Why is it a blunder? Do you think only poor CEOs face downturns or overhire?
And if a company hires too many people for a few years and then right-sizes, isn’t that better for the economy overall than if they simply stayed small the whole time? They still paid salaries for those years and added to the overall level of employment.
Do you want a system where CEOs are hesitant to hire? Or where they’re afraid to right-size the workforce and instead run the whole company out of business?
There’s literally zero logic to your position, just feelings and Monday morning quarterbacking.
