Description

Jack Kelly and Rick Chen react to Intel's decision to cut the pay of the CEO, leadership team and middle management by 5% to 25% after its layoffs. We look into what might be the catalyst for these decisions and why high-profile pay cuts like Apple's Tim Cook might not be anything more than a PR play. Notably, Jack explores how job-cut announcements affect the stock market and the job market. Finally, Jack and Rick discuss the history of company reductions in force and why layoffs might be the worst thing a company can do.
