Thread regarding University of Michigan/Ann Arbor layoffs

U of MI - 50K employees and no layoffs

This should be an example to private employers. Treat workers right.

You do not need to lay off every six months to prove the point - you are just fine with the current employee loads.

@OP This can't be sustained. Federal funding is going down and the university will have to cut at some point, like other universities are doing. There is a lot of 'bloat" at the university. It has 8,189 faculty and lecturers and 32,356 staff, a 1:4 ratio (obp.umich.edu/wp-content/uploads/pubdata/factsfigures/facstaffsumm_umaa.pdf). If this keeps being put off, the dam will eventually burst. Just wonder how much of this is being done quietly.
