Thread regarding Dell Inc. layoffs

Is there a point in layoffs?

We do have more people than we need. But beyond that I don’t see any strategy to job cuts, any long-term development plans, any purpose or design beyond just cost-cutting via layoffs. That may extend life, but it definitely sounds more like palliative care than attempts to recover and prosper.

Dell has always been a bottom line driven company. Surely this can’t be a shock. Even In the best of times, if they could cut, they would.

It’s a quarterly earnings driven Wall Street cycle of bullsh-t “money that isn’t even paper” shell game called stocks. That and vulture capitalism. Like how that company bought Red Lobster, jacked up rents on franchisees, forced them to use their inferior shiny for 10x the price, then turned around and made them sell unlimited shrimp for a pittance to sell more of their shrimp, ran Red lobster into bankruptcy, and then sold all the land. Granted it wasn’t a sustainable business plan. But they made a lot in a short amount of time. That’s what Dell is doing to its employees.
