As the Internet practitioners, I am afraid the last thing you want to hear is to be told that "you go to the financial settlement of this month's salary, tomorrow can not come." It must be like a bolt from the blue when you lose your job. But if you are faced with the downsizing of the company, I am afraid the mood will be more complicated. We will talk about the company's layoffs in the past, to see the helplessness and sadness.
Layoffs such as hill-fall foreign companies in China
With the advent of the Internet industry in recent years, the relatively traditional industry companies tend to be too bloated in the rapid wave of timely change, especially in multinational companies not only inefficient and even from profit slip to the loss. Faced with an awkward situation, these companies will come up with a surprisingly consistent improvement trick-layoffs, the name of the United States. Can be throttling also open source to match it, but this has nothing to do with the cut you. Even so many times this throttling is simply a violent flow of forced closing.
Just a few weeks ago, Sony Mobile exposed the news that it would lay off 95% of its jobs in China. According to Sony employees, the layoffs are under the onesony strategy of integration behavior, the purpose is to help Sony China and the scrap Sony Mobile (China), it seems that the adopted son (Sony Mobile predecessor, Ericsson) is not the status of the father of the iron. The layoffs were carried out in secret, and the employees were coerced into signing them on the spot with a compensation agreement. Small inside immediately feel this is very funny, to abolish 90% of the words then why not open, directly announced which lucky players "survive" just fine. But Sony this secretly make the panic, have no mind to go to work, because everyone worried that the next call will be himself. Layoffs news came the next day employees in the company downstairs to pull a banner protest, everyone overnight from "Sony Dafa Good" into "Sony Life Black." The company management, who felt the pressure, held a consultation meeting with the protest staff representatives on the day, and according to the latest news, the final plan is still under negotiation.
In fact, Sony's layoffs are relatively mild, but secretly engaged in a popular unrest. and Microsoft and Nokia this just broke up the "couples in trouble", this year's layoffs that is cruel to abandon the feeling of flesh and blood. Microsoft CEO Nadra announced the largest 18000-person global layoffs in history, with the vast majority of jobs involving Nokia's equipment and services sector, and China in the forefront. In the upcoming closure of the company's Nokia plant, research and development and production of two departments have different circumstances. Research and Development Department employees enjoy preferential separation compensation agreement, and Ali, millet and other domestic companies even a long time to loot these industry senior talent, but they still do what to play banner protest, is really in the blessing of not knowing blessing. Workers in the production sector are much more unhappy than their colleagues, and not only are the severance payments far below 5800 of the average, but they are hard to find a more satisfying new job because of some "stereotypes" about Nokia. Even some people on Weibo have to tease and taunt them, "only now think of looking for a job?" Sorry, * * There really is no such a good job! "What a inconstancy."
Seeing the familiar, the friends who left Motorola in the summer of 2012 will be impressed. An acquaintance at that time had left the old club for years in the layoffs, he said in a social network, "Something happened at home" and disappeared for a long time. Later in the small to see him is already the second year of spring, he also with several old colleagues started a new company. And Nokia's job cuts this year, Motorola's global layoffs were the first to take the Chinese region, the lightning-style opaque, sparked a strong protest involving staff, and everyone has accused Google of the stepmother heart too ruthless. At the scene of the protest at that time, because the movement is quite large even alarmed the police, reportedly because of the emotional excitement of the motorcycle employees nearly and the police clashed. There is a motorcycle veteran at that time expressed the helplessness of the heart: "Foreign companies, employing the first time to think of the Chinese staff; Even if you did, what about the director level? However, as the "Industry Whampoa Military Academy" out of people, motorcycle employees are still very popular, basically these recent rise of domestic mobile phone companies are not without the figure of motorcycle. And by Google sucked the essence-technology and patent of the motorcycle mobile, this year also was Lenovo acquisition, I hope the "pan-man" can give a scarred motorcycle to bring happiness.
The scenery here is not only good
In fact, in recent years, in addition to the plight of the industry's multinationals in China, there have been many domestic companies that have had to cut back. Especially in those fierce competition, homogeneity of serious areas, is often the Thousand regiment war, now only one person.
Friends, do you remember the 360 laps of Daming Lake that year? This 360 circle is actually not a dime relationship with Qihoo 360. The poor little guy, founded in June 2007, is positioned for the interactive, social-networking site tailored for fashionable Chinese youth--it seems to be aiming at a happy net. They have been losing money since their inception, and they have cut 70% of their employees by the end of February 2009, leaving only the market staff. Investors in the fourth quarter of the year to terminate the investment, it is said that the founders had already left, and finally they suffered until the end of the July 2 to close the site full dissolution of the end.
