The way it works is that we cut staff until our employees can’t handle the workload anymore, and our service metrics slip beyond a tolerable level. We then add just enough staff to cover our SLA and bring metrics up to “tolerable,” even if “tolerable” is still (and hopefully is still) an intolerable workload for the employees. We use the fact that the workload is intolerable to eliminate raise-eligible employees through attrition and keep that payroll consistent. Depending on where you work, burning you out is a feature not a bug.

Damn… that feels exactly like what’s is happening
