Is that before or after you learn that the typical severance for the people in question was less than a week's pay?

So when it was "your turn", you're going to get tossed in the street with NOTHING to tide you over to your next gig.

Still feel like letting your family starve for the sake of "loyalty"?

Which people?

I don’t have or want a family. And it’s not about loyalty to the company it’s about the other people working under me.

I have savings so I can afford to be unemployed, but still don’t understand your hypothetical.

(No offense, but this is about as non-hypothetical as it can get. This was my reality in the recent past)
