Colleague dies. Company doesn’t seem to care.

One of my colleagues died this past week. It was a heart-attack. This person leaves behind a spouse and children. The company made no statement. The company’s CEO made no statement. What actually happened was that one of the bigwigs in the company put together a gofundme for the employee. It feels as if the part where the company cares about you is now outsourced to the underlings. Shouldn’t surprise me. I had a death in the family and they were calling me 2 days after asking why my work wasn’t being done. Then I got demoted on the way to presumably being thrown out the door during the next round of firings/layoffs
