First they blocked my promotion under a freeze. Then they did layoffs and got rid of people who I respected and had 10 years with the company. It seemed incredibly random.
I quit not long after that. Internal culture just immediately died, deadlines got stupid, everything turned into infighting for resources. From the people I know who stayed most have quit since then, it got incredibly toxic.
Nah unfortunately he was choosing people too, mostly folks he didn’t like. At one point he stood behind my desk and said, “We really need to make things more efficient here.” Then gave me a long stare with a smirk.
Sucks. I’ve been involved in situations where managers are literally in tears because they’re being forced to lay off people on their teams. Your guy sounds like a psychopath
I quit my job after they randomly fired a ton of key people at my company. When I quit for my new job my boss was like “but whyyyyy!?”

What sucks is your boss probably had nothing to do with the situation and is suffering just as much under increased workload. Fuck the C suite
