Maybe, but this is in stark contrast to the courage of Pixar's bosses in saving their employees that recently was on the front page. Easy to be cynical about life in BigCorp and the vicissitudes of your bosses, but doesn't make it any less wrong to treat people who trust you this way.

I think it's a telling contrast when compared against the success of the respective companies.

It can also be a rational decision. If you believe the layoffs being imposed on you will cripple the company, it's better to leave the failure to your successor.
