Chapter 598 Layoffs Arouse Negative Public Opinion

Brother Liu's interview went smoothly, and he easily won the offer based on his years of experience in the same female channel website Red Sleeve Tianxiang.

However, at the end of the interview, the interviewer told him sincerely that his age is close to the upper limit of an ordinary R&D position. If the technical assessment fails in half a year, he may still be fired. The interviewer suggested that he is working In order to work hard to learn technology to improve oneself, in addition to the function of internal competition and transfer, there are also related functional modules for learning and training employees' technical ability.

Brother Liu listened carefully to the interviewer’s suggestions. With this thrilling experience of being almost laid off, Brother Liu used to be used to ease and a bit of confusion. His mentality has gradually changed. At the same time, he seems to understand the implementation of the entire exchange. The intention of the company’s living water plan.

The running water does not rot, and the household pivot does not stalk.For a group as big as Huizhong, if all the employees in it are just a stagnant pool, it would be difficult for Huizhong to become the second largest technology company in the world by market value after Apple.

A week later, Liu Ge, who joined Jinjiang, was surprised and coincidentally discovered that the Liu Beibei he noticed on the Living Water Project app was actually in the same office as himself. Think of such a half-footed man with an annual salary of one million. The boss is a product manager, and Liu Ge is full of expectations for Jinjiang's future product experience.

Stories like Liu Ge are happening in many subsidiaries of Huizhong at the same time, and people like Liu Beibei who jump from the parent company of Huizhong are not a few.

"Unexpectedly, there are so many people who are willing to jump out of our parent company. Could it be that the attractiveness of our parent company has declined?" Looking at the personnel change report reported by the personnel department, Fang Zhe looked a little surprised to dominate all of this. Zheng Siwen.

"That's not the case. Compared to those who applied to jump outside, there were more people who applied for it. I think many employees who jumped out are not stupid. Many of them may find it difficult to rise to the parent company in a short time or encounter bottlenecks. It’s just this opportunity to go to the subsidiary to show off their skills."

Zheng Siwen, who had read the report, replied.

Fang Zhe nodded in agreement. In many cases, layoffs are dangerous for those who are laid off, but opportunities for those who remain. Compared with Huizhong's parent company, where there are elites everywhere, it is not easy to come forward. Uncertainty can really do a lot.

In my opinion, there is no problem in general. Our practice of retaining options for employees who transfer internally has released many employees. Whether in the parent company or the subsidiary, as long as it can contribute to the entire group, it is the same everywhere.

The personnel reform to implement the entire Huizhong Group has continued since February, and this reform has also allowed Huizhong's parent company to promote the active water plan to be implemented in every corner of the subsidiary and even the holding company.

This reform has reduced the number of employees who are overwhelmed by thousands of celebrities, fished in troubled waters, and messed up their lives. It has also increased the tension and mental state of many employees. Many employees like Liu Ge who were originally comfortable, recognize The importance of continuous learning. In this society, only those who continue to learn can maintain a strong competitiveness.

If before the personnel reform, the entire Huizhong Group was a fat man who was already a little bloated, then now, Huizhong has got rid of a lot of fat and has become a fighter with strong muscles again.

The personnel reform is a good thing for Huizhong as a whole, whose advantages outweigh its disadvantages, but the impact on society during the reform period has been turbulent.

At the beginning of March, Brother Liu was still adapting to the new working environment in Jinjiang. An article entitled "Huizhong Group's major layoffs. If you say good things are left with common suffering?Public account articles caused a lot of reading and reposting on platforms such as official account, Moments of Friends, and Weibo, detonating the entire network. Netizens expressed their opinions on Huizhong’s “personnel reform” with mixed praise and criticism.

The author of the article stated that one of his friends was originally an R&D engineer of the novel website Hongxiutianxiang.com, who was fired by the company for personnel reform a few days ago.

His friend has been working at Hongxiu Tianxiang.com for nearly three years, and his usual tasks have been done earnestly and actively. More than half a year ago, the company’s parent company Shengtian Literature was acquired by Huizhong and renamed Huiwen Group. Their company also It is logical to become a secondary subsidiary of Huizhong Group.

At that time, many colleagues were worried about the company's intention to leave, but they were persuaded and blocked by their superiors.

The superiors told him and his colleagues that the company is still developing according to the original model, and there is no need to worry about job stability, and after the company is acquired by Huizhong, both the salary system and the welfare system will be adjusted upwards, gradually integrating with the parent company, and even performing well. There is also a chance to get company options.

For this reason, the leader also specifically encourages everyone to work more overtime and work harder to share the joys and sorrows with the company.

Now more than half a year has passed. They have increased their overtime work, and they have worked hard. Huizhong has also been listed. But what about good salary adjustment, good options, good job stability?

This employee felt very chilling. Almost all of his departments were fired, and only a few "competent" colleagues kept their jobs through internal transfers.

Now he and his colleagues are almost hurriedly preparing resumes to find a job again. Although he received the N+1 compensation required by the law, he and many of his colleagues still feel deceived and bullied. Okay, share the joys and sorrows with the company. Now that we share the sorrows, where is the same joy?

In the middle of the article, many interviews with friends and colleagues of the author were interspersed and quoted, and there were even chat records of their leaders encouraging them to work overtime.

At the end of the article, a video was released. In the video, a man wearing a plaid shirt had mosaics on his face and was interviewed by the author.

Under the description of this man, his original company and even the entire Huizhong Group are worse than the infamous black brick kiln. Not only did they force them to work overtime at 996, they even called the employees at two or three in the middle of the night to change. bug.

On the official account, the number of views of the original text has exceeded 1 million+, and the comments below the article have more than tens of thousands of likes.

"This kind of company is really chilling, allowing employees to take their lives for money."

"The world's richest man is also the world's largest slave owner!"

"Capitalists like Fang Zhe should be pulled out and shot!"

"I was called to fix the bug at two or three in the middle of the night, and I felt the same for both programmers."

"What is "ability", isn't it just being flattering if it is related?"

"The author friend should be fortunate to take this opportunity to leave this garbage company."

"One world, one leader, one pie."

In the entire comment area, almost all of them sympathized with the author and friends, and there were even many people who were also fired by the company for various reasons.A very small number of comments that agree with Huizhong’s approach are either scolded by many people or made invisible by the author.

From the official account, to the circle of friends, to the hot search on Weibo, the popularity of this article has risen all the way.

The headlines, Sina Technology, Beijing News and other news media have also begun to write related news under the headings of "Huizhong's substantial layoffs" and "Departed employees complaining that Huizhong can only share hardships with joy" and so on. .
