Layoffs are not seen as mismanaging your workforce by investors. They're generally seen as a gamble that didn't pay off. Especially with tech companies, taking gambles is a good thing, investors want to see that management is taking risks.
Yes, but I am not obliged to entertain this fantasy.
Do you have a choice?
If you work for a big corporation, that seems to be the norm. Only choice out being self-dependent.
Though sometimes the gamble _is_ the layoff (see Twitter atm)
Twitter's layoffs are because Elon Musk has no idea how to manage a company, not because of actual business or market pressures

A gamble? But who’s paying off the “gambling loss” during a layoff? Because it’s certainly not the person making the bet.
holding up people's wages to get the company through a bump or two would be another bold gamble and a savvy business move until it was made illegal (luckily for all of us non-sociopaths)
