TL;DR : if they are they are, if they aren't they will find out
What would 'find out' look like? Companies don't function in a vacuum, pulling the consequences any particular good or bad executive decision from the background noise is an exercise in divination by chicken entrails.
find out could look like a multitude of things most definitely. But that is my point, there will be a thread here of all kinds of hours wasted people typing up what a divination might look like. I've seen layoffs work out great and work out terrible, who's to know? Where I work we can easily see an 80% reduction without flinching. Their CEO says they are more efficient, he'd know more than me.. but we will see, time is always the ultimate truth teller
