If you're gonna lay people off, a "layer" of management is probably the right call. Never understood why I do actual work and then multiple layers of management report that work up a needlessly abstracted hierarchy of managers until the CIO knows what's going on.

Until the CIO gets the "telephone game" version of what's going on.
