From friends that are still employed, the feedback received from the remaining staff has Kinney on high alert. The weekly Town Halls are focused on giving the speakers a “warmer” presentation but they continue struggling to connect with the hourly employees.
Survived another week, what a sad place to be at, the stress of the unknown is close to intolerable.
And don’t call this a growth opportunity!
To the people who were part of the layoffs. While it was painful and probably life changing to many, you now have the opportunity to move forward with your lives. Use the severance pay to plan for the next stage of your work life.
