What is a good solution to deal with under performers from your perspective ?

- Keep them ? Let them suck and just be compassionate. They have stomachs to feed.

- Let them go over time, one by one. Can create a very fearful atmosphere where there is a sword hanging over anyone who can be let go for any definition of "under performance".

- Let them go at once, within a x% range, which probably gets decided based on a ton of things. But at least it is not slowly degrading the morale day by day. The downside is that if this a regular periodic thing, it can create a fiercely competitive and insecure environment in the company.
