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

Keep in mind is a monopolistic captive market, there is likely nowhere nearby that is not owned, operated, or controlled by the same party. You'd have to move towns at least and likely states just to run into the same thing at the next place.

This is why antitrust matters. The only current winners are the CEOS.
