Large firms often decide on layoffs with many factors, but what caught the attention is the simplest one. An experienced employee revealed that layoffs are also done when you deny overtime for any reason. This might be unusual because most of the companies deny admitting this fact, and they show off like they treat employees as their family. A recent sensational Amazon layoff got attention when an investor called the Amazon strategy ‘show off.’ Another layoff trend is Deny Overtime And You Are Fired.

Deny Overtime And You Are Fired:

A female employee who had been working hard for years in a large company (MNC) was suddenly fired from her job. The reason given was “budget cut.” In the office, she always raised her voice for her rights and refused overtime, and perhaps this became her fault. “I saw him crying,” a colleague wrote on social media, adding to the heat of the matter. The question arises: is it a crime to expose oneself? This incident exposed the reality of the corporate world, where silence is sometimes more important than hard work.

A female employee working in a large company (MNC) was suddenly asked to quit her job. The company said it was due to a budget shortfall, but his colleagues were not convinced. People say that the real reason was not the lack of budget but the woman’s refusal to work overtime. A colleague wrote on social media, “I saw him crying. If there was a problem with the budget, why was he fired?”

A blow to the good image of the company

Another employee on Reddit expressed his concern about the incident. He said that his company was known for providing a good and comfortable working environment where many people have been working for years. But this sudden layoff surprised everyone. The female employee who was fired was always outspoken and refused to overwork. While the rest of the colleagues were willing to do overtime without saying anything. Now people are starting to wonder whether the company’s atmosphere is as good as before.

Why was only one employee fired?

After this post, many other employees also shared their opinion. One person wrote, “If budget cuts were the real reason, then why was only one employee fired? Did it not affect the salary of the other employees?” This raised the suspicion that the layoff was not done simply because the employee was not willing to work overtime.

Is politics necessary in a job?

Many people on Reddit advised that while working in any company, it is important to understand the politics there. One user wrote, “It’s sad, but it’s better to understand things in the office than to refuse directly.” Some people also said that it would not be right to make a decision by listening to only one side. Another user wrote, “Then Akshay went to work on his own story. Life is full of such things. We don’t know the real truth.” This incident has made everyone wonder if that woman was punished for refusing overtime or if it was really a case of budget cuts. The answer to this is not yet available, but the rest of the employees definitely got a lesson from this that it is important to be careful in the office.
