It Was More of a Slaughter
It Was More of a Slaughter For those riveted their seats on the imminent bl00d bath I mentioned in my previous entries, the day was Tuesday. As expected, marketing was all but wiped out, but were a ton of others got as well. The carnage was even greater than I expected and impacted engineering, finance, and a few others. I think the was around 20. Most were what I'd consider solid talent. Marketing was wiped, save one individual, has an engineering degree. We were replaced by engineering managers and the guy ran the test lab. Now, the sum total of marketing experience within the entire team is a whopping 2 years and 3 months. I've seen some of the new org and who's in various roles - it's downright nonsensical. The company's been on a path to failure for some time, but they clearly want to reach the destination NOW. The one who still pisses me off is a product manager who was previously confirmed to be safe by management. Yet, he got whacked too. Until Tuesday, I considered the senior leadership where I work (ed) to be inept, unprofessional, and incompetent. However, after pulling that move, they've crossed over into unethical slime balls. |

Anyone looking for an amazingly talented marketing guy? There would be cake involved.

If the company is on the fast track to failure, perhaps it's a good move that they pushed you out of the cart? But it still sucks....

It's hard to see it now, but, you may be better off not being affiliated with that mess. If the company fails, do you want your last place of employment to be a failed company where you were the marketing guy? The whole situation, all they way around, is just terrible.
