They only laid off some people in their small american subsidiary.
China's ByteDance has 110,000+ employees.
This article says only about 20 people got laid off. It's honestly not even worth mentioning. Who cares?
I'm sure the CCP doesn't want to pay any American salaries that aren't absolutely necessary.
You have a point.
Anyways
HR is allegedly supposed to deal with employees. They laid off PR, thus less employees. Less employees mean less HR needed. HR gets laid off, means less employees.
HR and PR are worthless and are not needed to keep a company going. They can be fired and replaced, nothing technical or core is lost.
If HR and PR is absolutely necessary for a company, they honestly should consist of people who are ideologically loyal and nothing else.
HR is supposedly for micromanagement of employees, while competent company leadership theoretically do not need PR as they are paying attention to everything.
HR and PR depts are 99.999% woketards anyways.
