Wouldn't be surprised if it was to make sure the experienced and mission critical people stick around, instead of jumping off a sinking ship. Downsizing can lead to a panic where you lose the people you vitally need.

Yeah, at this point we're hitting a level of nuance that would require more information than I have. There was also the surprise budget cut somewhere along the way.

Right. A company that can lose 800 employees doesn't consider a few million to be that big a deal. Especially if it helps secure future income. Which is kinda the point of the whole thing.
