You have been here for a long time. You have been unbelievably loyal. But frick YOU. You make too much money. You're fired. And we get a tax break for doing it. frick ESPN.

so which one is it?

fire the older employees who get a better severance package - get criticized

fire the younger employees who get a shitty severance package - get criticized

i guess the answer is NEVER HIRE ANYONE THAT WAY YOU DONT HAVE TO EVER FIRE ANYONE

I hate how these over-paid older people are preventing young people from doing the same job for half the price. Unions often prevent that.

I wonder if the fired employees were offered a pay cut in order to stay employed

thats a terrible business practice.
you offer the employee a pay cut - the employee begrudgingly accepts and immediately starts looking for a new job anyway. the company is better off just firing them to begin with.

besides how many peoples salaries do you have to cut before you make up for one complete firing? 3? 4?

You know what else is a shitty business practice?

Laying off hundreds of loyal employees because YOU paid them too much money.
