A few months after our company got acquired the new HR rep came to our city for a pep talk. The highlights of which included:

  • We're trying to jack up the value of this company as fast as possible at the expense of all of you
  • If you like the idea of job security this isn't the company for you

Those weren't her exact words, of course, but that's what everyone took away from it. I had already given notice at this point.

Been through that. Frantic home staging for quick resale. Meaningless kpi's on every wall( so colorful tough) and Gambia walk where the suits get to pretend they care about your opinion once a month.

Good guy HR rep affirming what everyone is thinking and giving the green light to leave.
