There’s hardly anything we can get done. You can only cut so much before you’re no longer viable. If leadership doesn’t come up with a smarter strategy than just letting people go, we’re going to hit a breaking point—everything will eventually fall apart.

No one gives flying squirrel about this sh---y place, leave as soon as you can unless you are a lifer!
Well, I suppose if you don't actually drive decisions down and empower the engineering and production management levels as a proper modern company would then what happens is all the decisions including trivial day to day ones are driven all the way up and placed on the VP desk. Part of it is not following any sort of of documented business process properly resulting in paralysis and chaos. Winging it becomes a daily chore of navigating a chaos storm. So then VP's get burnout flying all over the world and running every decision in the department and factory. So, yeah in this scheme you need a lot of VP's. LMAO. I'll just chill out unburdened by any decision authority and quiet quit and keep my decision analysis skills to myself until asked. Works for me.
At least they can continue to afford all these Director and VP positions that keep getting posted
I’ll say it again. Quiet quit. Work 40 hours and unplug. Make sure to take long vacations with nobody to do the work. If you step up and work 70 hrs a week and never take any then that’s what they want. Cause a problem. But be very nice about it.
In fact, some team’s business is not important at all. You may need to ask yourself, is my job can be replaced by AI? Without my contribution, does the business can still continue? When the company can still make hdd after cutting your team for 75%, it is surprising to me why the company keeping your team.
My team was cut by 75% recently, leaving only one person. The thing is they are cutting off the arms of the company, the people who do the actual work, leaving plenty of management on board? WTF? They are getting ready to pull the trigger on something. So sad.
Quiet Quit. It’s that simple
