Lets put this into semi-real numbers. Lets say across the board, 14K folks just woke up to no longer having a job. That really su-ks, I've been there that first morning of when you normally would be on the way to your place of employment but you no longer have to. Well, no longer get to.
Lets say the medium salary was 70K. Maybe thats too low. But its a number. Lets round it to 6K per month, per employee. $84,000,000 in salary per month not counting the added FICA on top of it. For a company, thats alot of money to longer have to pay out each month, each year. From an investors POV, thats a good thing. From an ex-employee, not so good.
