The Escapist: A great example.

So the higher-ups at the Escapist (one of the more famous videogame news channels out there) decided to fire just one important member. You can assume it's the usual BS: Cost cutting measures, making people work harder, … You know what all their employees did? They all collectively quit in response. ​ Remember that Fight Club quote? “Worker bees can leave. Even drones can fly away. The Queen is their slave”. ​ Befriend your coworkers folks. Look out for each other. Band together. If they want to throw you off the ship for dumb reasons, they shouldn't be surprised you take the ship down with you. You're a human being and you deserve to be treated as more than just a statistic.
