Heights of house cleaning

Most companies refer to firing people as ‘house cleaning’. But Citi group has taken it to a completely new level. This article here mentions that they are going to fire (believe it or not)… Office cleaners!!!

I am not sure about the authenticity of the article, but if it is true, then it is darned funny! :) So, they have the money to pay incentives to their executives, but cannot afford to keep their office cleaners!!! If true, then I am sure there must be some logic behind this decision… Just that it is a little difficult to find one now… Will update this post when I find the logic… :)

Bravo!

  4. Hahaha… Welcome to my blog Anjana.

    While they made a clean sweep of the firing process, they most definitely did make a clean sweep of applying logic to decision making as well. Leading from the front. :D
