It’s a common practice to leave positions open but not fill them as it saves company middle management money. Personnel are the highest drain on company money second only to inventory. You ever wonder why don’t they hire more people whenever there’s a job that’s understaffed, that’s because it’s a lot cheaper to pay one person overtime then pay two people for regular hours.
We are entering interesting times, middle management is historically who gets cut whenever companies have massive layoffs. That’s because middle management is a redundant layer of bureaucracy. They are the ones who get the salary but don’t do any of the actual work. They’re just there to make sure you do your work. And they cost a lot. Upper management can sometimes justify themselves because they make big decisions. Or at least they claim to. But middle management doesn’t have that excuse.
So what you have happening now is a lot of middle management people are being fired and their responsibilities are being put onto the entry level workers or AI. Now there’s two possible outcomes to this. The more likely outcome is we get a very small percentage of extremely competent and self-directed workers who can handle all this new responsibility and the entire workforce becomes just them. The second outcome is we get a very large percentage of incompetent workers who can’t handle the new responsibility and everything just collapses.
It’s going to be interesting to see which one happens.
