If you say vague things like that every time anything happens, you will always be the guy who predicted it

Yup. As they say economists have predicted 9 of the last 5 recessions!

Periodic elimination of corporate cube dwellers can be good for an organization just like pruning a tree helps it thrive. We have some dead weight that needs to go.

They could benefit by eliminating FAR more than this at the GO. Not only do they have too many middle managers, they have dozens of the "family" that do absolutely nothing but actively work against the pilot group.
