Comment on Ask HN: Could layoffs be companies firing deadweight?

"it is a great excuse to lay off the low performers"

It is a great excuse to get rid anyone who disagreed with corporate changes or mangage to anger anyone in the management chain. Most big companies just put you on 'special' projects, then if you don't get the hint to leave, bundle you into the layoff pool.

Ooooh sadly I’ve seen this too many times too
