I mean, there's a department in most companies called "human *resources*" to give away that employees are still resources, just human ones.

Far too many Harvard MBAs calling the shots, I guess?
stack ranking came up in another thread a few days ago and this practice of forced attrition seems like just another way to do the same thing.
I thought it was understood that this kind of structure just incentivizes internecine fighting and politics over and above any imagined positive effects.
Mind-boggling that there still exists upper management that thinks otherwise.
I mean, early Amazon must have hired a lot of ex-Microsofties with stack-ranking PTSD, being based in the same area. You would think they would know better.
It seems like the more employees you have under you, the less you see them as human beings instead of inputs and outputs into a Rube Goldbergian machine you are trying to keep running.
