And the worst part is they will then brag about how low their opex is to the employees that are still there in the quarterly all-hands, as if it isn't representing how much money they are making but not paying to employees. Well, ok, the worst part is the doing rather than the bragging, but still.

Idk, I'm starting to think that the shamelessness of bragging to your employees that you're fucking them over is worse. At the very least, the employees should feel insulted that they're supposed to be excited about it.
