Have you ever had to do these? 10 back to back layoffs is a rough day. I had to do 5 in one day once and had to seek out a very expensive hangover.

Sucks for everyone. I’ve been laid off by email, it’s fine.

maybe doing something wrong should be emotionally painful for managers and HR staff.

Not all layoffs are “wrong”; we maybe kept 200 people employed for a year or two longer than we would have by restructuring and laying off 20-30.

Net positive in my book. Of course on an individual level it sucks, these are people with dependants and so on, but so are the 200 who were saved.
