1. Put Things Into Perspective
Companies and human resources departments do not fire people because they feel like it. Downsizing and job cutbacks are often used by companies to recover from downturns, and to remain competitive. Firing is almost always a last-ditch measure used by a company to remain profitable. Companies will resort to many other means before firing people, including:
Pay cuts. Some companies would rather hold on to their present number of employees and remain productive, but they have to pay them a lower salary. Companies may also need to cut back on benefits that are not required by law.
Spending cuts. Perks like parties, free-flowing coffee, and free snacks are the first things to go when the company is not doing too well.
Loans. Most companies usually take out loans and financial plans to stay afloat. The money acquired from loans are almost always used to pay for employee salaries.
Remember that firing is almost always a last resort. As much as you hate the feeling of getting fired, companies don’t like the feeling either. In time, you’ll realize that firing people is almost certainly not personal, but is strictly a business matter.
1. 用長遠眼光看事情
公司和人力資源部門不會裁員因為他們也不喜歡這樣。公司從衰退期恢復時經常會采用縮小公司規模削減公司雇員的辦法,這樣也是為了保持競爭力。裁員總是公司用于保持盈利而采取的最后一種辦法。在裁員之前公司會采取許多其他的辦法來挽救,包括減薪,一些公司寧愿保留他們現有的工作人員的人數并生產,但他們不得不降低薪水,公司可能也會減少一些法律沒有規定的福利。削減開支,當公司運營的不好的時候,一些福利會被削減,聚餐,免費的咖啡和零食首當其沖。貸款,大多數的公司通常會貸款來維持運營。得到的貸款大多數用于支付員工的薪水。
記住裁員通常是公司最后用的辦法,你不喜歡被裁掉的感覺,公司也不喜歡。你要明白裁員不是針對個人,嚴格來說它是公司事件。
