“As part of integration planning, and following an organizational needs assessment, we identified go-forward roles that will be required within the combined company.”
Totally devoid of any humanity.
Corporate jargon freaks me out. It shouldn’t, but it really gets to me.
I think it’s totally reasonable to be weirded out by corporate jargon. It’s so 1984 esque. It seems like it’s created to help capitalists do their best not to lie in legal terms while at the same time communicating to their shareholders that money matters while also still trying to put on a facade of humanity for the PR front.
It’s “polite” and therefore right. The angry people are the ones being unreasonable and are thus wrong. They instead should write a calm sounding letter, submit it to the media that is totally not owned by the same shareholders that wronged them. /s

It’s so gross.
It is jargon for sure, and bloviating to mask layoffs.
A merger will always have layoffs because there will be duplication of roles, especially in lower/middle management.
Some duplication may also occur in boots-on-the-ground roles, depending on the companies.
They’re masking it? Seems pretty plain to me.
Maybe only masking in terms of trying to somehow make it seem justified and as a natural part of their company’s growth. But you’re not wrong.

That’s capitalism. It’s a system that is devoid of humanity. Money is above everything, including human life.
the uncanny valley has made verbal inroads.
It sounds more like an AI-generated statement
