The signs were there. The big boss cancelled his quarterly message. The next day he sent out an email to everyone confirming that retrenchments are going to happen during this festival season.
The day after that, I went back to office to submit my claims. I was then informed that people were being asked to go to into the HR office, and retrenched. Most of them worked in the company between 10 to 20+ years, and most of them thought they were safe. As such, there were a lot of emotions involved.
The worst part is, nobody knows if that is going to continue.
