To be honest, if the product IS making money then they tend to cut anyway. The general idea is to cut until things break. Some directors try to make their cut numbers by handing the cuts down to their underlings in the fashion the see the will cause the least disruption. Others are lazy or more likely don't want to deal with having to directly pick names and will just do a "peanut butter" spread so the percentage is handed to everybody below them in an even fashion.
Don't forget, the managers are staring at a list of names and have to pick good people to c-ap on. The slugs are long gone, the volunteers don't cover the number. I've been told it's the most awful feeling they've ever had to deal with to have to choose.
