Just because your chairman said how to rebuild world economy it does mean that it apply to MetricStream. Rebuilding metricstream economy is completely different than rebuilding world economy. Your products doesn't work for metricstream to rebuild economy that's why you fired employees so many times. Hold on may be your chairman intention is to tell world how to fire employees to rebuild economy. Start building new product and name it as use and throw employee management.
Many companies are firing employees and metricstream is not exceptional so try to be get out before metricstream throw you. By the time they open offices you will have only half strength. Remember how worst your managers and VPs performance their positions always safe. If you don't trust them look at old data. Lower level employees are always targets so be first to quit. Note that recently metricstream terminated some employees who had lower ratings, why no manager or VP in that list? Are they really performing well? So think about it, never wait thinking that you will not be included in the termination list.
