To all the boys and girls at the farm!!!
You've been good all year, working your tails off so the TINOs can look good and get promoted. For your reward, TINOs had early Christmas gifts, layoffs for the unlucky right before Thanksgiving and fear for your job environment for survivors throughout the year. TINOs enjoyed many holiday cheers with another year of options vesting and looking forward to lots of bonuses for trimming the budget of non-TINOs, while throwing in a few bystanders to to conform to labor statistics.
TINOs look at layoffs like sport betting. Do what it takes to get the big pay day. So it will continue in 2023! because it's share price first, products and revenues are secondary and who knows where people rank.
TINOs need to get $$$ from somewhere to hire more BFF VPs and all scrum team members are pawns and expendable. TINOs know best on self preservation to fleece the coffer dry and will sacrifice bunch of pawns in a heartbeat despite all the speeches and crocodile tears. So beware, observe actions and results, and plan accordingly what's best for you.
