AUA: Can Layoffs Really Reduce Bureaucracy?

Mon Feb 02 2026

Listen

While many organizations claim they’re cutting red tape, the underlying drivers often look more like cost pressure, market correction, or AI anxiety dressed up as structural reform. In this mini episode, Rodney and Sam unpack the recent wave of layoffs framed as efforts to “reduce bureaucracy”—and why that explanation deserves some skepticism. They explore when reducing org depth can be the right move, why boom-and-bust hiring cycles create hidden work, and what companies would actually do differently if bureaucracy reduction were the real goal. Mentioned references: layoffs at Amazon layoffs in consulting layoffs at UPS "org debt" Got a work question like this one you'd like us to answer?
