Silent But Deadly
Don't you love it when people get 'let go' and the way the information is released spreads quietly like a noxious gas?
All of the remaining corporate slave monkeys whisper the news, send chats, and generally distribute the news at low levels, as if spreading news of a venereal disease outbreak in a rest home. Sick man, it's sick!
Another classic move is when people's names are removed from the employee directory before they even leave the organization or before their colleagues are notified of the 'organizational changes'. It's the subtle yet effective bitch-slap on the back as you exit.

I sort of like the technique where people are let go, but get to stay on payroll because the cost of litigation due to wrongful terminiation is more than the cost of keeping them on.
So, they are sent to Special Projects.... forever.

Yeah, the lovely methods of 'shaming' them out of the environment. My favorite latest example of this was when a long-time director had his position posted but he was not invited to apply, was then promptly move to a cube for a month and left in total limbo. He hung in there though...got a sweet exit package as a result.
