    The first people to leave aren’t going to be the clock punchers, it will be the best and brightest who can easily find other jobs.

    Yes. But some of them are also the most expensive ones, so when they leave costs go down. And you “numbers must go up” (=cost must go down).

      So you’re left with departments full of clock punchers who don’t have vision or leadership. If you want to kill your Golden Goose, that’s a good way to do it. The remaining departments full of drone followers aren’t going to be making you the exciting groundbreaking products that make you money.

      Of course then again I personally see value in employees, maybe business leadership does not or thinks they are all generic replaceable.
