Silent Reduction In Force “RIF”

I am aware of a “volunteer” RIF but this didn’t go out to all employees. I am sure, they would be overwhelmed with “volunteers”

Engineering RIF’d a whole North America team

First and last passages kind of sum up PE ... "debt gymnastics" .. is genius, PE in 2 words ? pip pip

Private equity sometimes gets “a bad rap” and generally makes its returns by growing businesses rather than via “financial engineering”, opined Andrew Higginson, then chair of the supermarket chain Morrisons, when his board agreed to sell to the buyout firm Clayton Dubilier & Rice for £7bn in 2021. Really?

The buyouts were old-fashioned games of leverage and debt gymnastics, just as they looked on day one.

when the rubber hits the road and there are only 2 of them left and the whole edifice of crony capatalist private equity BS is seen for what it is as just another Gordon Gekko asset stripping , blood su-king con whereby those who can't do su-k the life out of those who do. On a lighter note guess its just the american way which in so many ways is not one the the rest of the world should follow. Think fat little kids with g-ns ?
