Companies wouldn't exist without their employees. They put in the hard work, the ideas, the sweat and tears to make the company successful.

You know what.. It depends. Sometimes, short-term measures might be necessary, but ideally, companies should find ways to minimize the impact on employees. Long-term, strategic mistakes can have a domino effect, hurting everyone.

Absolutely not. Employees shouldn't bear the brunt of bad company decisions. When company Makes Mistakes it leads to Aggressive expansion, financial strain and Employees Suffer (Layoffs, increased workload, stress).
