Guys who tank the company $3m People who spent their lives making the company what it was $0. Corrupt AF system
The government should intervene in situations like this.
Complete BS.
They do it because they can get away with it.
That’s capitalism after all. It is to be expected. We need a new system.
I get that these are retention bonuses and such.
I.e. the folks keeping their jobs get more money, while the folks losing their jobs get nothing.
Wth? How is it even legal to let someone go without paying severance? When I was let go, I had to be paid my severance (which was considerable) because that’s the law in Ontario.
From the article:
In bankruptcy and receivership cases, cash-strapped companies can opt not to pay severance, forcing laid-off workers to make claims as unsecured creditors — which will likely result in pennies on the dollar.
From the article:
Thanks for the hat tip.
which will likely result in pennies on the dollar.
Understand that this is the law right now. But laws can be changed. This absolutely should not be legal. These hardworking folks should not have to settle for “pennies on the dollar” when mgmt can still afford to pay out $3 mil of retention bonuses.
Yes. The laws can be fixed.
Workers should be at the front of the line legally dividing up company assets.
The job may be gone, but folks could at least drive home with a work truck or a set of office chairs.

That just sounds… weird in Canada.
It’s obviously socialist, and that’s a GOOD thing.
What? We aren’t socialist. We’re closer than the states but that’s like being the skinniest guy on the first episode of “the biggest loser.”
