Re:Ask HN: How to announce your team that someone got fired? on Wednesday August 08, 2012 @11:47AM (#4356183)
Yeah, it can be part of the answer. We have different departments so instead of announcing to everyone, maybe keeping it in the dept instead of agency wide?

I think one of the issue is they don't hire good people and just want to get shits done quickly. Eventually it fires back and they fires them. The amount of work is also crazy.

There is no perfect company (and this one is not even close) but I am thinking that there is a better way to manage all that.

You know the difference just by the way they handle it that the person left in good terms. When someone is quitting and they announce it, the morale doesn't seem to be affected.
