		<description>The Hacker Group has been laying off people silently as well. They pay with a very strange program called PFP that pays a huge, variable bonus once quarterly that accounts for 50 percent of their employees salary. They make the numbers to coporate &#039;first&#039; then pay the employees with the scraps.. The top brass is also grossly over compensated compared to the average worker. They really abuse the system and their employees loyalty.</description>

		<description>Big Fish Games has been laying off people silently as they make new hires - a hire and fire strategy.  Keeps &quot;bad press&quot; under the radar and a steady flow of job applicants to a company with overstated revenues.</description>
