McKinsey adding value 😂😂😂

“Yeah John, after our spans and layers assessment we recommend doing a 2800 person RIF. Oh and we can offer them free subs and recommend they buy our products at the employee discount rate as a perk to not sue us while still increasing the top line.” - McKinsey EM. John response, “Brilliant guys. That’s why we pay you $5mm”

Ah yes, the McKinsey Way

I agree it’s salt in the wound but if they hadn’t gotten a free year people would be just as mad about that. “Cheap skates can’t even comp a year of my subscription after laying me off with no warning.” Can’t win either way.

This is just to add insult to injury situation. Are they giving just subscription or Pelaton equipment as well to kick it regularly 😉

Would love to know what genius thought this made logical sense. They literally have idiots in executive leadership if they thought this was a wise move. McKinsey, I love you, but this is a god awful recommendation, respectfully.
