Greed by fucking over employees keeping more money from them. That's what this is about and all it usually ever is about when it comes to Capitalism and America.

Funny thing is that this will placate the masses even though he wasn't fired for the idea. He was only fired because it became public. They're probably super pissed that they'll have to wait a little while to institute the plan.

Definitely this, why the fuck would you paint a giant target over yourself in public by saying this outloud? Just him saying that probably cost them a lot of money

The average exec thinks this way. He was just saying what other execs were thinking. Generally execs arent stupid enough to write emails in this manner hence why people thought it was fake. But the sentiment shown is genuine

I love how the guy tries to spin it as a positive. "Remember, focus on being where our employees want to be!"

Yet, everyone reasonable hears him twirling his wine glass and monologuing "Excellent! They shall become desperate, and as they grow desperate, they shall come to us. And at last we can quench this wage rebellion!"

This reads so evil.

The complete detachment and downright glee and this opportunity... you can almost see the author licking his lips at the prospect of helpless paycheck-to-paycheck employees that are forced back into your job.

This was not written by a person; they've clearly lost all shreds of humanity.

I don't think he's quite saying what is being implied. Although what he is saying is pretty bad regardless. Sounds like he's saying if there's more people applying for jobs, they can pay less because of demand. But I don't think he's saying "let's lower everyone's wages"

I'll admit I assumed it was fake because of r/antiwork generally being nine parts fanfiction to one part reality.
