This environment has contributed to frequent layoffs, which are often sudden and unexpected. In a recent instance, a significant wave of layoffs occurred in India, affecting over 100 employees. Unfortunately, these decisions appeared to disregard the employees' skills, dedication, and valuable contributions to achieving the company's goals.
