In order to prevent his position from being threatened, these leaders will use the opportunity of reform to drive him away. After working in this company for a long time, Tong also said that he is a very capable and capable old employee, but old employees may not meet good employees, and good employees may be the most annoying people for leaders.
In fact, if we really want to carry out reform, then the whole legal department should be laid off collectively, which makes sense. But in the end, he was the only one who was laid off. He thought he could be promoted after the merger, but a great hero suddenly became an abandoned child. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that his superior is selfish. Because of his seniority, his qualifications in the company can be said to be comparable to those of their superiors.
In this case, if you give him a promotion, it will be difficult to keep your position in the future. Don't give him a promotion, for fear that everyone will have opinions. It is better to take this opportunity to suppress him and let him out directly than to let him pose a great threat to himself after taking the upper position.
