Chapter 1210
Liam got the message and went to visit him in the morning.
The colleague wasn’t a local. His parents were on their way, and his wife, big with child, was waiting outside the ward
When she saw people from the company coming to visit, she started blaming Liam.
The company was understaffed, so why couldn’t they hire more? Was it reasonable to work overtime until the wee hours for half a month straight?
Liam didn’t retort and allowed her to continue venting
Others may not know, but Owen knew.
When Liam first joined the company, the team was bigger than it was now. But at first, the business he was handling didn’t bring much profit to the
company
The R&D department required the most investment. High–level talents had high salaries. The company couldn’t see profits, only investments, and naturally, they weren’t happy. The main shareholders opposed together and ended up cutting down almost half of his staff
Later, these projects started making money Liam wanted to hire new people, but they did everything they could to stop him.
They thought that if he could generate such high profits with so few people, then there was no need to hire more. After all, the essence of capitalists was to squeeze surplus value as much as possible to get
the highest return with the least investment
Over the years, the team had added many people, but for the growing scale, the manpower still seemned very low, and Liam was always negotiating with the top management, whether it was hiring new people or income distribution
However, his power was limited, and the suggestions he made several times were all rejected by the board of directors
Over the years, Liam had been cultivating his own connections in secret. Now hall of the company were his supporters. As a rising star, he caught up with Clyde in a few years, which was quite an achievement.
Just a little more time, and Quantum would be his.
However, Liam was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. How could he feel okay after this incident where his own people had suffered because of the great workload?
That’s why that situation occurred in the meeting today
Owen thought his boss was good in every way except that he was too soft–hearted.
If it were him, he probably wouldn’t confront the board at such a time for the sake of one employee.
He thought he should choose to endure, wait for the opportunity, and then carry out overall reforms
But he couldn’t say Liam was wrong. As an employee, having a boss who cared about employees‘ rights would make him follow him loyally.
Clyde frowned. “Liam, don’t forget, your team was also supported by the company! Now that your project is looking up, you’re in a hurry to dump us; isn’t
that a bit heartless?”
As soon as Clyde spoke, people echoed, “Liam, we earnestly invested money in your research and development project, so what’s going on now? Business has ups and downs, do you not know this?”
“When Quantum was in its most difficult time, we still fully supported it with our money. When there was no money, everyone was harmonious. Now that money is being made, this is happening?”
“He thinks we old people are useless and is eager to kick us out”
“We are all one company and should share both the good times and the bad.”