Said the sad urge Non-mainstream, small inside tell a everybody familiar with point of the company. Once is the video site leader in the 酷6网, in 2009 was a grand total purchase, can be the result of not only spirits but is declining by the opponents of the farther away. May 18, 2011, Cool 6 announced the reorganization of the sales department and lay off 20%. In the afternoon the company dismissed the Zhizhizhong, Zeng Xingye These two vice president of the post, layoffs means very tough. On the same night, a number of sales staff forwarded a video on Weibo-showing that human-resource employees beat the departing employee and caused a female employee to be injured in a job cut at a Shanghai branch.
A week later, cool 6 nearly 40 employees filed a complaint against the People's Department of the Haidian district to protest against violent layoffs. The final ruling was that the layoffs were ineffective and that 酷6网 needed to be rectified by May 30. The impact of the job cuts, cool 6 of the stock during the plunge, and left the staff also thoroughly and former club grace Broken righteousness, many onlookers also to cool 6 abhor said no longer use cool 6. Since then cool 6 became now this "half dead" cool 6, no longer able to support the "Grand Entertainment Empire". The reason, a master pointed out that cool 6 after the grand take over to move to the Xiba River side of the center, this building feng shui ...
Companies that have opted to lay off workers in China are generally smaller than those who have laid off their jobs because of problems, more directly--losses, losses or unwieldy. In addition to the above this is not well-known and famous for a pair of examples, such as Van, high friends, litters Regiment These once in the fierce competition in the company was badly beaten in the end is undoubtedly the choice of layoffs to seek regeneration. For the frequent layoffs, someone seems to have found the secret secret, only female friends oh, that is pregnancy-because once the job is pregnant, according to the law can get a minimum of 24 months salary +n+1 compensation. Small inside according to 15000 monthly salary 5 years of life to calculate, that is 450,000, milk powder money without husband earned!
A verbal war caused by layoffs
It is precisely because of the problems of mass layoffs, whether secret or public, that all companies do not want to be exposed before the scheme comes out. Once exposed in advance, in addition to the company's internal instability, a variety of subsequent negative information will make a broken wrist of the staff cut the effect of a large discount. Even sometimes the media is purely a figment of the game.
More famous is the 06 years of that Baidu "flash event"--Baidu enterprise software division of dozens of employees were notified on July 10 the same day to complete the separation procedures. The matter was soon exposed, many media rushed to report, which Sohu is the most active-they even openly to Baidu was sacked staff to recruit Bowen, secretly encouraged them to sue the former club. In the face of the provocative behavior of Sohu, Baidu also immediately responded to-they pointed out that Sohu not only incite employees to express extreme views, but also forged recordings of false evidence, Baidu vicious malign. And Sohu side also to color, said Baidu is to shift the view, they will not be withdrawn from the report will also strengthen the strength.
No one is right or wrong, but the party knows best. Small inside here want to point out is, at that time Sohu search has been in the number of Web pages with Baidu Flat, and in the query effect and talent reserves and technical strength are beginning to make Baidu feel great pressure. Therefore, why the adjustment of a Department of Baidu will be grabbed and can be imagined. Lenovo to this year's hammer technology in the face of a price crisis when someone released ROM team overall turnover, as well as Sina in chief editor Chen left after the door will be laid off ... These are finally proved to be pure rumors, it is obvious that the "friends" in the exaggeration, for fear of the other side of the matter is not big, even they even immediately search such children are not spared. Industry competition is so fierce, it is clear gun easy to hide arrow difficult to prevent AH.
Layoffs are actually a corporate change, but business managers should not only consider how to reduce costs through layoffs, leaving employees should still be treated as the wealth of enterprises. If just tough layoffs, so that some employees become the fuse of corporate image crisis, it is counterproductive. Because in the Web2.0 era, even without the help of the media, employees can "from the media" form to attack their former club, and even the ulterior motives of the people to use.
So, the reason for layoffs is actually the same thing as the relationship between men and women that I talked about yesterday. The cut staff and enterprise is like a marriage broken young couple, the moment of separation do not forget the past sweet feelings. Since the fate has been done, can not work together to the old, it is good to be good and scattered, good great
