My company called all lab staff "pandemic heroes" for coming in every day during the pandemic and taking on extra work to compensate for management and office staff who stayed home for years.

Then shortly after return to office, they closed the lab and laid off all lab staff.

Worst part is that they did it mostly to boost the IPI right before we went public by driving down operating costs.

We weren't even able to buy in u til 6 months after going public and the price leveled off at 6 months
