This dumb myth needs to die, we're regards not stupid. Cutting fat means you *hired incompetent people, let them stay on and be a net loss for years* which is in both cases stupid, bad for shareholders and a sign of incompetence amongst the leadership.




Cutting 5% of the workforce is a major blow, that's worrying as fuck. Either MS are downsizing their product or litterary wasted billions on people who did nothing!



Secondly all those *that you want to keep, the real talent, are the first to leave*. The second MS talks about firing people the *best of the best roll for initiative and switch firm*. MS thus loses the competent ones and are stick with the losers who *won't as easily get another job*. This will hurt MS badly over the coming year

Have you worked for a major corporation? There is deadweight fking everywhere.  80/20 rule dude, this type of cut helps them be more efficient.
