Not sure what is the point of this anecdote. In any company of 7k people, regardless of how lean it's run, you'll definitely find at least one person in that situation. I think you're trying to say that Salesforce did the right thing to lay off 10% of its workforce, which would be quite insensitive in this context.
It wasn't "at least one" person - it was his whole org, everyone his manager managed, his director, etc.
I'm saying that if Salesforce has employees in this situation, they are making poor hiring decisions and it's no wonder they had a spare 10% of employees to lay off. I certainly am not glad anyone got laid off, but we wouldn't be in this position in the first place if Salesforce knew what they were doing.
