You facking facks , just found out in a meeting that I'm 1 of 150 getting made redundant next week , it's okay though you keep on eating everything in sight and spreading pandemics.

I agree mate but at the end of the day companies do not really give a fook about their employees.
You are a number written in pencil that is easy to rub out. I say this as someone who has worked for global multi nationals (mainly pharma) the last 24 years.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yeah they are. I know that from working in multi-national pharma companies too where I have been made redundant a few times.

I would definitely be challenging the company on this though. There is no reason why they could not furlough the impacted staff on 80% of their pay until the end of June and then re-structure then. It literally costs them nothing and would be the best thing to do for their staff.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Totally agree but as we both agreed they really dont care about their staff in the main.
We had similar discussions on the politics thread where we were trying to establish if we worked for the same company if memory serves me right.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't the company still have to pay taxes for the employee, so it does cost them something?

As far as I'm aware you and your employer both pay tax based on your earnings. I may be wrong.
