> I mean, once people finish the work that needs to be done, and if there isn't any more work to be done... those people get let go

Except , companies tend to hire and fire rather periodically which is a huge waste in terms of "lead time" (it takes an employee x months to be productive) not to mention demoralizing to employees. The alternative seems to be to have better planning or a decent enough roadmap rather than cater to the whims of Wall St ?
