Yeah, they should be firing low performers. A lay-off is when you lose business, with the prospects of being re-hired in an up-turn.

Certainly that should be part of it, but the goal is to reduce costs without reducing revenue. Low performers are certainly a cost, but there's only an indirect relationship between job performance rating and revenue.
