It makes sense for company to layoff overpaid employees & hire similar skilled employee at lower salary.. Isn't it?

Can they not tell their employees to take pay cuts? Why to layoff them?

(1) Reduce cost of human capital -> (2) Post better EBITDA numbers in earnings calls -> (3) Get big bonuses and sell your equity if its value is rising -> (4) Hire a lot of people again so that you can repeat this cycle again to profit

Reduce salaries by firing overpaid employees and hiring similarly skilled cheaper employees 2. Less salary expense means company has more net profits 3. More net profits means that the company’s share price will rise, and the top management (CEOs, etc) usually are also given company stocks along with salary - hence they can sell the stocks and make more money
