This company and its new owners experienced an important lesson when they laid off all of their employees in a cruel and misguided power play. The issue was… When the time came to decide which employees they wanted to keep, no one had reapplied.
Reddit user u/alldogzzarebeautiful posted this topic to the r/antiwork subreddit. The thread is full of vigor and fury at the injustice that they suffered at the hands of the company's new owners. This is a tactic that companies loved to use when they had more leverage over employees during the long period following the 2008 financial crisis. Now, however, with unemployment low, there is no need for these employees to even reapply. This manipulative tactic has now turned into a gross miscalculation for the company.
Commenters are irate and letting their disdain for the company and their terrible practices be well known.
