The Catch Behind This Week’s Round of Layoffs

Uber, Volkswagen and WPP all cut deeper this week, and the people who stayed were asked for more hours or more work, not more pay. Plus new data showing over half of laid-off workers don't believe the AI explanation for their own redundancy.

This week on Paper Cut:

- Uber's layoffs and the managers left holding a bigger workload

- Why over half of laid-off workers suspect AI is a cover story, and the university staff walking out over it

- What the data says actually keeps people, versus what most retention budgets fund

- Germany and consulting firms asking for more hours and office time, without paying more for either
