Are employers trying to “artificially” reduce demand for workers? /u/diwayth_fyr CSCQ protests reddit

This might sound a bit conspiratorial, but I’ve heard many anecdotal cases where a large portion of staff was fired and their workload was shuffled onto the remaining employees. A tale as old as time, but I don’t think this is sustainable: unrealistic deadlines will be blown, overworked employees will burn out. Eventually those aggressive staff cuts will have to be walked back somewhat.

Is it just me sniffing copium, or is market over-correcting when it comes to downsizing?
