Interesting to see “People could lose jobs” as a choice. The majority of our projects must have an ‘efficiency metric’ which is the open secret code word for staffing reductions. If the project didn’t reduce human labor it was rarely approved. Those impacted were always encouraged to apply for other internal roles but those slow to learn usually were too late to find something internally
