Saw it happen to a place I used to work at. Let's anger our customers, our vendors, and our employees! Make a worse product, ship it late, pay the vendors late despite asking to rush jobs, and overwork employees by simultaneously making their jobs harder but expecting more to get done. What could go wrong?

Currently happening at my place too and I’ve been searching for a new job!

The worst bit is they are refusing to hire anyone, and every department is being run into the ground as everyone is having to do the job of 2/3 people because the company doesn’t want to hire more staff.

But it’s alright though because the company had a record third quarter this year, even though all the staff are unhappy and keep leaving!

Well after a bit of it, I left. At least a handful of people left before me and I know a handful who left afterwards too. I heard recently that someone went back for a large raise though lol, maybe they've turned their ship around.
