The company grows too large and goes beyond its ability to grow and then downsizes? This happened to Apple Computers in the late 1990's until they joined with NeXT and changed the way they did things.

The Lawfirm I used to work at was getting that way. They closed down their Billings and St. Charles offices in the past two years. In 1998 they got investigated for fraud with casinos. I think I should have left in 1998 when I had a chance at getting a different job, but I was too kindhearted and gave them chance after chance to clean their act up. Downsizing without calling it downsizing, lawyerspeak whatever?
