Cisco Announces Record Revenue And Mass Layoffs On Same Day

From Lawrence =?iso-8859-13?q?D=FFOliveiro?=@ldo@nz.invalid to comp.misc on Thu May 14 22:59:36 2026

From Newsgroup: comp.misc

In the same announcement in which the boss of Cisco boasted of
reaching new company revenue highs, he also said he was getting rid of
4,000 staff <https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2026/05/cisco-announces-record-revenue-and-4000-layoffs-in-the-same-day/>.

Tactfulness, much? Not just proclaiming the two on the same day, but
in *the same blog post*.
