Everyone who has reported experiencing stress at work has been fired.

Everyone who has reported having a really easy time of it has been retained.

Incidentally, the amount of work getting done at our company has plummeted.

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey 66 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Also incidently everyone remaining is extremely stressed about feeling stressed and getting laid off. Good luck, yall.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil 31 points 2 days ago

No no no. They're not stress. Nobody is admitting to being stress.

They are, however, much more active on LinkedIn job posting all of a sudden.

[–] MrNesser 118 points 2 days ago (8 children)

WTF i'm really hoping this is fake

[–] [email protected] 108 points 2 days ago (2 children)

A quick search returning several news articles suggests it's real. Pretty gross.

[–] anamethatisnt 91 points 2 days ago (5 children)

All the articles I've visited just write about the image in the OP and state that they haven't verified the claims, f.e:
However, India Today could not independently verify the authenticity of the viral screenshot of the email.

Also interesting to how at least one reposter seem to be a digital marketer.
"Shitiz Dogra, Associate Director of Digital Marketing at IndiGo"

I wouldn't be surprised if this is all fake and meant to spread the company name.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It could very well be a PR stunt but the content in the OP is "real" in the sense that it matches what's being reported and isn't photoshopped or something.

[–] anamethatisnt 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Right, I'm not accusing OP of faking his content. I'm stating the possibility of the original poster from linkedin spreading a lie for the sake of publicity.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Very possible, arguably even probable.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Most certainly is fake.

[–] db2 2 points 2 days ago

That can't possibly be a real name.

[–] slaacaa 1 points 2 days ago

Not that this wouldn’t happen, but for me the screenshot looks a bit edited (though I’m just viewing on my phone): look at the clarity of the text in the email, then at the signature and logo. Might be that somebody just swapped out the text in an image editor.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago

India? The HR teams here are worse than cartels. Heartless.

[–] AA5B 21 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

I don’t think it’s that easy to “effective immediately “. I know my company managed problem employees out over months. Employees in India are much better protected than in the US.

https://www.rippling.com/blog/labor-employment-law-in-india

India doesn’t recognize at-will employment

Barring cases of severe misconduct, you generally can’t dismiss an employee in India without notice or paying the employee out. Employers need reasonable cause to involuntarily dismiss employees, which includes willful insubordination, theft, fraud, extensive unexcused absences, and disorderly conduct on company property

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

And filing a case because you were illegally fired could take decades

Yes madam ( Notion online solutions Pvt Ltd.) is a customer focused tech platform, which aims to disrupt every service sector and provide complete transparency in each and every services on our platform with the help of technology .

It went from bad to worse there in the ass. Sorry, end.

At least they are all coming.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago

In a relationship it's important to make sure everyone comes

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

I’m assuming that it was one of those anonymous surveys…who ever believed that they’re anonymous?

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey 39 points 2 days ago

I like that "fostering a healthy and supportive work environment" translated to "CULL THE WEAK!"

[–] CitizenKong 7 points 2 days ago

The beatings will continue until morale improves!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago

Companies value liars who compete for the best readily made fake speech. Nothing new to see here.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Pretty sure this is the plot of a dystopian Doctor Who episode. Two actually, thinking about it.

There’s a disappointing lack of IT Crowd references in this thread

[–] betahack 11 points 2 days ago

are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? are you sure? ............

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Thank you for your service

[–] [email protected] 34 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Wouldn't happen in the US. Instead they'd change the workload of the employees that were most problematic based on the survey to the point where they weren't doing a good job anymore, and then let them go due to inability to perform.

All healthcare, including mental well being, should be separate from a job because of this.

Capitalism baby! Cut the weak. It's not us, it's you.

Fucked up.

[–] DiploRaucous 8 points 2 days ago

Imagine if they kept just one of the people who reported feeling stressed... How stressed do you think they'd be after seeing this?

That'll give them perspective! Next time they won't feel so stressed out 😀

(This was all written very tongue in cheek. I am not a serious person.)

[–] HowManyNimons 12 points 2 days ago

In the interests of maintaining a healthy population, we have increased our investment in hospitals. Every doctor has a new gun and will shoot you if you're sick.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 days ago (2 children)

This is what happens if you don't allow slavers to carry a whip.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

They pick up a different whip.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

They find a way, one way or another, they find a way.

Every interaction you have with a large employer is to their benefit, don't forget it. You are not a part of the broader consideration, as a human, beyond what you cost and what you can produce.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

I'm going to pop this balloon, but I'm not going to tell you when! Does this stress you out Jen?!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Sounds like their leadership team could use a few adjustments.

[–] 3ntranced 1 points 2 days ago

Hopefully nobody takes the recent news headlines in NYC as a call to action to make these adjustments. That'd be unthinkable despicable. /s

[–] Korne127 7 points 2 days ago

Maybe committed to destroy a healthy work environment, e.g. a work environment in which employees can be open about how they feel and don’t need to fake being happy?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

yes madam 🥴
