From Cannon Fodder to Sweeping Across Thousands of Stars

Chapter 455 Who Touched Whose Cake?

If we go back to the time when the Atlas Group officially decoupled from the Rubion Galaxy, except for Franklin and a few other rational young government employees, no one would have thought that the situation would evolve so rapidly that it could not be resolved.

Including the civilians of the Rubion Galaxy, especially those working in Atlas Holdings, they did not expect that the life that seemed to be getting better and better would soon be broken.

After all, from their perspective, it was just the replacement of the "Atlas Group", a company that they had little contact with on weekdays, and the company that took over did not lay off employees, so such "big news" did not seem to affect ordinary people like themselves.

It was for this reason that when the Atlas Group was forced to decouple from the Rubion Galaxy, although the discussion among the people was very hot, no one stood up to speak for the Atlas Group.

The Rubion Galaxy Autonomous Government took advantage of this and said that Atlas was "unpopular" in the Rubion Galaxy and was not loved by the local civilians, so it was better to leave as soon as possible to avoid further trouble in the future.

This situation can be said to have angered the Atlas representatives who participated in the negotiations, as well as a group of employees who participated in the post-war reconstruction of the Rubion Galaxy.

At the subsequent review and summary meeting, many people even complained directly to Amber, saying that the Rubion Galaxy, from the autonomous government to the civilians, was a group of "ungrateful people" and that all the infrastructure should have been dismantled before leaving.

Amber could only smile and comfort everyone, telling them not to worry, and at the same time said that if Atlas could win the hearts and minds of the people now, then there would be no need for their autonomous government.

And he felt that there was no problem with the lack of public support, because their interests had not been affected at this time, so they did not need to stand up and speak for Atlas.

"Don't worry, wait and see, maybe the situation will be different? Their interests are not affected now, but it doesn't mean they won't be affected in the future, right?

You guys still think those local companies are too 'kind'. Believe me, they will never let us down in terms of 'not being human'."

Amber looked around at the people attending the meeting and said seriously: "Don't worry, the autonomous government of the Rubion Galaxy and local companies will never let us down!"

His prediction or deduction of the future is not exaggerated, and it is even a bit conservative.

Although Amber has always believed that Atlas is just playing the role of a normal company, doing what it should do, and not fussing about some things related to the distribution of internal interests.

That's all.

But unfortunately, in the competition, the Atlas Group will basically be at the bottom of the current forces for a long time.——

As the local consortiums and enterprises in the Rubion Galaxy have completed the 'takeover' work one after another, the former 'Atlas system' enterprises, various factories, automated farms, hydroponic towers and other industries under them have actually been running stably for a period of time.

But after the 2-week "adaptation period" or "newbie protection period" ended, various problems began to be exposed one after another.

The first thing to bear the brunt is the huge difference between the current "Atlas-style" organizational structure and the traditional enterprise structure, which brings about efficiency problems.

The so-called "Atlas-style" organizational structure actually refers to the special structure in which the administrative clerks and middle-level management are reduced to almost nothing in the Atlas Group and its industries, branches and subsidiaries.

This is not a secret. All companies that have been paying attention to Atlas know it very well, and they also know that Atlas can do this without affecting efficiency. It relies on a certain high-intelligence "enterprise management system" they have.

So when the acquisition negotiations were conducted at that time, many companies, including the Rubion Galaxy Autonomous Government, expressed their willingness to purchase this "enterprise management system".

However, after the Atlas representatives who participated in the negotiations told them directly that this was not for sale, they gave up the idea.

Many local enterprises and consortiums also thought it didn't matter whether they bought it or not. After all, the 'enterprise management system' was not a rare thing. Slightly larger enterprises were using similar systems, so at most they just had to let the technical department make the switch.

But what happened later told them that they still thought the system was too simple.

Obviously, there is an essential difference between the ordinary 'enterprise management system' and the system used by Atlas, which is highly dependent on Lilith.

Or it is not the same thing at all.

This directly led to a significant decline in the overall efficiency of these enterprises after switching the system. Some companies with relatively complex industrial structures could not even maintain normal work and production.

Then, the magic operation that was enough to be the beginning of the 'storm' that swept the entire galaxy appeared.

Many local enterprises and consortiums did not realize where the problem was. Instead, they ridiculed Atlas's enterprise operation method as too rubbish, and then found the giant enterprises in the core galaxies of the Federation that they considered to be 'learning models'-that is, the military-industrial complex that was later destroyed by Atlas.

And imitated them to readjust the current enterprise structure.

The first step is to recruit a lot of administrative staff to fill the gap in this area. In this process, a lot of "relatives" will inevitably mix in.

The second step is to readjust the salary levels of all positions except middle and senior leaders, especially the salaries of the largest number of technical workers.

Of course, this "adjustment" actually refers to salary cuts.

The reason for the overall salary cut is also very simple, that is, the money saved will be used as the salary of these newly recruited administrative staff.

Because the "employee salary item" in the current fixed expenditure items of corporate operations is much higher than that of traditional companies, it is already "kind" for the bosses not to cut this proportion.

At this time, if you ask them to add an extra sum of money to pay the salary of the newly recruited employees, it must be impossible.

The daily workload and working hours of ordinary employees are constantly increasing. The "eight-hour work system" during Atlas' management has completely become a beautiful memory of the past.

Except for a few employees who protested and were fired at lightning speed, most people actually had complaints at this time, but they kept silent because they didn't want to lose their jobs.

But when rumors of salary cuts began to appear, and everyone learned that the reason for the salary cut was to give the money that should have belonged to them to others, a wonderful chemical reaction began.
