Absio Corp in Denver, CO
A security startup that laid off 4 (of 12) employees the week before thanksgiving. This was in an effort to hire marketers for the product that was in part built by the 4 that were laid off.
They also took the Christmas bonuses and stock of those that were laid off and distributed them as incentive for the remaining employees to stay. There is a lot of political turmoil as far as I am told.

This is the worst, a straight stab in the back from the company - when they fire you after you built their company for them because they don't want to pay more salaries.
