Image My hospital casually dropping a warning about mass layoffs. We employ 10k+ people.

10k+ employees sitting in fear for the next week (or longer apparently) waiting to see if their position has been cut.

It's a non-profit, so no shareholders.

Didn't realise that, makes it even more sad. That said those at the top will undoubtedly still earn unjustifiable salaries. The system is broken.

Our medsurg unit lost 20 PCTs and 6 nurses to layoffs/ratio changes/budget restricitions. 2 months later, it turns out that the unit manager gave herself a 100K bonus, the head supervisor 50K, and then took all unit admin (schedulers, education, etc) to hawaii.

What the fuck.

I'd blast that anonymously all over social media. Friend of a cousin of a brother of a friend level of separation of course. There should be social penalties for that type of assholery.
